Spring!

At last Spring is here - the sun is shining, the Spring bulbs have flowered but best of all ...

... dear sweet Tommy is stirring in his box. He's not quite awake so he will remain in his box until there's actually some warmth in the sunshine. I do miss him during the Winter months and worry that he won't survive but here he is.

I've been stitching some more on Anna Millet 1895 SAL with Yuko and will take a picture in the next day or two. Thank you for all the lovely comments on this one - much appreciated!

Thanks for visiting

Take care

Ha, spring? Yes, the sun is shining but we have about 70 cm snow, so no bulb flowers for quite some time :(

Your tulips look so pretty! I am so happy Tommy is waking and rustling about. I like seeing updates on him!

Whenever I hear that Tommy is waking up, I know Spring & warm weather can't be far away! This is great news, Carol!

I'm envious of your sunshine! We have icy winds and rain - with a little snow on the hills! I think I'd like to be a tortoise!

Oh too cute!! I am glad I am not the only crazy one with torties. My 3 are starting to stir as well but its still way to cold for them outside. I need to post pics of them on my blog.

Welcome back Spring Herald Tommy ! It's still a bit cold early in the morning, so don't wake up too soon.
Love the crocus. Ours are not out yet.

Hi Carol! I always look forward to seeing your first pictures of Tommy each year. :o) Then I know spring is just around the corner. I am so happy to see he made it through the winter and look forward to seeing him roam around your yard again.
