Let it snow...

It's the end of november, I'm getting all christmassy, and right on queue it snows!

Me and Laura were in Ikea yesterday, which is half way between Wolverhampton and Birmingham and when you are inside you are hidden away in Ikea-land, unaware of the outside. Well we went to the cafeteria and turned around and then realised that in the 2 hours we'd been choosing a sofa bed and dining table that the car park had turned into a winter wonderland. More like a blizzard actually!

We carried on to Wolverhampton to see Hannah and smily boy Jack and the journey home was horrendous! Apparently Wolverhampton hasn't heard of gritting. You know when you are sat in awful traffic and then the radio traffic alerts start coming in warning not to go down the road you are on because it is at a standstill? Me and Laura were saying, yes thankyou, we have realised through gritted teeth! The journey took 3 hours and it's only 15 miles!!! Poor Emma is only 5 months old and was not happy with us at all, not to metion Laura had to change her nappy in the back - stinky poos!

Anyway here are some lovely photos from our visit, Jack's gorgeous, (although not at all happy to be woken up after his nap!) and they were both a bit amazed at the sudden appearance of the white stuff.
