February Snowman...

The kids couldn't have been happier when the snow fell.
Just enough to go make a snowman.

Only thing is....
For the first time ever...
their favorite playmate, daddy, is out of town!

Mommy actually had to go out and get her snowman on. :)
And we did just that.
It was that kind of day...it was warm enough to stay out and play for hours but I knew we only had a couple hours that the snow was going to stay good enough to pack into a snowman.....
The snow was continuing to come down...but it was that pellet kind of snow at this point....
It wouldn't pack into anything.

So....We got to rolling and packing, and making a dog-gone good snowman!

Our friends came over to check it out too.

The kids named him snowy.
He was a nice wintery addition to our yard!

There is nothing quite like a fresh snowfall...
especially in our area where we don't get A LOT...
But add a snowman to that...
a couple cute, hardworking kids...
and some homemade hot cocoa afterward.
THAT, my friends, is my perfect day.
