Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

I can’t really get away without mentioning the snow, given that it’s apparently the coldest winter for thirty years. On January 6th we woke up to a good 8-10” of snow. Aidan was thrilled, especially since his favourite book/film over Christmas was Raymond Briggs’ The Snowman. Both boys went outside to see the snow.

Sammy though was less impressed with the cold, wet, slippery snow and wanted to go back inside. So Aidan and I waited for his nap and then went out to build the BEST snowman!

When Sam awoke we went round to mum and dad’s to play some more. Sammy tried again to see where the fun was in this snow malarkey but again decided it wasn’t for him and went back inside with mum and my sister whilst Aidan and my dad decided to slide down mum and dad’s sloped garden on a few baking trays!

My sister and brother in law attempted to build a snowman, but I’m telling you it was a pathetic excuse for a snow man and they quickly gave up!
