Snow Fun!



After our week in FL we flew in to Chicago to lots of snow and weather in the 20's! This was a bit of a shock to our systems after the 80+ degree day we had in Sea World the day before!! Eeek!

Anyone who has talked to Valerie in the past month knows that she is currently obsessed with snowmen. She reads snowmen books, draws them constantly, and even arranges the food on her plate to look like a snowman. Her morning request is lately snowman pancakes. Therefore it was absolutely a treat and of high anticipation that Val got to build her first snowman ever (and Derrick's too!!!) at Grandpa Jeff and Grandma Debbie's. For clarification purposes, it was a bit too cold to actually build a nice snowman and the sun was setting soon. We had to pack the snow in the backyard where the sun was still warming it and bring it to the front for all to see (of course!).

That is awesome! I was just telling Colby the other day that I always thought of uncle Jeff as the grand master of snow sculpting. He made the most beautiful rabbit when I was a little girl!
Thats so funny that you clarified that you couldn't make a "nice" snowman. LOL
