Poppy’s Snowman

Today, we were drawing. I’d draw the outline, Poppy & Joe would colour in. Here’s Poppy’s snowman. It looks a bit like a burning snowman, so thought I’d share it.

The first snow-day of the season

Andrew, Greg & I went to Xscape in Glasgow, for a bit of Skiing. I drove, Andrew settled down in the back with book. (They’re Poppy’s glasses btw)

I tried skiing for a while too. The kit fella asked me if I could ski. I said it had been a while, but yes (I skied for a week, when I was 12, on a school trip, and haven’t been on skis since). Could I control my turns, and stop? “Sure” I said. Standing with my skis on at the top of the slope, I started to question if it was one of my better ideas. Andrew gave me a quick refresher at the top of the slope, right before I fell flat on my face.  After a couple of runs, I was kinda doing ok- or at least, I wasn’t falling over on every turn. Think I’ll stick to boarding though..

Poppy and the Gruffalo

We found the gruffalo in John Lewis. Poppy was thrilled, although cautious of being eaten.

(I told her the Gruffalo’s favourite food was Poppy Pie!)
