What a fantastic 48 hours it has been here in Christchurch. We woke
up in the middle of the night (1:16am to be precise) to find the lawn
and cars covered in snow. I didn't think it would last till the next
morning, but it did and the snow just kept on falling. It truly felt
like a Winter Wonderland. The children played in the snow for most of
the day, only returning for a warm change of clothes and a yummy bowl of
pumpkin soup and date cake to keep their tummies happy! We had several
Keren inspired snow fights, ate snow ice-cream made of condensed milk
and hot chocolate and numerous attempts at building a snowman....Keren
kept on kicking the poor snowman into little pieces. Dad couldn't get to
work so we made the most of our day off. There is still plenty of snow around. The roads are very slippery and we try not to go anywhere unless it is necessary.
The girls finally managed to make a snowman today. He's a cutie!
