Hot Chocolate

We woke to the sort of stillness that can only mean snow and looking out discovered that all was covered by a thick blanket of it. Once Sam was up and revived with tea and toast, he and the girls ventured forth to build an igloo. They worked until the light had faded and their fingers and toes blue with the cold. I took them out a tray with mugs of hot chocolate and some sticky ginger cake and was rewarded with huge grins and whoops of joy!
