First snow and chickenpox

Today I'm home with the kids. They have chickenpox and it's been a long and boring week for them. They really miss their friends at preschool and mum and dad ain't that fun to play with anymore :-)

Wilmer just shouted out that he could see the first snowflakes fall down from heaven. I looked outside the window, and yes, the very first snow...cool. Hopefully this winter will turn out better than last winter when we experienced minus and plus degrees every other day, leaving us with just ice covering the ground. Not very pleasant. I want a lot of snow or nothing at all.
