On my fifth official snow day (the 8th of the school year) we decided it was time to go and build some snowmen. It was the first sunny day we had seen in a long time, and the sun was hitting the snow in the backyard just right. Perfect snowman making weather! We went to work not realizing just how hard of work that was. I became the official snow roller, which I was amazingly good at, and Skyler became the sculptor. I really think he has another career to fall back on if he ever gets tired of being a lawyer! After about two hours of building I soon realized that my body felt like it does after shoveling for two hours. So, if you want a full body workout, snowman building is for you!
The "roller" hard at work!

Our completed masterpieces!

The protectors of our house!

As of 3:15 p.m. Friday, our snow people are still holding on strong. That's more than I can say for the neighbor's snowman across the street. The poor snowman was decapitated by the sun yesterday. He just couldn't hold on.
