One white Christmas, coming up.
"It doesn't show signs of stopping..."
Our drive to the Norwich Football match today
(yes, we are THAT stupid. it may look warm and cozy, but it was -5c)
Our weather forecast says SNOW for the next five days!!(yes, we are THAT stupid. it may look warm and cozy, but it was -5c)

I am NOT complaining (despite the fact that the bike is still not in our possession, I believe in miracles).
We have wood, we have food and the hubby is on leave. There's four very excited kids --one is a toddler who has never really experienced this before.
Perfect.
The first snowy morning at 6.45 am, Miss Ky and Mr. A2 couldn't wait another moment. On went the wellies and out they went. Those red lips are from all the snow they were eating. Yes, Miss Ky IS in a summer nightgown. with wellington boots. and a cardigan sweater.

We have discovered something very important... the girl doesn't seem to be wired for pain. The other kid came in crying because his feet got so cold, but we had to physically pull her in with her hands glowing red and her legs like Popsicles and she never even noticed there was a problem...


This one managed to find a village snowball fight.
Our back garden after the first four inches fell. Two days ago
My camera lens cap is out there somewhere...
it's still snowing.

In case we lose power again or better yet, I get too caught up in the Norman Rockwell-ness of it all,
I want to wish you all a very Merry Christmas, Happy (belated) Hanukkah, joyous Kwanzaa, etc...

Sometime around bedtime yesterday, when the snow was still falling and the garden was enveloped in darkness, Her Highness informs us that we "hafta go find (her) money".
It was in the tea kettle she was holding when she made a snow angel. The sad thing is, this girl is a klepto. No telling whose money it was or how much.

One kettle of British coins, could be several pounds
Pint-sized snow angel? Priceless.
You can't buy that with MasterCard.

Enjoy--times like that can be very cozy.
ReplyDeleteHope you get a Christmas miracle re: the present.
It is gorgeous. Had a little snow in Michigan today, but no child here to enjoy it (oddly, my elderly onlaws didn't run outside to play on it!)
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas
How beautiful .. the snow.. the tales.. the kidlets. Hope you have a wonderful holiday. :)
ReplyDeleteJust beautiful! A true postcard....and that Miss Ky? I am not the least surprised;)
ReplyDeleteWhat a fantastic photo montage! I'm so JEALOUS!!!
ReplyDeleteThat no pain thing? It might just be the age. When Mae and Oliver were two and three, we took them to the beach for the first time. In Florida, in December. The water was COLD. Their lips were bright blue but we couldn't pry them away. That changed as they got older.
Looks like they are having so much fun. Enjoy every moment! :)
ReplyDeleteMerry merry Christmas to you and yours this week!
beautiful pictures J...
ReplyDeleteWhat lovely winter pictures! Enjoy and stay warm!
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas!
Gorgeous-ness!! Beautiful photos.
ReplyDeleteHope you have/are having a beautiful Christmas week!!
Those are great pics! I got cold just looking at them.
ReplyDeleteIt is distressingly warm and humid here today in TX. Sigh...
Those pictures are just gorgeous! And your children are so beautiful! It is so N Rockwell-ish. :)
ReplyDeleteI do believe you have more snow than we do here in WI. Much more, actually. Crazy, huh?
Wonderful photos! I hope that your snow last until Christmas, if that is what you want. Strangely we haven't had any snow here.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas!
Gorgeous! Yes, that has to be exciting for the kids. Glad it came in time for the big day. You all enjoy it. Much love.
