ITS BEGINNING TO LOOK A LOT LIKE CHRISTMAS........

Come on now join in....Everywhere I go........


Well it certainly did late last night when I went to peek out of the bedroom window.......


 I had no idea it had even started, the sky had been so clear....


and come the morning, there had been a bit more...



My retreat looked a bit bleak and tea on the lawn was definitely off.....


they say the snow muffles sound and we found out why....



10.00am on  Saturday morning and the place looks deserted..



but Oh so pretty.....


 and at last evidence of life....running back into the warm as fast as they can go!!!

I do love the snow when it's crisp and fresh, love to hear it crunching beneath my boots, love the freshness in the air....but today the wind chill meant it was bloomin' freezing and so we followed suit and hurried home to warm drinks....shame the mince pies aren't done yet a nice hot one of those would have warmed our hands a treat.

Hope you are having a lovely weekend whatever your weather and I'll be back in the week to tell you about my trips to York and Harrogate.

  2. How beautiful... it is just getting hotter and hotter here in QLD... I think it supposed to be 27*C today... and it isn't yet summer! I have only been in the snow once... when I was three - so I am really loving your photos. Hope you have a lovely weekend and enjoy your sales spoils...

  3. Lovely photos Jenny! That last thing I said before I went to bed last night was "I feel a bit cheated that we haven't had any snow!" It was lovely to wake up to the white blanket. You're right about it being cold, I have just collected my daughter from work and it is -7.

  11. dear Jenny,
    please feel free to keep your snow "up there" for AS LONG AS YOU WANT!!
    If you're really fed-up with it middle of next week (at the earliest), we'll be happy to give you a day off, but for today and tomorrow please hang on to it for all you're worth- until Vintage at the Village Hall is over and everyone is safely home!!
    With love
