Our snow is usually the dry powdery stuff so when I woke up this morning and saw the huge wet snowflakes coming down I knew what we were going to do this morning. My son has been asking for snow lately anyway so I knew when he saw it we'd be outside right after breakfast!
He had fun rolling and picking up "Frosty's head". "I can do it all by self." was fun to hear right before..."Heavy Mommy! Help with the head! No fall!" So he did it mostly by himself!!!
"Snowman eating rocks Mommy!" Since that's what we used to make the eyes and mouth. We tried to arrange the leaves that stuck in as buttons down the front! Then, he stood back and looked saying "eyes, nose, mouth, arms. I know a hat!"
What frosty is finished without a hat - the first one I found was the one my hubby uses to mow the lawn - it seemed to do the trick.
Then we had fun throwing snowballs and walking around the block. Since there wasn't much snow left in our front yard!
Seeing Ashlee's post the other day about Frosty in her freezer reminded me of something we used to do as kids. We'd put snowballs in the freezer and get them out on the 4th of July. They become more like ice balls in the freezer but it was always fun to play with them while they melted in the summer heat! So we'll be doing that this year too!

He looks so proud of his snowman!! And I think that hat did the trick! It looks great!!! I love that idea about putting snow balls in the freezer! How fun!
What fun! I can't remember the last time I was in snow, maybe ten years ago?
Your son looks like he had a blast. That hat he's wearing, too cute!
Oh how fun. Snow in the freezer? I might try that if we get any more snow!
