Winter Wonderland.
December 20th, 2009
Everything has been amazing. We’ve been in bliss mode with the wind just blowing us where we wish. The last few weeks have just taken my breath away again and again… and again.
Today is our 31 month anniversary. 31 of the happiest months of my life. Every month that creeps by reminds me of how my life was never complete without the man I love. I could not breathe without him by my side. When we’re apart, all I can do is cry. I may sound pathetic, but it reminds me of how the magic is never, ever lost. I love Nathan and nothing will ever change that.
The last few days here in London have been beautiful. It started to snow a few days ago. It was soft and fluffy at first and it kissed our swollen cheeks and lips. That night it seemed to just fall from the sky like ice cubes. We lay in bed with the lights off and watched it through our bay windows dance in the street. I have a street light right outside my bedroom window, and the orange glow made the snow even more alive. The next morning the whole place was quiet and white. The snow kept floating in the air around our heads and it has been on and off ever since. 4 days later the roads are all iced over and snow still remains in the shaded cool of the gardens and paths. We’re still being promised more, so we’re in for a big chance for a white Christmas. I’m so excited.
Our Christmas tree is up. We decorated it with beads and baubles and hooked candy canes over the branches. The presents are mainly under there, but I know I still have to wrap Nathan’s up, and he has to wrap mine. So I think I’ll take the right side of the room and he’ll take the left and we’ll have a wrapping race.
And today was magical. We walked in the snow in our favourite place where we always take our photographs. We sat on a hidden bench in the snowy forest and then came home. We went and rented 5 films, one of which is a nice Scottish romance one which we’ll curl up to tonight. We finished Christmas shopping and he brought us such yummy bread from an Italian market. The wind was so nippy on our eyes and our feet on the pavements were like Bambi on ice. It was so much fun all the same and it’s a day I’ll never, ever forget. Enough talking though. I’ll put some images below of all the snow we’ve had and I’ll start posting a lot more often again. I know probably no one reads this, but it’s quite a nice little personal record and journal for us.

From today.
From the other night when it snowed like anything!
