A White Easter


















Well I've always wanted a white Christmas but I never thought it would be a white Easter that I got. We woke up this morning like a large part of the country to a 10 cm blanket of snow. Once again Elizabeth was up and out of bed ready to play in the white stuff. Before 7 am we had a snow man built and sledged down the road ,being pulled by Dad, bumping into other children also being pulled around by their Dads. It was a beautiful sight on an Easter morning. But by 8am I was ready for breakfast and a hot cup of tea!!!
It was lovely to see Auntie Carol up here this week. A lovely surprise for Denise as she didn't know she was flying up ( a closely guarded secret). They both had a lovely time and got to do what they do do best laugh, chat and shop at Designer Outlet. A lovely time had by both and they got the chance to relax, chat and catch up. We just got her back to the airport with the snow blanketing the airport on Saturday. Its certainly a cold wind up at that airport. But the chance to see both the surounding countryside and Leeds stretching out below.
