SNOW much fun!!

This post is a little late coming, but better late than never!!!

This years winter in Utah has been a "little" drier than normal. I am NOT complaining whatsoever!!! We finally had a "snow storm" which gave us about 3 inches. Which is nothing compared to the last few years. 2 days before these pictures were taken I took the kids for a walk down to a park, had a picnic and played. It was brilliant!  I don't care for the snow, but R was SO excited. She has very little/or no memory of snow. She was thrilled!!! R did a good job shoveling the front walk............ ok she is just posing with the shovel! :)

R thought it was so cool that her snow clothes did their job, and kept her warm and dry!

 P wanted to be outside SO bad

 But he could care less about the snow. A child after my own heart!

 R learned how to do a snow angel

 the end product. Pretty perfect!

 Then she started making her own snowman. Jared was out shoveling widow's driveways, so he wasn't there to help. I was in shorts and gym shoes, and had the camera. But the kid knew how to build a snowman. I asked her where she learned to build a snowman and she said "Max and Ruby". LOL!!! For those of you without kids that is a kids cartoon show. Really, my kid doesn't watch that much TV, but I guess what she does watch is teaching her something!

I tried to upload a video here of her making her snowman, but it wouldn't work :(

 We kept referring to this as a snowman and she kept correcting us with "snow princess". Typical!

 She then made another one, but didn't get all dressed up like the first. So I called these the princess and the pauper! :)

 Jared then decided to one up his own kid and make a HUGE snowman. This was the bottom ball.

 R practicing her snowboard moves on top of the huge snowball!

 Jared's snowman. R referred to this one as "the king"

 R could have spent all day out there. Luckily I convinced her to come inside to warm up. Her little nose was so red!
