February Half Term :: Part 3

Hello Lovelies,
on Wednesday we woke to sunshine again....such a treat in February..........


I took this photo of our muddy walking boots from Tuesday's walk as it made me smile. They are not the most glamorous footwear, but they speak to me of family times and my love of walking.........

 I tend to wait for the mud to dry then brush it off with a stiff brush.....maybe that's not the recommended method, but it works for me.

In the afternoon I went to check up on the lone Lamb we spotted on Sunday. He was still the only baby...........


But he looked well, grazing quietly with his Mum........


I stood and watched him for a little while and when he wandered off his mum called him back with a baaa......and he responded with with that sweet  high pitched baa in return........


Yesterday afternoon it really felt like spring. When I popped out in the car it said 12 degrees Celsius.
And I had to stop to capture the beauty of these golden crocuses in the churchyard........


Such a cheery sight......


Just give me a little sunshine and something pretty to photograph and I'm a happy girl.

  8. Cute little lamb, a little sunshine makes all the difference. I'm with you, dried mud is far easier to remove x

  9. Glad the lamb is doing ok. Seeing your muddy shoes reminds me that I have to clean up mine which got very muddy on our walk yesterday. I love to see all the Spring flowers and those crocuses are stunning. After a gorgeous day yesterday we have a rainy grey day today, hope it is better where you are. xx

  15. Ah, I am so envious of all the green you have. I live in the American Midwest and it's white and grey here. And under all those layers of ice and snow the grass always dies off and is an ugly khaki brown. I miss Europe so much (I am German).

  18. Signs of spring, new birth, emerging flowers and the golden sun. Yay! Even though the weathermen are forecasting snow this weekend and the ice is thick, I am ever hopeful. (Love the boots, like ducks in a row.) ; )

  24. Like CJ, I think the crocus and church photos are wonderful - especially so as I am sitting in my office and it's windy and pouring with rain! Wishing you a great weekend. x

  25. The lambs are adorable! I wish there were some around here! When we were still living near the coast, I loved walking the the water walls as there were tons of little lambs...

    Take care
