A million reasons to smile ...
There must be at least a million here - beautifully blue and enchanting
A walk in the aptly named bluebell woods of "Heaven Farm.
"Can you smell Bluebells?"
"I can smell heaven."
(I Capture the Castle, the film
The sound of the bluebell railway in the distance as we walk through the woods
The enchantment of a magical place
Sitting in a dandelion covered field eating our picnic
Playing frisbee in the sun
Making Spring yellow floral garlands and holding them against the bluest of blue skies
Seeing my daughter, happy and worry free...
That's worth more than a million of anything.

Hi Kim,
Bluebell woods really are a little slice of heaven on earth.
I'm hoping the ones in the wood near us will still be flowering this Saturday, so that I can take my MIL for a walk when she comes to stay...
Fingers crossed,

So, so beautiful. The Bluebell woods were one of my Dad's most favourite places and one of the last places he went before he died. It really made me happy to see your photos and think of my Daddy.

I can sense how happy you were in the sunshine amongst the flowers - it almost transcends words. A lovely post.

Oh, I completely agree. It is such a blessing when there is no attitude or complaining or whining. They're just kids being kids and loving life. I LOVE the pictures of the dandelions against the sky. You should enter them in a photo contest! I am not kidding.
seeing our children happy is worth everything...your bluebell wood is beautiful...I would love to go to one as beautiful as that...ours are still a little behind....
Nice to see you back and sounding happier. The bluebells are wonderful, you are a bit ahead of us with them. Love your dandelion garland , looks beautiful against the blue of the sky.
I've never seen a 'bluebell wood' but your photos make it quite real.
Lovely post.
Good thing spring is finally here, isn’t it?
Just lovely, bluebells and sunshine it doesn't get much better.

How funny, I have just posted on bluebells too. I love this time of year and that looks like a wonderful day.
Oh my have not got to a bluebell wood yet this year, is it really that time already, well guess what I will be doing this weekend. Its a wonderful uplifting sensation walking through bluebells. Just lovely.
You make me homesick! there are so few bluebells here in France........though I have to admit to importing a little plant!
beautiful photo's, i'm smiling too. have a great weekend
Hi Kim, bluebell woods always remind me of when I was small.
we drove through a bluebell wood near Bodium, beautiful and so quiet.

I have a small area full of blue bells, which I can look out onto.
Mine arn't out yet so I am looking forward to them. . . . . There is nothing more beautiful at this time of year.

My kind of day, especially to be spending it in the sunshine too. I do love to see the bluebells at this time of year. This place is definitely one to bear in mind for a future visit. x
Hello, I don't know how I have been missing your posts. I shall add you to my blog lines. Every time you mention Heaven Farm it makes me chuckle - next time you come you should pop in for tea and cakes given that it's within walking distance of my house! :-)
