Easter Monday Announcement

-

It was a lovely sunny day yesterday as I walked through beautiful countryside.


The trees still bare yet so beautiful in the long awaited sunshine.


That was perfect weather for Easter Sunday but today isn't sunny at all, pretty cold actually! I hope you're all keeping snug and warm. 
While you're sitting there I'd like to announce the winner of my giveaway.
The draw has just taken place and the random selection process has chosen........


Congratulations Denise! I'll send your prizes as soon as I get your details.

HAPPY EASTER MONDAY :)

What beautiful photos. I would love to be able to walk in your countryside. Spring came for just a few hours on Sunday but has decided to leave again. But I know she will be back soon.
