SNOW!!!! 😁😁😁

This weekend has been a blast. On Saturday we had guests over, who were Freja's grandparents and aunts. We had afternoon tea and dinner with them before watching the handball game from the international handball championships that was on TV before heading to bed.

Sunday was a cooking day, I made Gluten free buns with Freja's dad before a trip to the shops, then we started to make what Danes call confectionery, which is marzipan. Pia was making Christmas cookies while we were doing this. After the Marzipan is made and coloured, we made shapes with it and other treat. We could make anything in our imagination.
We were watching the handball game when Siv pointed out it was snowing. Now coming from a place that never snows, I had only seen snow once on a trip to Canberra, so I had to go and play with the snow that was already fallen. After defrosting from the cold, I headed inside for a hot shower before bed.

Monday was another day at school with Siv, it was a bit harder walking to school since the ground was slippery in some places. Made it to school safely where Siv's class was just about to start the day. After school Freja and I headed to Rie's house where Gen was staying. We had some tea and chocolates before heading to Scouts for a small event. By this point there had been a little more snow that had fallen, it was funny to see Gens reaction to snow, since she had never encountered it before. We did some little activities outside before heading to shelter for some hot chocolate which warmed us up. It was strange standing outside with snow falling down. Before heading home Freja, Rie, Gen, Mark and I had a snowball fight since there was plenty of snow around. After that Rie's mum drove us home where we ate before creating some more marzipan creations before bed.
