So yesterday was the 26th of December and there has been a hint of a possible white Christmas but it didn't happen :-( but on the night of Christmas it did start to snow slightly and when we woke up the next morning there was a Winter Wonderland outside :-)
This is the view of our deck from our back door.
And this one from our front door.
Our first White Christmas, or sort of right ?
Ambers first steps out onto the snow, she wanted nothing to do with it, I remember Jade being the same at this age. She didn't mind being out there as long as she wasn't in it or didn't have to touch it.
This was about as much of a smile you were going to get out there, shame the poor thing just wasn't sure about all this and wouldn't move and looked like she just wanted to burst into tears all the time. I was getting ready inside while the three of them were outside already but everytime she caught a glimpse of me, she put her hands out to me to save her :-(
Look at that sad face on my almost always happy girl :-(
Our backyard taken from outside on our deck.
That's an oh my gosh they know I am scared and now I am here all by myself, how could they ? She really didn't like this white stuff.
Isn't that just beautiful :-)
This doesn't look anything as pretty as I thought it would, you know we should have gone outside last night and taken a picture with the Christmas lights on but I didn't think of it :-( and now the snow is just melting away already. Crazy that we didn't think of it but at least it gives you and idea of how it looked and this was still quite early in the morning too so it was still kinda dark outside too.
This was taken right by that island of trees outside out house, you can see it in earlier pictures to give you and idea of where we were.
Dave and the girls.
What a nice picture of Jade and her friend Erin.
This is my neighbor Colleen, her hubby Joe and their kids Vincent and Gabriel. Should have asked them to take a family pic of us too ... clearly the snow had frozen my brain yesterday !!!
This was down the pathway or walkway behind our houses, mom that is where you would go down to hit the trails in the mornings when you went for a walk here.
Thats Jade sliding down the hill, glad Dave was there to see that and not me !!!
Mom another one of the pathway, think although beautiful, it would be a spooky walk right now.
Enough for Amber, Dave and I, Jade stayed out for a good while longer, although her snow jacket and boots and gloves kept her warm, her jeans and leggings were sopping wet, I don't know how she handled it. They were so cold when I took them off her, I could hardly handle them but she said she was having fun and was fine, all I can say is brrrrrrrrrrrrr !!!
This was an early snow for us so who knows what the rest of Winter will bring, right now the sun is shining, the skies are blue and all the snow is melting into one muddy mess, yuck but that's how it goes here when it snows.
I am soooooooooooooooooooooo excited, I am completely done with this update !!! Thought it would never end. Hope you enjoy catching up with all we did in December and Happy New Year, travel safe, go slow and have a wonderful rest of this crazy festive season. Love to all !!!
OK THIS IS MY LAST UPDATE FOR A VERY LONG WHILE I THINK ... AFTER 8 HOURS OF UPDATING YESTERDAY I AM EXHAUSTED, HOW DID I GET SO BEHIND OR DID I JUST TAKE WAY TOO MANY PICS IN DECEMBER ... THAT MIGHT BE IT. ANYWAY SCROLL DOWN TILL THE LAST UPDATE YOU SAW COZ THERE ARE A BUNCH OF UPDATES THAT I DID YESTERDAY AND IT WILL ONLY ALL MAKE SENSE IF YOU SCROLL FROM THE BOTTOM UP OK :-) ENJOY !!!
