Snow much fun!

My family and I had lots of fun in the snow! Our day started off by coming up with creative ideas on how to bundle up. Who has snow clothes in the south! My mom found mine and my brother's old snow suits from the early 80's and we discovered that the rubber gloves you use in the kitchen work great over cotton gloves to keep their little hands warm and dry. We used Walmart bags and electrical tape to keep their feet dry. We did doughnuts on the 4 wheeler and used our garbage can lid to sit on and let the 4 wheeler pull us. We of course built a snowman, but not just any snowman. Our snowman reached 9ft 1in tall. It was crazy! We had to pull out the ladder. Later on in the day the top part of the snowman fell off and Haley said "Frosty didn't have a very good life" she cracks me up. After we put the kids to bed Mike went back outside and put the snowman back together for the kids. Darren woke up and looked outside. He said " Mommy the snowman came back!" He couldn't believe it, so I had to explain that daddy put it back together. I didn't want to give him a complex about snowmen. I have pictures but my laptop crashed and I need to have our camera's software to download our pics. Hopefully I will be able to get them up soon.
