We had some good snow about a week and a half ago, but it was icy, crunchy, no fun to play in hard snow. It was good for sledding, but not for making snowmen. It rained for a couple days and there was only the smallest trace of snow left in our yard last night. Then this morning, Josh got up and went to his 7:30 church meeting while I got the kids ready to go to church. After he left, it started to snow. We left the house around 8:30 because the roads were starting to build up a lot of snow. By the time we got to church there was about 4". Big, huge, silver dollar sized flakes, and LOTS of them.
Church got shortened to about a half hour, after passing the sacrament they looked out the windows, saw it was still coming down really fast, and had a closing song and prayer. Shortest church ever! By the time we got home, there was 6-7 inches in our yard and it was still snowing. So we played in the snow and built some awesome snowmen. BIG ones.
Josh says this is the "Best snowman I've ever built." It's taller than our roofline and the base is about 5' in diameter.
I love the details that he added. A fence post stabbed through the middle for arms, a snow shovel (I think he'd better get to work on the sidewalk!) he even has gloves, and a traffic cone hat.
The girls built this little snowlady all by themselves!
