i want to bow down and kiss the earth for bringing spring to us this week - the sun coming out, and the simple joy of being able to spend all day outside and open kitchen windows and doors has made me feel like an entirely new person!
we had a beautiful, sunny weekend...spent crafting, enjoying friends at a birthday party, playing for hours outside, riding bikes galore, journal writing on the grass and lying in the sunshine reading a yummy new recipe book.
spring! yes, yes and YES.
Now we know why its called 'The Joys of Spring' - sounds like a lovely weekend !

See, all that hard slog of winter makes you enjoy it all that much more. Didn't see your text until we were just about to leave...had a busy weekend working on the house anyway, but we are up for all of next week...and the 2 weekends either side. I WILL CALL YOU!!

Yay!! I've been loving spring too, I am just wishing she'd stick around a bit more consistently, but any appearance is greatly appreciated!

Over here in England we have had the most wonderful Spring weekend too. The sunshine and fresh winds are amazing to feel after the coldness of Winter.
