Adopted Max!

After taking care of Max the last weeks we decided to continue taking care of him and talked to the owner last night about it. He lives alone and doesn't have much time for Max. It was no problem and we had agreed if we are away for a couple of days especially during weekends we can bring Max to him.
The owner was here last night, Max was happy to see him but when the time's come for him to leave, Max just stayed where he was ...lying infront of me and doesn't want to follow him...it seems he did expected to stay behind!

This picture was taken last sunday at the dyke. It was sunny, really nice weather so quite some people are out with their pets.

((You can click on all pictures to enlarge if you want))
Received a couple of surprises lately!

This is from Anna from Poland! See the very cute cute bunny. I LOVE it! Thanks so much, Anna. HOpe you get my e-mail last night.

And this one from Anette. Thanks so much. I haven't made any Easter ornaments yet this year so i am very happy to received these lovely pieces!

Here's a couple of pictures taken during my walk with a friend yesterday afternoon. Lovely crocuses, isn't it?? Just a pity it will not last long! I am glad i am on time to take pictures, i think in a couple of days these will be gone.



Thank you all so much for visiting especially to those who takes time to leave me a comment. I really, really appreciate them all.
I hope you are all having a wonderful week.

Oh, I'm so happy for you all! You will take such good care of Max. By the way, have I ever mentioned :-) that he's such a handsome dog.

Love all the crocus. They are just beautiful. And even though it may be chilly and gray they are a promise of sunshine and warmth.

PS. Somehow I missed your last posting but I want to say I love your mattress pincushions. They are gorgeous!

I am SO happy that Max has you in his life!!

The crocuses are gorgeous. Nowhere but Holland have I seen such amazing displays of crocuses. We have a hill on this property that would be stunning with a carpet of crocuses in the spring.... :)
