Snow day take 2

We woke up to 6 inches of fresh snow! And the sun was out too.  We borrowed some proper snow gear from our friends and we hit the powder!  It was so much fun...and we lasted so much longer with the sun and warm clothes!  *side note...Paxton did not have gloves so I put a pair of cotton mittens on his hands then a ziploc baggie then a pair of my wool socks.  His hands were covered in snow but when I took the layers off, his hands were warm and sweaty!  Score 1 for the homemade gloves! In the morning we hit up the playground and a hill for some sledding.  It was so much fun playing with all the neighbors.  I am not sure who had more fun the kids or the adults!
We went sledding on feed sacks
Took me back to my younger days!
These 2!
Love this mama!!!!
So this requires an explanation!  Our neighborhood had a snowman building contest. So, after lunch and naps we bundled up and went back out to make our entry!  Kristin had already started rolling the bottom layer and I started working on the middle section.  When we got them side by side they were exactly the same size and oddly enough looked like a pair of snow boobs!  We had to make a bikini to keep them decent! We were too embarrassed to enter this into the contest so we kept working and ended up making 3 blind mICE, repurposing our halloween costumes!  We won "most creative"!
