Snow day

It doesn't take a lot of snow for us here on the West Coast to feel the hardship of winter. We're used to rain and relatively warm weather, so snow always makes us feel like the rest of Canada...
February usually brings the first blossoms in the front yards in our neighbourhood, the first blossoms on trees, crocuses... This year the snow bells came right on cue for the beginning of February, but then the cold winds came in and today is not a first glimpse at spring, but a grey, cold and snowy winter day.
So we decided to turn up the heat and make it into a cozy home day with the possibility of playing in the snow after nap (this may not work out, the snow is constant, but not a lot, it's more like a sustained dusting - if you're reading this anywhere else in the Northern hemisphere you're laughing, but really, we don't do snow here!)

So what to do on a snow day?

Maybe work a bit more on this?

The kids played with the snow fairy - who was very cold since she only had her ear muffs on an no warm clothing, but then the rainbow fairy brought her a warm blanket, so all is well now:

And you gotta admit that nothing warms you up more than chocolate chip cookies right out of the oven:

Now everyone is under a warm blanket having a nap. We'll see what the afternoon brings...
