Frosty

Saturday we had some more snowfall. It wasn't a lot, only probably an inch sticking on the ground. Zach decided he wanted to play in it and it seemed to be perfect timing. Sarah was down for her nap and Brad was going out to do a quick shovelling of the driveway. By the time I got Zach into all his snow gear (which seemed to be overkill, but I figured it would keep him dry at least), Brad was nearly done shovelling. Zach was having a blast just walking around the yard and making the occasional snowball. When Brad got done, he was making a snowball to discover it was perfect for rolling. So, his first idea was just to see how big of a snowball he could roll. As it got bigger and harder to move, he decided that a snowman was in order. So, we ended up with a nice sized snowman. Zach really got into helping after he saw what his dad was up to and helped out to make the snowman happen, including making sure he had a face. Brad asked Zach what the snowman's name should be and Zach named him Frosty. I guess that shouldn't be a surprise. It was a lot of fun to watch them doing it. I actually surprised myself by staying out there so long watching, I hate being cold. But Zach was enjoying himself a lot and it is always fun to see the world through his eyes.
