Dreaming of spring

The weather here has been taunting me lately. Some days the skies are grey, it's cold, it's raining... Then we have days where I have to leave the park because it's just too hot in the sun and it feels like summer has arrived early! These warmer days have me longing for winter to be well and truly over. I'm dreaming of warmth & sunshine, dreaming of spring; my favourite season when we lived in Holland. The sun shone, people flocked to outdoor cafes and the tulips...


Oh, the tulips were magnificent!







Hurry up spring... This Mumma is ready for more reliable warmth & sunshine!

Tulips have to be one of my favourite flowers, especially now that they have so many different variations and colours. New follower from GFC hop!

I was just thinking how it will be tulip season in Holland soon and how I would love more pictures of Ella tiptoeing through the tulips now that she is older!

Oh my goodness! Those tulips are just gorgeous!!

I am ready for Spring, too!! We are putting up a new fence around our backyard within the next couple of weeks, and as soon as it's finished, I am hopefully going to get a garden started. Now that LP is older, it'll be fun to teach him how to plant, and then he can watch his food grow. :)
