The advancing snowman hoard!

Yesterday evening around Grayson's bedtime, Denise went out for a walk in the snow storm. Denise loves the snow. Like a good sister I texted her to make sure she still had use of her fingers. She said she was single handedly building a snowman army at the castle. This is when I got the insane desire to go out in the snow! So I wrangled Greg and Grayson and forced them out into the elements and we walked to the castle (it is a park often featured in our blog posts) This is what we found and did.


This is what Denise had already done when we arrived.



Grayson would look up at the sky and eat the snow that fell in his mouth and say yummy!



We get the urge to build our own superior snowman! 


It is going to be the BEST!


Or at least the biggest


Here goes the middle! It was really heavy. I was underneath pushing.



The head was pretty light



Getting it to go up was an issue but we did it!


The horde of snowmen guarding there castle in the distance

Daddy and Grayson by our snowman! 



Grayson was pretty tired but not at all cold! (thank you Nana!) 
He stated trying to go in circles and then he would fall down and roll in the snow.









Denise happy as a calm in the snow!


After we got back Grayson ate some homemade bread and peanut butter for a snack 
and then it was bedtime!

It was really weird cause I hate snow and the cold but I wanted to go out. Having the appropriate winter attire really does make it fun.
