Snow-WHAT?

Well now i'm counting down to NZ.

Sure, it was beautiful this morning when we woke up and everything was covered in a beautiful blanket of snow (15-20cmm to be more precise) but where did it come from?! I had no idea we were getting it. So as beautiful as it is, the first time you see it, it is not so fun to have to go running around gathering up hats, mitts, scarfs, snowpants, boots etc. for all three of us to get out the door for 8:45am and get in traffic to drive Ella to school.
As a parent, this chore that comes with winter, ruins a lot of the joy that was once there as a child.
Two months exactly until we are out of this stuff and back on the beach :-)
The girls of course were delighted to see the wintery wonderland that had developed overnight. They couldn't get outside fast enough. So cute. Zaiah especially. B/c she's just turning two its like she's seeing it for the first time.
Her b-day is on saterday and we are having a halloween/b-day celebration play group here at the house tomorrow. I will post pic's :)
