SNAP!

My friend HELENA has come up with another great photographic meme for 2016.....titled SNAP, the idea is 'to share a set of between 2 and 4 images that have a visual link such as colour, shape or subject that form a photo essay (or anything else you care to share as a visual set' 

Like many part of the northern hemisphere, Spring is coming early in our valley:

.....which means the almond blossom is starting to appear...it's sparse at the moment, but give it a week or two and it will be in full bloom.

Thanks again to Helena for coming up with another clever idea.

Thanks for dropping by!

Take care of you

THE MEERKAT'S BACK!

This was Boo this morning

before I dropped her off at Julie (the local dog groomer), and this is the little meerkat who was returned to me!

After having fluffy dog all Winter, I forget how funny she looks when she has the first cut of the Spring/Summer!

I actually thought she may be 'in the huff' with me, as it turns out that this is the coldest day we've had for about three weeks!..but no, she is still my friend I'm glad to say.

Hope it was warmer where you are today

Thanks for dropping by!

Take care of you

Blogging for Scrapbookers Prompt 5

I'm not really sticking to Shimelle's Prompt order ( though  I do feel that yesterday's fitted Prompt 4, so I think that means I've only missed #3).


I was hoping to get a LO done, using these pictures of the flowers blooming in my garden just now, for this  SPRING FLING CHALLENGE  over at 'Scrapbook Challenges', but haven't got around to it yet. After reading Prompt #5, I decided that I would use them here and hopefully get to that LO soon(ish)

My beautiful Magnolia

Aquilegia are my VERY favourite spring flowers....

so I have a few of these!

the beautifully scented Jasmine

and, of course no Spring garden would be complete without Narcissi!

Springtime is SO my favourite season!
