Winter Wonderland 2012

Hi!

When snow started falling, we were actually at a friends's house for another Yassin recitation feast. After solat maghrib, reciting Yassin, continuing with Isya' prayer and scrumptious dinner, all of us went out to play and pose in the snowy night! hehe. The kids were also enjoyed their friend's company therefore both of them were at their best behavior. :) Unluckily, i forgot to bring our cammy so don't have any photos there! :(

Anyway we had to leave as early as we could as the snow was getting down heavier to avoid from getting strandeds. :P But as soon as we arrived at home, hubby brought down the cammy and quickly set up the tripod in front of our house. hehe. Let alone the freezing cold or the neighbors! Jakun ok! Lol.

Alhamdulillah, we managed to take several photos and again the kids were still in the best mood while lil Zafri were deep in slumber. :P He couldnt careless what happened around him that night. :D Btw, It's his first experience to encounter with snow but as i said he was sleeping through the photoshoot session in either hubby or my arms. Huhu mcm nk patah pinggang lepas posing tuh. Haha.

The next morning, we were so amazed and delighted to see our backyard covered by the thick blanket of snow. Subhanallah, What a view! terus lg cantik nmpk backyard ktrg. :P Anyway, we had our breakfast first before hubby quickly made a snowgirl for the girls. Zahin requested a snowgirl instead of a snowman!! And she even demanded that the snowgirl must be as tall as her baby brother!! kemain demand taw..! hehehe..Luckily, hubby is so understanding so he was more than willing to build one. AND he really did a great job because he had successfully made one! A cute snowgirl completed with eyes, nose, hands, pinky muffles and hairband!! Hip2 hoorey! Cayalah Babah. ;) So again, without wasting time we had a photoshoot again but this time with the cute snowgirl! ;)

Later after lunch and Asr prayer, we went to Hainault Forest Country Park which was 2miles away from our house for snow sledging. On the way there, the view of the countryside really took our breath away! Subhanallah, it's like the ocean of snow. It's all white everywhere. Masya Allah. When we reached the country park, again we were dumbfounded to see the ocean of people there!! Macam pesta sudahhh...hahahaha. All of us were in the same boats! Jakun jgk kot ...Lol!

BTW, It was pretty dangerous as all the visitors had to park at the main roadside since we could not go into the snowy park with our car and the road was slippery as it was covered with snow. Licin, ada van nak anta brg dlm cafe kt park tu siap tyre tenggelam dlm snow lg..i'd almost slipped myself as well. huhu And hubby quicky asked me to pass lil Zafri to him to be carfried and i just hold my girls's hands walking them to the park. Anyhow, Zahin couldnt stand the cold any longer so we had to find the nearest spot for us to accomplish our mission! And i'm happy to say that we got to sledge on the snow by using handmade sledge though we didnt manage to walk further up to the hill.

Nway, enjoy all the pics. ;)

That's it. The snow melted the next day. The snowgirl tumbled on the ground on yesterday. Today, there are still got some snow left on the ground. ;) Alhamdulillah we were still given a chance to play with snow this year. We had a blast and we felt blessed. Hopefully it will not be the last. The BBC weather forecast predicts that the snow will fall again as soon as this coming weekend! Hopefully it will not go as bad as in the Eastern Europe. Ukraine's temp dropped as low as minus 36! Many people had died. Kt sini -5deg pon dh tak thn whoaa..huhu..Smg Allah melindungi kami daripada segala bencana yg tdk diingini. Amin!!

Till then, Wassalam.
