I received a notification on my Facebook account showing me memories from three years ago. Those are my photos of my first snow experience here in Northern Ireland. You see, I came from the Philippines which is a warm country and there's no winter season, just rain or shine.
I always dream of a White Christmas when I was young. I want to see snow and roll it in my hands and build a snowman. Just like in the movies that we can only watch and fantasize.
My dream was granted. My first White Christmas experience was in Seoul, Korea on our company tour. It was amazing but I never thought of what freezing temperature means until I was physically there and felt it right through my bones. π
I thought it always snows when you say winter. And I thought that it snows here in Northern Ireland every winter but I was wrong. It was a long time ago according to Mum, the last time they had heavy snow wherein you can make a snowman or cover up the place at least. The snow when Mum was young was so deep, it can bury your house as she told me.
So this happens in December 2017. The first time I saw this I was extremely happy! I was so excited because it barely snows here. Just cold weather and sleet.
From our back garden. You see our tunnel house coated with snow. I enjoy watching this view at that time. I enjoyed the moment. It was so magical to me!
And at the front, you can see the fields. What a fantastic sight!
And here I am looking so happy. π
It's not easy to make a snowman lol. Rolling this was hard work! Husband's hard work lol. Not mine. π
My husband did a very good job!
And here you go! Let's build a snowman! I am proud to say that I'm the one who sticks the carrot and the eyes too! π
And there you go, my first snowman!
But to tell you the truth I have to run inside the house coz I can't stand the cold! πππ I only want to take pictures. My husband laughs at me.
From 2017 it never snows again. Though I'm not looking forward to it, the kids do. I want to see them playing and build their snowman! βοΈ They would love it for sure.
Jigz and Tia keep asking me if it will snow. And I always say "we will see". Are we going to have White Christmas this year? We will see. β€β€β€
Hala gusto ko din yang Snow kahit one time lang ma experience manlang huehue. Pero parang ang nipis ng suot nyo, parang malamig pa din lalo na puro white dahil sa snow garabi π±π€©π€©
