Winter Weekend

Today we can finally say "Goodbye" to January! I don't know about you but I am rather glad, I always feel Spring is within touching distance once we get into February. And that is always a good thing isn't it? I have spent January looking at my poor wintery garden desperate to trim and tidy but knowing that I can't makes it worse and makes me pine for Spring all the more.

The collage above just about sums up our weekend - did you spot the 'triple choc cookies' tucked away in the corner! These were a request from my husband but I am afraid to say the biscuit jar emptied far too quickly! We had a very lazy weekend pottering around the house, catching up with bits and bobs.

As you can see we awoke Saturday morning to a light dusting of snow, which had fallen on frozen ground so the world twinkled around us! We have also been fortunate to have these amazing sunsets over the past few days when the sky is filled with the most wonderful colours and then the moon is full in a very clear night sky.

What did you get up to this weekend, hope you all had a good one, that was filled with fun. Are you looking forward to February? For us this month is full of birthdays so lots of gifts to buy and cards to post. And that all starts this week with my husbands birthday on Friday, but more about that later...

Here's wishing everyone a great week ahead and happy February to you all!

P.S Yes, those are more tulips that have made their way into my house!

  4. My blog list says you last updated 4 weeks ago! Silly thing... Sometimes computers are so glitchy.

    Anyway, Happy February! I know we feel just the same about it. Spring must really be on its way when January is over. We spent yesterday afternoon in our garden and I just had to smile with every little green shoot I saw...

    Love your photos, Cassie. Looks like you had just the wonderful weekend you deserve. Have fun with all the birthday planning! xo

  6. I am so super excited for February, not only for Valentines Day (and a 3 day weekend) but because we're just that much closer to spring!
