It's Frosty!!!

It snowed!!!

When they were talking about us likely getting some snow last week I never mentioned it to Olivia because I just wasn't sure if it was going to actually happen. Of course, it ended up snowing around 3 inches on the day Olivia actually slept in 8 am (that NEVER happens). We didn't bother to wake her and it was a good thing because she had no interest in playing in it.

It was Hays' morning to get up with the earliest chirping birdie (Ford) and he was chomping at the bit to come wake me and Olivia up to play. After FINALLY waking and eating breakfast we got her all geared up to go outside and she would NOT budge. Hays went out and built a snowman by himself while the three of us watched from the warm and cozy window. We had to beg her to go out and take one picture. It was very surprising to me that she would not be interested especially in Frosty because she LOVES that story. She likes it so much that the book stays down year round and we will continue to read it way after the holiday season.

Silly girl. You can see her checking out Frosty out of the corner of her eyes. She just wasn't too sure about the whole situation.

It was beautiful! Isn't God good??!!

Ford didn't seem to mind the cold, snow or Frosty, really...

She did help dress him though. She was so excited to dig through the pantry looking for his eyes, nose and mouth. We had to be creative...hence the chocolate cheerio eyes, carrot nose, cheese puff mouth and Hershey kiss buttons.

The sun came out and Frosty didn't last long.

It was a sad day when Frosty disappeared.

Maybe next time it snows Olivia will be a little more sure about it and Ford will be mobile and able to play in it. Let's hope it's not forever before it happens again...
