Improving Spirits

A large and on-going snowfall has done much to raise spirits this morning:

OLAHF has been out for over an hour being silly - sliding and trying to complete 4-paw drifts round imagined sharp corners before it falls over. Without much noticeable success. Is now a large snowball on grey legs. And Her tulips are rather sat upon.

TB introduced the Throwing Shoe into proceedings - And got hit on the head by a mini avalanche from the cherry tree when the Shoe hit the branches. Decided burying it was the better option. And then almost immediately sent snow in all directions in efforts to re-discover it. (Myself cannot believe TB forgot within 30 seconds where it had been buried. Think it is another Newly-Invented Game.)

Even Myself joined in - Patted a few falling snowflakes but it was a little chilly so went inside the conservatory when My paws became uncomfortable. TB (of course) then took this genteel pastime too far by leaping up to catch the flakes in its mouth and hit the apple tree. Hard.
