Santa Claus is coming to town!

This Christmas we headed back to the UK to catch up with friends and family and of course experience the snow! This was the coldest I have ever known the UK and there were several days where the temperature didn't even rise above zero. Snow lay thickly on the ground wherever we went. Although everyone else was getting quite tired of shovelling out their cars every day, it was still a novelty for us! My mum lent me the best sheepskin coat that I barely took off for 5 minutes.

After catching up with everyone's news over Christmas (and putting on lots of weight!) we headed back down to Matt's parents' house to help celebrate a 90th birthday: Matt's grandad's. The old boy has all his marbles and most of his own teeth and was the life and soul of the party. We can only hope that life treats us as well!
