Snow at Snowdrop Cottage...

Yesterday afternoon our little market town was hit hard by the big white fluffy stuff!!
Serious white fluffy stuff came down most of the afternoon & settled very quickly.

Covering everything in its path in a thick white blanket.

Waking this morning to beautiful scenery..i love icicles there is something so magical about them..these are on the side of our front porch.

Our street...
So the four of us wrapped up warm & set off for our sunday stroll....

Through the park in our street....

The trees looked so beautiful decorated delicatly in white...

The band stand had a dusting...

Our boys loved it especially osi..he always has & gets so excited he cant get out the door quick enough!

The pond was frozen solid....


Someone's snowman minus one arm as the boys are rather partical to a stick or two!!


I love pictures of trees in black & white..i think they look simply stunning.


Off we set along the snowy pathway...


Mummy's turn to snow play!!

Which way now then?

Through the pretty gateway...

Come on you two!!

Time to chase daddy...

The red rosehips stood out against their white background....

Across the fields covered in a white blanket...

Our little white market town in the distance...

And home to our beautiful tree...x

Up for adoption is this very special prim style little bear by the very talented Wendy Meagher of Whendi's Bears in the US.

This is little prim bear whos stands at approx 10'' tall, is made from a hand dyed aged mohair with german glass eyes & vintage textiles. This little chap is number two of a edition of two made.

I thought i would offer him to you lovely bloggers first before listing him on one of the auction sites were he is sure to find a new home.

Today's the day the teddy bears...


are looking for loving new homes....
Above we have the very beautiful 'Devon' who is a homeless bear & one of a kind. Devon stands at 10'' tall & is made from mohair as are all the bears you will see.

Now we have 'Chloe' a old time looking girl with a dear face. Chloe is one of a kind & stands at 18'' tall.


Dear sweet 'Oscar'..pictures never do him the justice that he deserves. Oscar is a limited edition & stands at 17'' tall.


Now we have this cheeky pair both by Beru Bears & are both one of a kind & stand at 9''.
The boy is called 'Archie' & the little girl has no name.
They can be seperated but in a ideal world it would be nice for them to stay together.

And finally we have the very pretty 'Millie' by Valdorf bears & is one of a kind. Millie stands at 14'' tall.
All of these bears are collectors pieces & not intended for children,all the bears come with their tags apart from the little beru bear girl with no name.
All the bears are in perfect condition & from my smoke free home!
If you are interested in any of the bears or would like any more info please leave me a comment & i will come back to you asap.
I hope to do a update on my boys sometime this week..so watch this space! x

Murphy's Diary...

Hello!! Here we are,i bet you have been wondering were we have been?!!
Nearly a whole month since i have blogged..there just dosen't seem to be enough hours in the day at the moment!
We thought you might like to see what we,when i say we i really mean 'murphy' has been up too.

This was his first trip too the beach at mersea island,which is were murphy came from.

He was very brave..not scared of the sea,people or other doggies...

& of course found a stick just like his big brother!

With daddy...

I think his trip to the beach tired his little paws out!

Loves cuddles...

& toys...

my osi is being so very good & sharing his daddy's lap with his little bro!

Now fourteen weeks old & going for 'walkies',thanks goodness!
He is quite good on the lead,i have now got them on a double lead which makes things easier & murphy has learnt to 'sit & 'wait' at the curb!

I was'nt going to put as many pics on this time but when i came to it i could'nt choose between them,sorry!

Quite likes watching a bit of t.v.

Butter would'nt melt!!

First walk over the fields...

Behind bars!!


Brotherly love!

Power nap!


Murphy starts puppy classes tomorrow,which i think will be good for him.
I want him to mix well,love of my life dosen't mix well with other dogs even though he went too puppy & training classes.

Oscar always licks out my muiller pot in the mornings & now murphy has to chew it afterwards!


Matching neckerchiefs!



Learning too share.

This is what my days & weeks have been filled with really..my boys with a bit of running thrown in here & there...

& at the weekend we celebrated my lovely mum & dad's ruby wedding anniversary!
Happy 40th anniversary mum & dad..we love you loads. xxxx
Thats all for now...hope not to leave it so long this time. x
