First snowfall of 2012



This week saw us get a little bit of snow and a lot of ice which the kids grabbed the opportunity to go sledding behind the house. It was great fun followed by hot chocolate to thaw our fingers and toes.

Kris has been earning our keep this week by doing some odd jobs round the house including making a cat tree with some leftover wood and carpet. As you can see from the photos the cats have taken an instant liking to it.

With the snow now all gone we took the kids out this afternoon to the park to fly a kite and we are now set to celebrate Ross and Ryan's birthdays in the next few days!

FAO Kris - just replaced five smoke detectors in 30 minutes. How does that rate with your return rate?

Kris said...

FAO Scott - That's pretty good. I've replaced 0 smoke detectors in 9 months. So you win

FAO Kris - I can help you get back on track as there is a Bathroom light bulb waiting to be changed for the last eight months! Only 11 days left to wait!

FAO Carolyn - It reminds me of the old saying:-Change a ladies light bulb and she will have light for a year. Show her how to change a light bulb and she will have light for a lifetime.

FAO Kris - Yes please show me how. The light is out in the front garden too - only 7 days left to wait!
Happy Birthday Ryan for today. Hope the parcel has arrived now??
