we were lucky enough to get a good amount of snow here on Saturday night.The boys were more than a little excited by this .By 9.15 am on Sunday we were here.......
Before most sensible people had thought about setting out in the cold......
After a couple of hours it's back home to defrost.......hot chocolates for the boys ...
It's midday and the sun is melting the snow on the branches quickly now.....
I decide to have a little walk before it's all gone.........
I'm glad these guys are behind two fences.But don't they look gorgeous in the snow...............
It's so quiet , the only sounds are my footsteps in the snow..........
Later in the day ,after a hot meal ,we even went out again. Back to the same slope, where the run is much faster now .The sun is setting but the children (and parents) are having too much fun to notice the cold........
Actually I notice the cold, my fingers and toes are numb and I want to leave. But it was a fabulous day .....

ReplyDeleteWhat a perfect place for sledging! I can just imagine those rosy, happy faces! :)
ReplyDeleteLooks fab - wish we had a decent hill for sledging nearby.
ReplyDeleteGot to make the most of these snowy days - my 2 were outside after school tonight pelting each other with snowballs and playing snow rugby again.

ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed your post! I loved the cattle in the snow. And the photography of the scenery is stunning. Stay warm and fun.
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful soft light you have in those pictures. I love the cattle - I bet they're not cold! I can see your boys had an amazing time on that hill, just perfect for sledging. No snow for us in Cornwall, my fault as I bought a sledge back in October!

ReplyDeleteLove the Highland cattle either side of the gate like sentinels and the branches with their covering of snow.
The last pic with it's muted tones, silhouetted trees and moon with the diehard sledgers is stunning.
I imagine you enjoyed a number of warming drinks after a day in the snow.

What a happy day! Here in Italy we're actually covered with snow too!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful winter photos. I like the "jumper" on the flacon :)
ReplyDeleteLife kinda' stops for a snow day doesn't it, I always think they're days out of time ... everything is different - sounds, smells, even tastes somehow - and special. Sadly for me, the mega snow lover, not a flake fell here in North Wales.
