Snow Day


Yesterday morning, when we stepped outside to let the dog out we found a nice little surprise, snow. This is a big deal for a little desert town, so of course we layered up and went outside to play in it.

Giovanni couldn't quite put his arms down for so many layers! I felt like the mother in A Christmas Story who stuffed her son in so many layers his arms stuck out and he could barely walk and when he fell over in the snow he couldn't get up so Ralphy had to come help him.

Daddy started building a snowman. Giovanni was watching with this arms stuck out.


Giovanni looked very pleased with his snowball.

Giovanni helped build the snowman.Carrot for a nose, stones for eyes and teeth.

Giovanni was so pleased with his new friend, he gave him a big hug.We went across the street and helped our neighbors with their snowmen.

The snow was so enticing Giovanni decided to taste it and found a leaf.

Giovanni pulled the carrot-nose off the snowman's face and played it like a flute.
Giovanni loved his snowman so much he gave him a snowball heart.
