For me, May is always a flurry of activity, and this year was no exception! It kicked off with my boyfriend's graduation ceremony, then my birthday, and my bf's birthday all in a span of 12 days. At the same time the museum offered me another part-time position, so I spent the last week learning my new responsibilities at the front desk. Needless to say, a lot has happened over the past month and I just wanted to share some of the wonderful, joyful moments in my life right now.

First up: graduation! Full of pomp and circumstance, as it should be :)
My parents and I were all recognized as alumni and got front-row seats at the ceremony. I took tons of pictures, and cheered proudly.
For my birthday, my friends too me to Pickety Place, which is an adorable cottage in the middle of nowhere that plans it's menu based on the herbs and plants it grows on it's own property! It also has a shop where you can buy some of their products. I highly recommend it for a relaxing outing in the countryside.
Then Zach's birthday! Here's the cake I made for him. Chocolate - his favorite (although his absolute tippity-top favorite is his mom's "black magic" cake. I'll never be able to compete with that).
Then Zach and I and all of his friends hiked Mt Monadnock. Our military friend hiked with all of his gear on, which was quite exhausting. I struggled a lot carrying nothing but water and sandwiches. Of course, the men decided to take the steepest trail!
Top o' the mountain. Happy Birthday, Zach!
