Unlike some parts of the world we don't get snow that often. A lucky thing, as we're not well equipped to deal with it and everything tends to grind to a halt. However, you can't deny the feeling of excitement that you get when you open the curtains in the morning to find a white, winter wonderland.
Amy was certainly in high spirits this morning and it took twice as long as usual to walk to school.
Poor old trees had just got their spring attire of beautiful pink blossoms, now frozen in sad little clumps. Still, we're making the most of the snow as it will probably be reduced to brown slush by lunchtime! Keep warm everyone!
