Igloo anyone??

Over the past week we have had quite a bit of snow, at first it is great fun. But then it just become annoying, the road turn to slush, pathways get icy, and there is lots of wet cloth hanging around the house from children playing in the snow.
Lexy decided that she would make the most of it and make an igloo. Using a washing up tub she has gathered snow from around the garden, the hours of entertainment have been great as the girls have been on a mid term break. We are still only half way there, the girls are hoping that the snow doesn't melt till they're done building.

Watch out for the snow balls!!!!!

the apple blossom tree that I look at from my kitchen window. Isn't it just beautiful?

We had snow!!! At last!!!

These are the amazing sights that we woke up to yeaterday (Sat). We were all excited to finally have some snow worth playing in. Our last big snow fall was in March 2006.

This is the same photo from my last post, just this time no sun but plenty of snow

Alyssa was only 13months old last time we had good snow and didn't like the cold wet feel one bit, but this time round it was a totally different story. We couldn't get her inside, and this morning (sunday) she has little red cheeks from the cold and wind.


There was just no stopping her.

Lexy and her friend (not pictured) had great fun in the snow, making snow men and throwing snow balls at each other.
