More snowy adventures

Whilst I am indoors nursing a sickness bug, lovingly passed onto me by my son, the kids have been out enjoying some more of the snow. Who can blame them?

Kent one, Cumbria nil

It has been a constant source of annoyance to Jon that every year since moving to the hostile northern tundra, we have had more snow here in Kent than they have had in Cumbria. Once again dear friends, Kent has come out on top with six to eight inches of snow this morning. James went to bed this evening determined to stay awake until midnight, which (as I'm sure you know) is when all the snowmen in the land come to life...
Green green, or not so green grass.

This sight is an absolute joy to me. A flat garden covered with grass - what riches! I'm desperately hoping that the baby shoots can withstand the frost and survive the winter. All being well, we will have a lawn to play on come the spring.
Happy Birthday James!

James turned four last weekend. We had grandparents to birthday tea, and an unexpected visit from Uncle Gilbert who was here on a flying visit to pay his last respects to a much loved friend. James was thoroughly spoiled, and no doubt will be again in a fortnight's time.

Happy Birthday Mr Price!

We enjoyed a rare night out last night, thanks to Matt turning thirty this weekend. Happy birthday Matt and thanks for a great party! More pictures on facebook.
Me and my girl

I have embarked on a knitting project this week. Jennifer, true to her genetic stereotype, decided to join me.
