In Summer, Autumn, Winter, and Spring

January, 2020 Snow in Beijing, 2020! Anabel in the snow: Because of the dry climate, it doesn't snow very much here, so we were all SOOOOOOO excited for the snow! Everything is frosted with thin layers of soft, white snow. The trees are covered with snow. The bikes, too! Freckles the bunny! In the back seat of a bike: On top of a "tree stump"... In a basket: Now, with her friend Huggie the teddy bear! Let's add another friend to the picture - Anabel! Dusting the snow off Huggie... There we go! Huggie is safe, dry, warm, and clean.
