Once There Was a Snowman

Once there was a snowman, snowman, snowman!
Once there was a snowman, tall, tall, tall!
 In the sun he melted, melted, melted.
In the sun he melted small, small, small!
 We were so excited to have fresh snow to go out and play in!  Molly couldn't remember ever making a snowman so out we went.  We made her some awesome shoe covers out of plastic bags and had a great time tromping around in the fluffy snow!  The skiers must be in heaven today!  The snow was so light and powdery that we couldn't get it to pack into snow balls. We decided to make him laying down on the deck.  He was quite happy to come to life with his dried blueberry eyes and mouth and his big carrot nose! Molly named him Bob.



 the timer can be tricky on an icy surface...
 Molly did great in her plastic boots.

 What a happy day!


 After watching Nana make a snow angel...Molly got brave and tried it herself.

 I made tracks for her to follow in, 
but she wanted to take her very own path! 

video clip if i can figure it out someday...

 One last photo with Bob :)

I love bob.
I am happy you can provide her with snow...it's something we've been unsuccessful with. We've been waiting all year to get enough at our house for a snowman and sledding.

Adorable pictures. Thanks

Love you!

Darling photos! Everyone should have a Bob in their lives...and granddaughters should give them that name. We know all about it!
