It has been a good Christmas holiday, but I've felt like something was missing.
Oh my heart went pitterpat and the entire house squeeled with excitement.
Yes, I know. This is so little when compared to the snow that hit other parts of the country this winter, but really it was just what we wanted.
Isn't it lovely?
Oh we had such fun.
We had friends over for dinner last night, and between dinner and dessert we went for a walk in the snow filled nighttime. It was lovely packable snow. The kind that crunches underfoot, and rolls up like carpeting into huge snow balls (perfect for snowmen). It is melting quickly, and should all be gone by the end of the day.
This snow caught the weathermen by complete surprise. They denied the possibility of snow, even after it was sticking to the ground. The downside to this was that thousands of people were caught on the freeways in endless deadlock. I was never so happy to be home where we could enjoy the spectacle.
