Playing in the Snow

Sophie has been asking to make a snowman for days now, and so today I thought, "Why not?" So we got bundled up and went out together.  The snow was perfect for making a snowman. Sophie thought it was fun rolling the giant balls and made sure we had every part of the snowman (eyes, nose, mouth, buttons, and a hat).  We didn't have the usual snowman parts, so we had to improvise but it still looks cute.  



Collin loved the snow as long as it was on the sidewalk.  I think he felt a little unsteady in such deep snow, or maybe it had something to do with the fact that he was wearing boots that were 2 sizes too big!  Along with making snowmen, Sophie discovered how fun it is to make snow angels.  She ran around the yard making angel after angel.  What a great time of year.  The kids also discovered the joy of eating snow.  When it was time to come in Sophie wouldn't leave her snow treat outside, so we put it in a bowl and she ate it inside! HaHa!
