The little snowman that could




Victoria by her snowman (you have to look REALLY hard to see it)


Victoria has been bugging about making a snowman since Dec 1st. Her papaw has talked about making them and she has checked outside about everyday since to see if it has snowed. Well today she checked and sure enough HUGE fluffy flakes were falling. We both got excited because it was a very pretty snow. I grabbed the monitor and camera and had her put on her "sproklie" tights that Santa brought her and layered her up and we went outside to play. Daddy was leaving for work but didn't miss the opportunity to throw a snowball or two himself. Victoria had a ball and I have to admit that I did too. We caught snowflakes on our tongues. (as you can see by the pic) and Victoria and I finally made our snowman. It is about 6 inches high but you would of thought that it was 6 feet tall judging by Victoria's reaction. The snow was melted by noon but our lil guy made it. I sat him on our porch so that Victoria could open the door and give him a peak when she wanted to see him. She is now telling me that we have to go to Walmart and get a magic hat, thanks to Grandpa Jerry, so that he will become real. What a magical morning. All that we need is a glue stick to put in his hand.
