Where have I been?

It has been a while hasn't it? Well just after christmas we went on our holiday to America. I celebrated my birthday over there and we came back a week ago, but I caught the flu out there and am just recovering!

I have caught up on all your blogs and I will be back soon with tales from my holiday but for now I just wanted to pop in, say hi and show you a couple of my favourite pictures.

Its nearly christmas!!

Anyone else noticed the snow and ice!!! These are pictures of the ice we had a few weeks ago - it was my little winter wonderland. It has now turned into a snowy land, but parts of it are turning grey and melting now! It is very fitting for christmas and I hope it stays for just a little bit longer (but not on the roads!!!)

I hope you are all ready for christmas and that the snow and ice hasn't been too much of a problem for you all!!

Winter wonderland

As you know I went to York at the end of last week and it was a winter wonderland, there was snow and icicles everywhere! I loved it and in the fun of it all I fell over twice, I had a soft landing on the mountains of snow though so it was ok!


There was of course the negative sides to the weather but I don't want to talk about those as it spoils the christmassy-ness of it all!!
Then the morning after I returned to Gloucester Mr Frost had left his lovely patterns all over my car and a glittery topping to all the tarmac!
