White Christmas


Who knew that our Christmas would be white after all! We don't get much snow in this parts of the country, but this year we had a Christmas wish come true: it started to snow in the mid-afternoon and snowed until all ground was covered with a white blanket. Beautiful!




The following picture was taken 24 hours earlier, on Christmas Eve:

There is something romantic, magical, idyllic about the white Christmas...

It is the best time to share a cake with family and friends. 
Thank you all for coming into my life and filing my heart with joy. 

See you,
Marina

  5. It is beautiful, isn't it? You certainly had more snow than we did. What little we had arrived Christmas morning.
    Hope your Christmas was wonderful, Marina.

  7. Christmas has always felt so much more special when it has been a snowy one, lucky you. Last year we were in the snow in Switzerland but this year we are in Wales and having to contend with flooding all over the UK. Thankyou for calling by my own Christmas post, I hope you enjoyed the music. Happy New Year.

  9. Great that you had a white Christmas! We got just a dusting of snow, which was OK by me.

  12. It's been so long since I had a white Christmas or even a cold Christmas. Your photos make me so homesick. It's the hottest month of the year in Australia and though I've been here a long time, it's never felt like Christmas. :)

    I hope 2013 brings you nothing but joy, my friend!
