Vahan lisaa lumileikkeja / Some more snow fun

Lumessa on kiva temmeltaa. Se on jo aika markaa ja muksut tulevatkin yleensa sisaan lapimarkina. Pikkuneidin kurahousut on kateissa tottakai silloin kun niita tarvittaisiin. 

It's so much fun to play in the snow. It's quite wet already and the children do come in pretty much soaking wet every time. The "mud pants" (water proof outside pants Finnish children wear when playing in wet snow, mud,  wet sand etc.) that I've got for Little Miss are missing. Of course when we they are needed the most.  

Tytot rakensivat Daddyn kanssa takapihalle katottaman iglun. Siihen piti tehda vaikka minkalaisia ikkunoita ja koloja mutta se kolmen paivan lammin jakso pilasi sitten kaikki suunnitelmat kun iglun ylaosa suli pois. 

The girls built a  igloo without a roof. They had planned to do all kinds of windows and holes but the three day warm period melted the top half of the igloo and ruined all the plans.

Ja joskus sita leikkiessa tulee erimielisyyksia. Silloin ollaan mutrusuita sen pienen hetken ja kohta taas leikitaan sopuisasti.

Sometimes when you play there's disagreements. Some time to sulk and soon they are playing nicely together again. 

Nautitaan siis lumesta kun sita viela on. Kohta saadaan sitten odotella takapihan kuivumista. 

We're enjoying the snow as we still have it. Soon we'll have to wait for the back yard to dry.
