Winter Wonderland-Texas Style

A winter storm come through Monday night and we awoke to bright white snow on the ground. It was lots of fun to bundle up Sawyer while Chloe napped inside and let him play in the snow. He wanted to sit in the snow which was great because he kept getting more and more wet. He kept trying to remove his mittens, but it was so cold that I wanted him to keep them on his little hands. We were working against the clock, though, because the snow was very quickly melting.

I was getting ready to take this picture and Sawyer said, "Frosty, look at Mommy, Frosty!" I was laughing so hard I was crying. He hears us tell he and Chloe that all the time.

We used gum balls for the eyes, an orange slice for the nose, and Fruit Loops for the mouth. I had to be creative. We Texans don't usually have snowman accessories on hand.

Sawyer didn't want to go back inside. He was sad that the snow was melting.
