Let It Snow




Well we had our first dump of snow for the year on the mountain behind us on Monday. We took the kids up for a quick play...




Snow Bunny Samantha










If you look hard you can just see Spen at the top of the tower.





We didn't stay for very long but the kids had a great time, but it was nice to get home to the wood fire and warmth!



David's dad and his partner have been staying with us for a couple of weeks, they are from Bunderberg in Queensland, so the cold weather was tough on them! It was great having them here, the kids love Grandad and Nanny Ree, and it was nice that we could all spend some time together.


And as Angela is still not talking to me and avoiding us, it was nice to have grandparents around for the kids. I have been missing my family so very much the last few weeks!!! I don't know what to do about Angela, and it is stressing me out! No one else seems to be worried it, but I am trying to plan a wedding and that is hard to do when some one as important as the groom's mum is being difficult! David says he doesn't care if she comes to wedding but it worries me and I don't want a wedding if she is going to be spiteful. What really gets me is everyone else in the family thinks the same way about how Angela treats the 3 grand daughters differently (favours Jessica over Sam and Skye), but I was the one who stood up and said something and now no one wants to back me up and say its nothing to do with them, yet they have nagged to me to say something, and moan to me when Angela does it! it really pisses me off!!! Kim and Daniel won't say anything because they have a babysitter when ever they want one and its their daughter who is the "favourite"! Andrew and Ashley ( Skye's parents) won't say anything because they have only just moved down from Queensland and need to borrow money off Angela. It all just makes me so bloody frustrated I want to tell them all to fuck off, but I won't because they are David's family after all. I guess I will just suffer in silence and see what happens.


I will finish on a happy note. I found this hat the other day and had to buy it, it was to cute not to get....


I love it and Samantha looks so damn cute in it!!

Oh Pauline, I sympathise with the mother in law situation - isn't it great when you stand up for something (urged on by others) and then they don't back you up? Grrrrr
I'm sure it will work itself out - and, if it doesn't - well, at least you stood up for yourself (in a dignified manner, I might add)and have nothing to feel bad about. At the end of the day, it's her problem not yours and you shouldn't let it get you down, although I do sympathise about the wedding situation. Still, if she isn't going to come then there is no point letting it spoil your day. Families eh?

How cute is Sam in her pink outfit? Edible! I bet her and Spen loved the snow.

Take care Missus. xxxx
