The snow started coming down about a block from Mamaw's house on our drive there. Kate was so, so super excited and started squealing as soon as she saw the flakes falling. All the kids were super happy and excited and couldn't wait to get out in it to play. We did have them wait a bit, because we had had so much rain for days before the snow started falling and there were lakes in the yard.... Mom was so sweet to go out and scoop up a bowl for the kids to make a little snowman with. They got him all shaped and added raisin eyes, a carrot nose and a scarf made from ric-rac. Kate was so, so happy with this little 'Frosty' and she immediately had Mom put him in her freezer for safe keeping. I wonder when the next time she asks to peek at him will be. :) When there was a bit of snow on the ground and they couldn't contain their excitement, we let them loose in the front yard because there was much less standing water. They loved making snow angels and drawing in the snow. I love to see how their imaginations work - as usual. They were thrilled to be out in that wet, fluffy white stuff, even if just for a little while....
