Hazel the Snowman

Most of yesterday's snow was still blanketing our neighborhood this morning . . .


. . . so Daddy and the girls went outside to build a snowman (that activity's been on Joy's bucket list for a few years now).  Anna didn't want to get her thin, cotton gloves wet and cold, so she chose to help by gathering snow with a dustpan.


Joy named the little snowman Hazel, because she used hazelnuts from our nut bowl for his eyes.


Then Anna made a snow angel . . .


. . . and Joy tobogganed on the bunny hill . . .


. . . and they both quickly concluded that if it's chilly enough for water to remain in a solid state, that means it's really, really cold out.


Why, oh, why must snow be so cold?!?


Daniel and Todd: "We don't know, but there's a reason we're inside building snap circuits instead."
