Dear blog friends! Myohmyohmy, life is unusual busy here at the Walker residence. Kitchen redecoration, several travels, a garden that needs full devotion in Spring…most of it fun. However, my pace of life is usually very slow so when things speed up, I have a hard time moving along.
I have neglected you all terribly. So sorry about that.
Even too busy to do much drawing but I did make these two birthday cards for two veryveryvery special people.
So I have decided to take a break from blogging! I am going to miss you all terribly.
I wish you all Happy Easter and I hope we can all enjoy good spring weather.
Een ongebruikelijke drukke bedoening hier in Huize Walker! Keuken wordt eens opgeknapt, de tuin heeft alle aandacht natuurlijk nodig, er wordt gereisd ook…ohohoh, ik heb mijn blogvrienden verwaarloosd!!! Dus ik heb de knoop doorgehakt en neem eens even een pauze van bloggen!
Ik wens iedereen fijn Paasdagen toe en een heerlijke lente!
Love and Liefs,
Johanna

Good morning Johanna,
No need to apologize. There are more things in life than blogging.
I love yout Easter decorations. They’re wonderful.
Happy Easter to you and yours, too,
Pit
Thanks Pit! I hope you had a great long weekend too!
Hi Johanna,
Tes, I had great weekends – Easter, but especially the last one, with a fantastic bicycle ride here in the Texas Hill Country [42 miles in exceptional weather]. I’ll blog about it soon. And I also got some great shots of an early morning in the Hill Country [https://pitsbilderbuch.wordpress.com/].
Have a great weekend,
Pit
Those cards are so original and cute. Happy Easter from me and Kerfe.
Thank you!! I am happy to say, the were well received ;o) I hope you all had a good Easter weekend too!
Happy Easter Johanna, I love all your homey images. The knitted eggs are precious. Have a nice break and I’ll look forward to seeing you when you return.
Thanks Sharon!!
Lovely photos Johanna! Have a wonderful break, and share with us when you have time!
Thank you!!
I’ll miss you and your chronicle of such a lovely creative life. Have a good break! I, too, will be eagerly awaiting your return.
Thank you Laurie xoxo
Happy Easter and have a good Spring Break. 🙂 I’ll miss all your beautiful drawings, but I understand. Life is meant for living and spring is a busy time. Enjoy yourself.
Thnak you Judy, and I bet your garden (and life) is buzzing with activity too!
Enjoy everything that Springtime brings to you Johanna! We’ll see you when we see you xo
Thanks and I love this hairdo too!
Happy Easter, Johanna! Life gets busy and it can sweep us all up. It’s thoughtful to explain your absence, but I understand and I’ve been there, too. But, I think we all understand, though. We’ll miss you too, but that’s the selfish part of us because we enjoy seeing your work. Enjoy the break with the family and we hope you come back refreshed. :O)
Thanks Paul that is indeed a lovely comment!
‘o)
Enjoy! I love these eggs
Thanks Alie!!
Your daffodils look beautiful and I like the blue Robin’s egg too! 💙 I recently took a blogging break myself. 😃 So I completely understand but I will miss you! 💖Look forward to your return! Happy Easter and Spring! 🌈🌷🐰💐💕
Thanks Jill, hope your was a good one too!
Thanks for letting us know you are busy but otherwise well.
Spring calls us outdoors. Enjoy the time away from your computer and your blog. xo
Thank you Alys!
I love your knitted eggs and Oskar’s birthday card. Enjoy your time off and Happy Easter!
Thank you Lisa!
Spring and summer are a good time to take a break. Hugs to you and Charley. Enjoy!
An extra cuddle for the lovely Cupcake xoxox
Happy Easter Johanna! I love the penguin-Enjoy your time off! And pets to Charlie!!
Thanks and Cheers to all of you!!!
Happy Easter!
Thanks Bruce, I hope yours was a good one too!
You and me both. I’m moving slower and there is more to do than hours in the day. Sometimes you just have to give yourself a break. I have several times. Life is to be savored rather than rushed through. Enjoy your spring work and your Easter.
Perfectly phrased, kindred spirits!
Love your photos and I can see Charley is looking her gorgeous regal self. Have a wonderful Easter and enjoy the busy-ness, Johanna. Happy Spring!
Thanks Laura, I hope you can keep up too in this busy time of the year for you!!
Thanks Johanna!
I was just beginning to wonder what had happened to you so it’s good to know all is well! Taking a break is all well and good but I hope you won’t stay away tooooooo long! Happy Spring, Johanna! XOXOX
Thanks Kerry, Charley sends kisses and hugs too
Happy Spring, Happy Easter Johanna! A break is a good thing, just slow down and enjoy your time. We’ll see you on your return. Take care!
I love your cards, warm home images and darling Charley!
Thanks Kathe!!!
Have a wonderful break from the blogosphere; we on the Homestead will miss you xxx
Cheers to you all xoxo
Don’t worry, Johanna, at least the easter eggs will be warm with such nice pullovers, and good to hear, the flu has gone by now. Enjoy your break and welcome back some time!
Thanks Sabine, wishes you well!!
Happy Easter dear Johanna! I understand completely why you need a break from blogging – I have been considering it myself. Enjoy your time with family and in the garden
Clare xx
Thanks Clare! xoxox
Johanna, These images make me feel right at home, especially Easter bunny and Charley. Enjoy your break. Time to create and rest and do other stuff. See you when you return! 🙂
Thank you my dear!
Smashing photos loved the cockerel card, Take care and come back soon. I will miss your great sketches, drawings and photos.
Thank you !!!
Beautiful pictures, Johanna, you have amazing taste! I love the birthday cards (By the way, my brothers’s name is Oscar). Have a wonderful break and looking forward to reading your posts when you are back. Enjoy Spring! Xoxo 💐
Thank you! xoxo
I will miss you too! Enjoy the beautiful spring weather. We are just starting to warm up here, so I will be outside more and on my computer less too.
Happy Easter and hugs, Anne
Thanks Anne…the boys in Toronto were covered in snow this week,. I hope Ottawa is better!
We still have snow & cold here…Spring is greatly delayed.
Johanna, I’m FINALLY doing a bit of WP Blog catch up, and very much understand the challenge of keeping up with many things that are loved.
As with the others, I wish you a bright and happy spring!
Thanks Laurie!!!
Some flowers as pictured add so much life to any room. I try to remember to get some now and then.
Could not agree more, and I love them from the garden!
Not a problem.There is life outside of blogging. We’ll still be here.
PS I hope you had a lovely Easter and pass on a hug to Charlie from me.
Thanks Joanna, from Charley too!
Happy (belated) Easter from me too and godspeed.
Thanks, I hope yours was a good one too!
Belated Happy Easter
Thanks!
Hello Johanna and Charley, I’ve been desperately zipping here and there trying to do a catch up. I see that you are very busy with life too. How awesome is it that our lives are so rich and full. Will simply say Happy Spring to you and all those you love dearly. I’ve been asked to do a class at Urban so that’s my latest thing. Big hugs all around. xo K
