What a difference a week makes! Last week kids were splashing and running through the water park at the Botanic Gardens and this we went to the snow! Last cold blast for the year and the kids just loved it. He was getting very excited in the car seeing the first splatterings of snow "WoW...snow...white!"Ben loved the snowman with the carrot for a nose and 2 gumnuts for eyes. Poor little hands were red raw as we didn't have any gloves for him (such bad parents we are!) So we had to have short plays with "recovery" in the cafe. Heidi looked just gorgeous in her hand-me-down Kenzo suit...wish I had one of those!
On the way home we attempted to do a little 4wd ing but it was short lived as Ben got absolutely petrified...shaking and crying in his seat saying "mummy ....hug?" with tears streaming down his face....we felt terrible...couldn't give him a hug until we backed back down the track. For the last week he has been saying ...."oh no....bumpy bumpy"...."nice smooth road!" and his favourite "muddy wheels....Ben wash ...hose....tap" I think he has forgotten all about the snow and just remembers the "bumpy track"!
