snowman...proper

a few weeks ago AJ returned from school with this school craft.  a snowman.  hmmmm....


it became clear rather quickly that AJ obviously hadn't seen enough snow this winter to properly know how to "dress" a snowman.  last winter he was simply adjusting to the massive climate change.  he was surviving.  a slightly perturbed "Michelin" baby walking around somewhat stunned by the snow and cold and the insane amount of layers we wear in Canada (most winters) to stay warm.  well, after seeing his take home craft i determined that once there was a real snowfall we'd teach him how to make a proper snowman.  yesterday was the day.  the snow was ok for packing, it was really beautiful and not bitter cold out either.  all photos below taken by Joelle...




Hannah's "Lulu" won the imaginary prize...






next~ hot chocolate on the stove.  marshmallows.  fire crackling.  rosy cheeks. ohhh how i love weekends....now i'm ready for spring!  what's takin' so long?!?!  :)
