The snow has pretty much brought the UK to a standstill over the last week or so. Schools have been closed, buses and trains have stopped running and the whole country is snow obsessed. The majority of it hit Thursday and Friday this week. Tilly doesn't seem to be interested in it either way. She is just a little bit too young to enjoy it.
I thought I'd take her out in the crisp, undamaged back garden. I spent about 10 minutes putting layers on her, jumpers, coats, hat, gloves, shoes etc and I took her outside and we spent about 2 minutes in it before coming back in again. The snow was deep and her feet sunk down until the snow was up to her shins. Her shoes aren't really suitable for that kind of weather and she looked uneasy. I gave her a little bit of snow in her hand, I took her glove off so she could feel it. She hated it and so we came back in to the comfort of observing it from the warm inside.
After two days of being stuck in the house as soon as Richard came home we went to the park for a walk. It was a lovely evening, we went down to Allesley Park where there were loads of children sledging. We watched them for a while and then walked to the playground where Tilly played on the swings. As we walked to the playground the sun was setting and it was so beautiful as the snow reflected the fading light.
