Snowman

The grandkids are at the cabin on Whidbey Island with Jill and Jake for the three day weekend, where they have no snow.  


But that doesn't stop me from having my own kid fun.  I built a snowman this  morning.


 I had to get Tom out to help me lift the mid section, and then he took photos.  He's not much for playing in the snow.

 Gotta' get the head secured.
 He needs arms.

Charcoal eyes, a carrot nose, cedar trig mouth, and of course, Frosty's broomstick.  And a fisherman's hat for when it rains.
 It looks like a snow party.
Should we serve snow cones?

  1. I think both you and your snowman are fabulous. I'll bet the grandkids are wishing they were at your house playing with you.

  11. Why is it that when we vacation in Sedona, Arizona to get out of the Seattle rain, there's a huge snow?

    Love your snowman! From what I hear, you may have enough of the white stuff to build some friends for the first guy!

  13. Nice Story. I think I like building snowmen even better than when I was a child. I get much more creative now.The only problem is that it is harder for me to get started. My experience reminds me how cold and wet I'll probably get. (The bad part of getting older/wiser) I no longer think like a child though I haven't given up childish ways.
