It has been snowing for the past 3 days and this morning we saw the sun, although it was minus 17, it was a beautiful sight with all of the snow on the trees in our backyard. We probably got at least 20 cm of the white stuff over the last few days. Rory has loved getting out and shovelling and playing in the snow. Linds and Rory are working hard at building our own snow mountain to go sledding on.
Rory thought it was pretty cool to be able to reach the tree branches with his shovel - not realizing however that the snow he hit off the tree would come down onto his face! A little shocked, but laughed and did it again and again!
Rory took great care to clear off some of the railing to make sure our bird friends were well fed during this cold weather.
It was a little chilly for Cameron to head out in the snow so he was quite content to hang out on the play mat with his friend Mr Octopus and spend his afternoons cozied up snoozing away.
After a couple of hours in the snow we hunkered down inside to warm up and do some serious building work. Rory was quite proud of his 'rocket ship' invention he built with mum.
