Mayday Friends -Postcard Friendship Friday #504

I love Mayday.  When I was a little girl we would gather long pieces of grass, braid them, then sew them into little baskets which we filled with flowers.  We would give them to our neighbors and to our sweet little Grandmother next door.

I remember dancing the maypole at my high school.  I wore a beautiful purple dress, one of the few brand new things I'd ever bought.  Funny thing, I still have it in my costume closet!

I hope you have a sweet weekend even with the shut down!  Happy Postcard Friendship Friday!

May Day Romance -Postcard Friendship Friday #166

I have lots of lovely memories about May Day.  Sissy and I would braid long strands of new grass, then we would sew the braids into tiny baskets, which we would then fill with flowers.  When I think of May Day--I can almost feel the warmth of the sun on our shoulders, smell the aroma of fresh grass and fragrant flowers.  It was the scent of Spring.

When I was a freshman in high school, our big celebration was May Day.  I still have the purple dress I wore as we danced around the Maypole.  Mom bought it for me new.  For PE we spent weeks learning the intricate dance which left a beautiful pattern of ribbon on the pole.  I have always loved May Day.

Happy Postcard Friendship Friday, dear ones. May the Fragrance of Springtime fill your hearts.
