A clearer view from Miks bedroom window of the neighbourhood
The view From Miks bedroom at 6.25am......Today it finally snowed in aberdeen...too bad it was not much and it was really a lot of wet snow! so lots of slushies around....very dirty and wet!!!!
Driving around in DH's car was an adventure today..slipping and sliding some.....and got flashed headlights by someone who thinks i should have my lights on when i didn't think i needed it!!!!....anyways, it was because my car was in the garage for a service......glad to have it back today though!!!!

Today being the third day of snow in a row, Miks was finally wel enough to spend some time out in the snow and she had a whole load of FUN!!!! She and 2 of her big friends were playing in the friends backyard after a trying time getting home from school due to heavy traffic on the road.....it took us about 45mins to clear out of a stretch of road that usually takes us under 5 mins! It was any drivers nightmare.....especially with falling snow and dropping temps.....anyways, we made it and Miks and her friends build a skinny snowmand and rolled 3 gigantic snowballs!!!!
3 really big snowballs!!!

Today is the 4th day we've had snow here in Aberdeen and it is great!!! WE had fantastic weather today! We built a snow man and went sledging for abit today. However a funny happening today was when we had friends over to pick up their car after they've returned from vacation. Mike's car was parked behind them so he had to move the care so they can get out...little did we realise however is that he would be getting stuck in the ice whilst trying to get back on to our driveway behind my car!!!!LOL!!! I was laughing whilst trying to see if i could be of help pushing....but to no avail! Alas, we left the car as is and decided that it was time to come into the house to have a hot drink!! now that was inviting!!! Anyways, after we have had our tea, we headed back out again...this time was much better....watching our friend reverse her car out of the driveway and then watching them drive off...they did alright...and i think this was all thanks to a great neighbour who shoveled all the snow to clear the way in front of our house......later on after that, we went sledging...that was pretty fun and all Miks would say was "this is AWESOME!!!!" You could tell she was having a load of FUN!!!

Today the snow has started to melt.....i havent had a chance to capture many pictures of the melting snow just yet...hopefully i will be able to get some soon before it all melts away......
A little bit of melting snow (taken at the church area near the playgroup where i work)I think we have all really enjoyed the snow......i know i have!!! Really loved driving around in my car with it....the one really nice thing about having a 4x4..is that in this sort of weather....there isnt much to fear!!!hehehehe......
