Come rain or shine...

Bollan came along to visit my grandmother this weekend, and she'd been looking forward to roaming around in her very big garden. Unfortunately it started to rain on Friday afternoon, and it was either raining, windy or wet all weekend. It's not easy being a little Boll, she doesn't like to get her bum wet!

Glyptodon also came with us, but he took one look at the weather and stayed in! But Bollan was determined to come outside with us and do a little gardening, so she made us dig up an old rain hat from the bottom of some closet. It's way too big for her, of course, but at least it keeps her nice and dry :)


On Sunday afternoon, just before we left, the sun came out for a few minutes. The Great Boll was very quick to run outside, but the ground was still wet, so she had to jump from plant to plant like a little Tarzan hedgie :)


We are going back there today, and the sun is still shining, so Bollan is hoping for a lot more garden fun in the week to come :) Keep watching, there may be more cuteness coming up soon :D

Flower Power :)

The other day we took Bollan out for a trip to the botanical gardens, which we never visit despite the fact that we are practically neighbors. Bollan loves flowers, they are almost as pretty as she is!

There were so many colors and so many different smells, Bollan had to try them all :)


After smelling all those flowers Bollan's nose was covered with pollen in all the colors of the rainbow. Sadly I didn't get to take a picture of it, but it was very funny :)

It was fun to sit in the Rhododendron bush and blend in with the pretty flowers! 


Then she made herself even prettier with a wreath of Dandelions :)


There was even a pond with fish in the garden, but sadly they were a little too quick to get clear pictures of...


After all that running around and smelling stuff it was good to sit down on a park bench and relax in the sun for a while.


We definitely need to go back there some time :)
