lurking

Its still snowing!
We were supposed to go out for lunch today, we were meeting my mum and stepdad for my pre-birthday lunch! half way between cardiff and here..but the weather was against us. we ended up going locally just us and then gareth and the kids had a snowball fight outside the house. I took about 3 million portraits of the boys sneakily with my long lens. The boys are hoping school will be shut tomorrow.

This is my youngest hiding and gathering snowballs!
