There's a few things I've learned over the years, two of which are: In Cleveland, Ohio between the months of October-May...if it is a bright sunny day...then you drop everything and go outside to soak up the sunshine and enjoy the wonderful weather. In Nampa, Idaho between the months of November to March...if it snows? Then you drop everything and go play in it because chances are...the snow will be gone within a couple of days.
It snowed Saturday.
So Addy jumped on the snowy trampoline.
And we built a snowman. A huge ginormous snowman.
And Addy got sled rides from Rachel.
And Andy benchpressed the snowman's head.
Andy and Taylor proved their strength...
for a little while anyway...
thus the bench pressing of the head...
we learned about simple tools...using a ramp to build the body
Everybody helped in some way...
Lainah had to test out the view from way up there!
And there he is...our huge amazing snowman. We named him "Ohuge" instead of "Olaf." Complete with flower pot hat...plastic binoculars for eyes (my own personal touch there) and using Matthew's Army National Guard cup for a nose. Oh, and Rachel's purple scarf. Matthew was at a friend's birthday party so he missed out this time.
It's now Sunday.
The snowman's hat, binoculars, and nose have all fallen off...it's all hunched over and will soon fall forward onto what used to be it's face. :) Its a good thing we went out and played in the snow while we had it...because it will be gone soon!
