Winter Wonderland 2

We had a second fall of snow last week and it was the worst I've seen for ages.  We didn't have it too bad but some places 10 minutes away had snowdrifts and roads were blocked.

It was lovely walking over to the park, and here's a few pics of Winter Wonderland 2 - just for you Nenna



It doesn't look it on the photos but the snow was quite heavy although it was more like sleet and there in the park was one man and his dog.  The dog was running around like crazy, man was sitting down at a picnic table. I was taking photos then made a quick retreat home as I was getting slightly wet.

Making

We've had some lovely sunshine today but when we looked out of the window at work ... snow, only a flutter but the weather just can't make it's mind up.  Still it was lovely seeing the sun for a change and just let me see Spring is on the way.

Just a few pics to share of my adorable grandchildren making - I forget what it's called but a wonderful way to keep children occupied for a long time.  It took them ages to pick up the small beads but they loved it, especially when we ironed it and they saw the end result.  Great for wet play days.
