The week of Christmas we got a snowfall that had the perfect snow for building a snowman. I tried to talk Brode into getting outside because we had the perfect kit for building "Frosty" but he wanted nothing to do with it. He loves going outside at day care but these days he wanted to stay in.
2 days later I finally got him out, but unfortunately it wasn't packy anymore. We worked with what we had and Brode made his first snowman!
This little guy stands right outside our front living room window so every once and a while throughout the holiday season Brode would walk by and say "I wanna see Frosty, Look there is Frosty! Mom see Frosty?"

Frosty is long melted by now after we had 40 degree weather this past weekend and the grass started to show, but now we always have pictures of Brode's first snowman of many to come!
Bulding our 2 foot tall snowman didn't take long so we needed more outside activities to keep Brode busy and get the bundling up process worth it. First we shoveled:

Brode seems to think shoveling the grass is a much better idea, and instead of throwing it into the grass it goes straight in the air and lands right back on him.
Second, we filled a squirt bottle with blue food-colored water and turned the snow blue!
