Bluebells & Friends

We enjoyed another visit to the Bluebell Woods at Ashridge Estate yesterday...

Madeline thought this was the perfect place to stand to show off the bluebells behind her.

She is wearing a newly knitted dress and her boots.

She was joined by a couple of friends, Hitty Madge and Miss Hilda Bonnet

You can't help but smile when surrounded by such wondrous beauty

and gorgeous scent 

There were lots of opportunities to just sit and enjoy

which of course Madeline made the most of.

Sitting in a mossy nook.

What a lovely way to spend the afternoon.

Yesterday Madeline was delighted to also get out to see the Bluebells. She had her new dress on which she thought would 'match' the colours well.

They were absolutely stunning, a bit earlier this year so we were glad we went.

Fortunately for Madeline she doesn't feel the cold...it was freezing!  Probably between 5 and 8 degrees Celsius!

She took a bit of time out to sit, enjoy and inhale the aroma.

Such pretty flowers

A very lovely way to spend a couple of hours.
