I've been neglecting my poor blog, that's the trouble when the sun comes out, too much to do. I popped on the other day and noticed 2 new followers, Lyn and Sylvia, which brought me up to 49 today I see it's 48 so I hope I haven't upset anyone! This happened before it was on 39 and suddenly went back to 37, strange, blogging is definately not good for paranoia!
Anyway more importantly my gorgeous Easter swap arrived from Nicky at hollypops I was thoroughly spoiled with a beautful hand painted card,
the cutest bunny ever and a very pretty lavender filled heart.
Look at this exquisite tray cloth and embroidered mats, aren't they beautiful?
And finally some very pretty napkins oh and of course some chocolate eggs and a Lindt bunny, don't know were they've gone!
Thankyou so much Nicky for such a lovely swap and thankyou also to Pixiedust for organizing it. My faith in swaps is now restored, after not receiving my Christmas decoration swap so I've now signed up for Silkie Sue's freestyle swap and have been partnered with Lyn .....Hi Lyn.

Now on to what else has been happening here .... Lily and Tara have been decorating gingerbread bunnies.
Now on to what else has been happening here .... Lily and Tara have been decorating gingerbread bunnies.
Lily made some Easter stick puppets.
And we went to Eden to see the fantastic display of Spring bulbs.
The smell of Hyacinths is overwhelming.
Beautiful tulips everywhere in an array of colours.
And some amarylis
Daffodils
Anemones
And this delightful display advertising the big lunch on the 19th of July, you can look on the website for the event in your area.
Now I must get ready for toddler group, it's a couple of hours before it starts but Lily likes to take her time getting ready!

Your photos are wonderful. I love the flowers. Now the weather is better Im not wanting to blog as much and I think alot of people are feeling the same. My dashboard has went haywire several times and Ive lost who I am following so I put my favourite blogs in my bookmarks. It would take too long to go around everyone to tell them thats why I dont appear to be following anymore, maybe thats is why yours has changed, because people use bloglines and Google reader etc. Ive lost alot of followers (but I think thats because Im boring!!! LOL!) X
What a riot of colour. Lovely pics. SueX
Love your blog.
Our anemones, hyacinths and tulips are in full bloom now and really make the heart feel glad when you look at them.

You've had a really busy Easter. Thanks for the lovely photos of Eden. I've visited there but at another time of year. It was lovely to see how things change season to season.

I was rather upset to find out that you did not get your Christmas swap. I wish you had told me as I would have tried to chase it up for you. I am sorry to say that those that pulled out or failed to deliver ( and I think it was only two, now three) were from outside the UK which makes you feel that maybe the post is at fault so you faithfully wait don't you. Nest time I may open it to people I 'trust' or just UK bloggers.
Glad things turned out better this time.
Hi,
I just heard that something went wrong with your christmas package and I'm so sorry to hear that. That time I used a small and new postoffice and lately I hear from more people that things went wrong ther. So now I will use the big postoffice on the other side of town from now on.
Since it's no longer christmas I will send you some other things. Are then any special things you wpould like to receive? Please let me know. And again I'm very sorry!
It's me again!!!
Sorry, I have just noticed I can delete my previous message with the email address on-sorry to be a pain!
I have already started to think about the swop and I am very excited about it. 'speak' soon
Thanks for the comments on my blog, they are much appreciated.
Love
Lyn
