My First Snowman

With some help, Hunter got to build his first snowman today.

His hat of choice was the bright red fireman hat, carefully selected from the dress-up box. He got a raisin mouth and eyes and the classic carrot nose. With six inches of packing snow, it was the perfect day for this traditional creation.

He liked rolling the balls to make them bigger, but we had some trouble stacking each piece on top of each other since they kept breaking. But finally, we got down to the finishing touches, with carrot carefully pressed by Hunter and arms delicately added.

And then came time for pictures, of course. Which Hunter amazingly cooperated for. And since it is probably going to rain tomorrow, this 2.5 foot creation probably won't last too long. But it was fun while it lasted.














"Hath the rain a father? or who hath begotten the drops of dew? Out of whose womb came the ice? and the hoary frost of heaven, who hath gendered it?"

Job 38:28-29
