Snow, snow and more snow

Another day at home today thanks to the extreme cold weather we and the rest of the country have been experiencing over the last few days.  Yesterday we experienced the third afternoon in a row of snow here in Upper Hutt - a place where we usually only see snow dusting the higher surrounding hilltops. Here are a few snapshots of the snowfall yesterday afternoon at my home, not far from school.
The photographs really don't do it justice - so silent - it was like magic!   

A few more days like this and I can see how the novelty of snow would wear thin, it is just so cold!  Thank goodness for a good book (or two), a good fire and hot food to keep you warm.
