Snow Routine OR When My Dad Drags My Brother Outside to Get Cold

Here's what happens when it snows at our house. Daddy jumps up in the morning and peeps out the window into the front yard. Then he looks through the kitchen window into the backyard. Then he skips around like a little schoolboy. When my older brother wakes up, Dad officially drafts him into snow training. He makes my brother put on a lot of clothes and then they go out into the cold. I don't think I am missing much.


Here's my brother and his snowman. It was built in a very short amount of time. (My brother is on the left. The snowman is on the right.)

Here is my brother eating his first snow cream. He said it was really good. I am sure that it was great. Go ahead, brother, and eat your cold snow cream. I have got an inside scope on an endless supply of cream AND it is warm (I didn't include a picture of that).

Your mom and dad might not want to know about the article I read the other day about eating snow.... but the good news is that it said there was no more bacteria in snow than in dirt. ;-)

In regards to the cleanliness of snow. . our philosophy, you are only a kid once, so as long as the snow isn't yellow. . eat away :-) Looks like you all had as much fun in the snow as we did! We are definitely hoping its over for this winter though!

This would have been an "all winter project" if you were in Maine. I talked with friends who said they had 50 (count 'em) inches of snow, and that was last month!!! Blessings, Ross and Pat

Still got snow? Or maybe some new pics of spring flowers with two cute boys? :)
