Oh man, it has been a miserable winter! For the past 7 winters that we’ve been here, we’ve never had much snow during the winter. Only twice did we have a bit of snow on the ground, but it didn’t last more than a few days. Most of the time, the snow barely lasts a day on the ground. Well, this winter, it has been COLD and it has been snowing! AND the snow lasted! Well, Ok, most of the time, it turned to yucky slush, BUT we did have lovely snow once lasting for about 1 week. The girls had a great time, especially the first day where Daddy and them built a HUGE snowman and then had snow ball fights. Unfortunately, I didn’t get home till really late and couldn’t see the snowman, let alone take a photo of it! By the time I got to it (on the weekend), he was quite pathetic looking as you can see from the picture. But Mr. snowman was good looking when he was ‘fresh’. He had a carrot-nose, with eyes and even teeth! His twigged hands were ‘scary’ and Daddy’s hat on his head was perfect. And I was just tickled that Bibou could describe ‘her’ snowman to me, including his carrot nose! I was most impressed. The poor fishies though, their pond was totally frozen!
























The cold weather has meant that the girls are all bundled up, wearing layers after layers. They've got cute scarfs, hats and even gloves (which they keep missing of course!) The girls have been receiving gorgeous winter coats from kongkong and they are totally enjoying showing them off!
