May flowers

So, Alan and I did visit Plymouth Rock last week and saw the Mayflower replica, but we didn't take any pictures.  It was super super windy, and Alan wasn't in a very good picture-taking mood. :)  But we had lots of fun and visited the cape as well.  So I thought I'd put a few pictures up of the actual May flowers in our yard, since I realized that the only pictures I had posted previously were when we were covered with several feet of snow.  
The beautiful dogwood tree in our front yard
And we have a couple of lilac trees in the back yard as well
Here is our little garden area.  We only planed a few tomato and pepper plants and there are some hydrangea bushes, raspberries, and little flowers the landlord had planted previously.  We also planted some squash seeds along the foundation, but as it looks like a patch of dirt as yet, I'll spare you the pic.
New season, new sport.  Still need some practice with this one.  So far, Alan prefers pitching. :)
Loving the bike 
And really loving the park. 
We love having our own little yard and a park so close by as well, in addition to a million fun parks in the area.  Alan would be outside every minute if he could.  Turns out a yard is a little more work than an apartment, but a lot of fun as well. :)
