#SnapHappyBritMum Photo Challenge Day 6

Today's picture topic is snow or frost. We have neither in Lincoln so I am sharing a picture from last week when it snowed on Boxing Day. Poor Etta was so poorly so she didn't go out but Rob and Raphael did and they built a snowman together. Raphael is obsessed with the film The Snowman And The Snowdog. He was checking every 5 minutes that the snowman was still there as he was so scared that he would melt. Luckily we had him for a good few days before it rained and washed him away. Raphael was so concerned but after we explained that he can build more when it snows again he seemed to understand.

Here is a picture from that day when Raph first stepped into our garden. There is always something magical when you take those first few steps onto freshly fallen snow so I can only imagine the thoughts rushing through Raph's head as it crunched beneath its feet.
