THERE MAY BE SPRING

I know it has been a very hot summer in America but here we have had a long, cold winter.  In fact, the other day the weather reporter said we had had the dullest winter since 1996. I don't know how they work that out but we certainly haven't seen the sun very much at all for months.  Everyone has been feeling it - but at last we have had a few slightly warmer days and today the sun shone (for a little while).  And some of the spring flowers have blossomed so the Monster High girls decided to investigate.


Draculara discovered the Eerlicheer daffodils - one that really makes me think Spring is on the way.  I like to smell them just like she did.



And Torelei decided to investigate the spring blossom -


Good thing she has cat genes as this involved taking her shoes off and climbing the tree.


Good thing they did it earlier today - since then we've had more wind, rain and hail.  I guess winter isn't over yet.

    Your MH girls look great outside. I like how Torelai's feet seem to stretch so that she can smell the blossoms. I love her warm orange colors.

      Yes, her bare feet really worked well for that shot - and she actually held on to the branches and balanced all by herself, yay for articulation. It was so nice to take photos outside.

    Thank you, Marta, I've been enjoying your summer posts while it's been so cold here. It was fun getting outside to take photos, I'm hoping I'll be able to do some more soon.
