Snow, Snow, Go Out in the Snow!

Watching a three year old enjoy the snow for the first time was a blast. We haven't had snow for four years, so it was a blast for ma and pa too. She ran out all bundled up and bent down to grab a handful. It was cold, wet and fun to throw. Built an eighteen inch high snowman that was more fun to knock over than build. We built three and all three got knocked over by her. I already knew she was into demolition, just take a look at our living room!! A few trips on the sled brought howls of laughter. But, the thing she liked the best puzzled me. She plopped down on her side and slowly rolled down the hill. Over and over, laughing all the way. We came in, warmed up, and went back out an hour later. Whee, I hope we get more today!!!

My son went out in the snow for the first time about a month ago. It was wonderful to watch - he just had the best time ever! Dad was out there filming with one hand and snapping pictures with the other. Even when he fell down and face planted into the snow, dad just kept on filming and snapping away. It was hysterical. We watch that tape every other day now, and howl with laughter!

We've had a LOT of snow here. It's been off and on, it would melt for a day or two, and then snow a ton again. It's snowing buckets now!

Just blog-hopping around!

Ah 3 is such a fun age, I've done a study, having snow in the yard to play with can reduce a dad's cleaning workload by as much as 50%
It must be a 3 year old thing knocking down the snow man, mine does it too, it really bothers my older kids that believe bigger is better.

Sounds like the stuff memories are made of. You're lucky you don't live around here right now (MN). I was -20 this morning. Yuk!
