Snow Day…
Posted under Witterings
We have snow..blah…it’s really deep…blah….school is shut…blah….it’s really really annoying because I’m really really busy…blah…can’t get off the farm…blah…blah blah BLAH.
So we stayed home and the boys laughed at my pathetic attempts to light the fire. We homeschooled (geography, the Romans, literacy and maths…not bad for 3 and 5 year olds). We made stuff. We crocheted (well, me and Bertie did and Diggy just just up wool). We drew, we coloured in, we made a lot of hot chocolate and when we were all done with that we went for a Snow Day Walk on the farm and tobogganed until we were blue with cold.
And some of our number snapped some crappy photos with their iPhone.
Very cold pigs…
Very cold child (note sunhat…there is a winter hat underneath…he was just ‘trying something’)
Very cold horse water buckets…
Very cold office, where no work was done today…oh, and tobogganing child…
Another very cold child…note lack of gloves…
And then we came in and watched crap telly and all was one in the world.
Please let it not snow not snow not snow anymore. Some of us may have a significant birthday at the weekend and plans to go away without the children for the first..time…ever. The snow can go now. Thanks a lot.
Oh your boys are beautiful. Hope you get away for your special birthday xx
Oi….send me the white stuff…sounds like bad eighties code for coke!!! love the rosie cheeks…and have you never worn two hats woman?? It’s so much fun!! ;0)
Fingers, toes, eyes all crossed that you can get away this weekend (and happy birthday in advance !) xxx
Ooh I remember the last picture of that field that was all Autumny. Have a good birthday
Those pig noses are so cute … and your beautiful children of course!
For your sake I hope the snow really does go away, but my gosh it looks beautiful. And those pink cheeks! Delicious!
And so the snow backlash begins!
It sounds rather wonderful, mutterings from a disgruntled birthday girl aside.
Actually, I think that the sunhat over the winter hat is a good look.
btw, why am I represented by such a very weird monster?
Gorgeous snow photo on top huh? Your snow day sounds very busy and adventurous! (Read Good Mommy here.) You so deserve a bday away. I’ll send us a special prayer now!
Blessings.
Fabulous photos. We’re on our fourth snow day. Hate the stuff. Hope you’re having a great birthday!
