Blog By Matt: Snow Day with Lilly

 Lilly and I took advantage of the 6 inches of snow we got this week.  Last winter, Lilly wasn't really big enough to do much in the snow so this was a special treat for her.


  Here I am clearing the driveway.  We don't have a sled (yet) so Gretchen brought out Lilly's swimming tube so she could "sled" down the tiny piles of snow.


We built a snowman together in the backyard.  Lilly named her "Sally".


Sally has celery for her mouth and eyebrows, a carrot for her nose and Oreos for her eyes.


Lilly didn't think she was done until she had "wings" so I stuck some evergreen branches in back. Lilly called her a snow angel.


Gretchen came out and took this photo of both of us.  Lilly REALLY liked making the snowman.  As soon as we were done, she pointed around the yard and said, "Okay, now make one here and here and here."

Did Gretchen realize that you wasted two Oreos?!?! You might owe her some cookies :)

Actually I only wasted 2 chocolate halves. I ate the cream and other half before giving them to Lilly. :)
