   These are from last night and then this morning.  last night
 
 The roads last night 
 The picnic table - next door 
 Our driveway 
 Out by our letterbox 
 Out the front of our house. 
 Andrew and Josh on the board - down the road on State Highway 1!!! 
 And again 
 The cars parked at the pub!!! 
 Looking at our place from across the road 
 My car - before Nigel took all the snow off 
 Both our cars and the other side of our house 
 And getting warm again after being in the snow!!!! |

     I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived!

   I miss the snow - it's been 15 years now since I've seen it for real    ETA: Great pics Backs. Love the one of the picnic table - the snow looks so yummy & fresh - like a merinque piled up

 You know I thought that too, but our fire burns it quite slowly (but with some good heat in it) so we aren't going through that much. |
