The Friday Flashback is back!

We stopped doing the Friday Flashback a year ago because we had flashed back up to December 2009 and would soon be catching up with current posts. After a year of rest it is back again starting with January 2010. We think this may be the only snow we see because this winter has been very mild up to now, but very wet and very windy. So here it it!

WE'VE GOT SNOW!

Flynn: It snowed yesterday so mum asked us if we wanted to go for a walk in it. I couldn't see much grass so I tried to thaw it out by peeing on it.

Eric didn't realise what I was doing and went to walk behind me. He nearly got a wet head. Haha!

Eric: I don't know what happened to the long grass, it looks all short now.

Flynn: If it's short Eric, where are your feet disappearing to?

Flynn: I think I will sit here and watch Eric in the grass.....

....... and watch the horses eat their hay.

These horses would rather eat the frozen grass than their hay. They must be nuts.


This is our yard and some of the stables where the horses sleep at night.

Eric: That's enough of that. I'm going in to warm my toesies up.

Snow is Not Fun

When it snowed at the weekend, mum asked us if we would like to go out and play in it. IS SHE MAD??? We used to play in it when we were young and foolish, but we are older boys now with more sense. Anyway, she chucked us out the door! That shouldn't be allowed surely.

Flynn: I ran right under the hedge where there was no snow.

Eric: And I went under the swing hammock.

Flynn: Mum kept trying to get photos of me under the hedge, so I had to move away from her. I tried to keep my feet out of the snow.

When I got to the end of the hedge, I had to walk on the nasty white stuff.

Yuk! I do not like this cold stuff one bit.

I don't care what she says, I'm heading back indoors.

Eric: Good idea, I'm coming too.

Okay mum, so we've been out and walked in it, now take it away again.

Hang on a minute Flynn, there's an interesting smell here.

For goodness sake Eric, never mind the smells, lets get back in by the fire.

We got Snow!

We did have a video as well but Blogger has been processing it for well over half an hour. Mum will probably do it another day on You Tube.

Easy Like Sunday and Snow.

We went to go outdoors this morning and this is what we saw!

Okay, we know it's not much compared with what a lot of you get, but we rarely get any. We ended up with half an inch which is enough to give you cold toesies.

Flynn: I wasn't hanging about, I went under the hedge for shelter.

Eric: I checked our outdoor water bowl with the tasty rain water in it but somebody had turned it into solid water so I went under the table to shelter.

I sat here for a while just watching the white stuff fall out of the sky.

Then I checked behind our holiday run to see if any mousies were sheltering there.

They weren't. I'm not impressed with this stuff.

Do not disturb.
While Eric was checking outdoors I caught up with our reader. Now I think I deserve a nap.
