Happenings & Adventures at Home and Abroad...

One week into February already... where does the time go. Do you follow me on Instagram? If not, do pop over to my Instagram account allthingsnice_4life where I post almost every day and you can follow my happening here at home and of my adventures...
Below are just some of my Instagram posts from the last few weeks.
From top left, 1. A quaint Irish village centre with this house that I adore, each time I visit, I like it more and more, 2. Throwback to my visit to Cinque Terre in Italy- one of the most beautiful places I have visited, 3. My parents having fun in the desert on their holidays, 4. Some flowers to brighten up the hallway in my house, 5. Umbrella display from a shopping centre in Dubai which my mum sent to me from her holidays, 6. Sunday, myself and my husband went out for dinner, it was really cold and this wee fire was just what we wanted to warm us up, 7. Almost Spring and the cute lambs are appearing, bouncing around the fields, 8. Planning a trip back to Florence Court House and Gardens soon, this was a photo I took of the Gardener's Cottage- isn't it pretty?, 9. An elegant swan I captured who was great at posing for me.

So there you have it, a round up of my happening in the past few weeks, to see more, do visit me on Instagram and follow along if you wish

Down on the farm today....

Hello my blogger friends, visitors and anyone stopping by......

Last weekend I didn't get to go anywhere nice, the weather wasn't great so it was a stay at home weekend but sometimes I think we all need time to just relax at home, catch up on chores and meet with friends and family.

So I have no Sunday Trip photos to share with you. Hope your not too disappointed but I just had to share these few photos with you. They are taken just outside the back door of our house in the garden this week, they belong to our neighbour but I want to keep them all :) I hope you like them now... They are so so cute...

Mother and wee baby lambs

{"Come on Maaa, what are you looking at?"}

{"Oh look there is a silly girl there looking at us"}

{"Pass no remarks on her and she will go away, I prefer to eat this shrub/plant"}

{"Oh go on then, I'll pose for a second for the camera"}

I'm a big child, but when it comes to cute wee lambs I love them :) So playful and full of life :)

Why not pop over and meet the animals on the farm...

Some photographs of my boyfriend's farm. Part of his farm is in a Natural Heritage Area. This is a designation in Ireland for an area considered important for the habitats present. It also holds species of plants and animals whose habitat needs protection. There are a lot of Whooper Swans on the lake each year. The land is nestled among rolling drumlin hills and lakes and many of the fields roll down to the lakeshore. Here is a view of one of the fields across the lake which is surrounded by the lake on three sides.
The farm is both dairy and beef and I love the wee calves. My boyfriend will think I'm mad taking photographs of the calves but they are adorable and very photogenic don't you think...


The ear tags are so large, the poor calves look like they are wearing large ear rings. The ear tags have to be fixed as it is EEC law. It doesn't hurt them though as it is the same as us getting ear rings :o)


This little one has yet to get his jewellery. I really like this wee calf- look at those adorable eye lashes :o)

He's a little camera shy
And then he got use to the camera, he lost one of his ear rings too
And last but not least, how cute are these three little calves...
they all wanted to get a look at me..
And here are a few photographs of my neighbours sheep and lambs, I couldn't get close enough as they kept running away and the mothers kept hiding the lambs, sorry they are a little blurry


Wishing you all a wonderful Easter :o)

To all my dear blogger friends, I hope you have a wonderful Easter. We had snow here in Ireland this week but the weather is beginning to improve, the days are longer, the grass is getting greener, the buds are appearing on the trees, the daffodils have bloomed, the sky is getting bluer, the lambs are bouncing in the fields and all we need now is sunshine. Soon everywhere will be brimming with life. I hope you have a nice weekend with your family and friends and your loved ones. Watch out for the Easter bunny :)
