Frosty the snowman





Hello to all! Well yesterday was a fun day as we had some sun and we played in the snow with Daddy. We have a "snowman kit" that a coworker of Kelly's from Missouri gave us for Christmas one year. It comes complete with a scarf, coal for eyes (not real coal), button nose and a corn cob pipe. The container that holds all the goodies is a plastic coffee can painted black and it has the Frosty painted on it. The coffee can also doubles as frosty's hat. It is complete with a black craft foam brim that goes around it to look like a top hat. It was so much fun and the kids could hardly wait to build him. Yesterday it was sunny, but only 15 degrees outside so that can make it hard to build a snowman. But as you can see from the pictures we were successful!! Luke came in after a short time from the snow crying. He was shaking his hands and seemed almost irritated. I held him and told him you will get used to this feeling. I guess he doesn't like the feeling of his hands warming up again. This morning as we were pulling out of the driveway Faith said " oh no, Frosty is going to melt!" I said Faith he is definitely not going to melt, but if he does I will eat my hat. She thought that was quite funny. Don't worry about the hat eating it is still only a balmy 22 degrees here today. God Bless- Crystal
