Beside Henry and my birthdays, the other big late May event in our area is that the irises are in bloom at the big Iris Gardens around the corner from our house. This year they had a big festival to celebrate the peak weekend, and I was excited to see that they had face painting.
We stood in a loooong line, but I was very patient until it was my turn. I knew exactly what I wanted: a Hello Kitty painting. The woman went right to work.
And here's the finished work:
Doesn't it look cute? I made sure to pose with some of the irises before we left.
Catch you next year, irises!
