May Play Day Projects

Wow!  Two posts in one day!  I can't believe it!

Here are our projects for May Play Day!  We made cards and projects for the guys in our lives this month.  As I was working on the projects, Doyle saw what I was making and said, "Your projects look more masculine this month."  I told him that was a good thing and explained our theme for this month.
