Here's one Olaf who got a 'warm hug' on a very special day!

A Donegal girl had a magical wish come true when a real Olaf snowman appeared in her garden this week – all thanks to her big brother.

Ella Warner, who has just turned 3, from Creeslough is a big fan of Disney’s Frozen movie, which features the lovable snowman named Olaf.

However, Ella wasn’t feeling well last week when her hometown became an Arendelle-like winter wonderland. She didn’t get a chance to enjoy the excitement of the snow with her family, but on her birthday morning she got the ultimate surprise.

Ella’s older brother Kyle, aged 10, knew that a thaw was setting in on Sunday. Staying out until dark on Saturday, Kyle built a brilliant Olaf for Ella to surprise her on her birthday morning.

Mum Martina told Donegal Woman: “Her excitement was unbelievable this morning and really made her birthday a memorable one (until Olaf started to melt in the afternoon!)”

But as Olaf puts it himself: some people are worth melting for.
