Christmas













This year Alex & Yves got up early & opened presents, while Max & I stayed in bed.... so there wasn't any pics of opening the gifts...
It was a "White Christmas", we stayed in all day, after there were even little hills of snow on the balcony. Yesterday it snowed all day and it was windy too, creating the little hills. We had a simple lunch & for dinner Yves cooked a chicken & vegies.... we had a ice cream bûche for dessert.

Big Snow...







On Monday is snowed all day and there was about 15-20cm of snow everywhere... my docs (dr martens) have worn out a bit so I had to buy some snow shoes. Of course, everyone from Metz was in the sports shop also buying snow shoes. So I had to buy the "big purple monster" shoes, lucky I'm a purple person. Max & Alex also got snow shoes, gumboots just won't do slippery snow!

The snow is still around, on Tuesday it took me 20 minutes to dig the car out. Driving in the snow is not something I'm fond of.

It don't think the snow will melt very much tomorrow, the low is -10°c & the top will be -2°c. Another fun day is on it's way.
