It snowed 8-9 inches today. Our family decided to make the most of all of this snow, even though we really would like to see it go away. Tonight Vera and Adam headed outside to play. They convinced me to come out and play too. I don't know who had more fun, Vera or Adam. We built a snow igloo on our porch. It worked out well because, according to Adam, "It was a solid foundation for the igloo and also out of the wind and cold for Vera." He was right. It turned out pretty cool.

Adam had it started when I arrived. It wasn't this far along. My job was to shovel buckets full. Adam did the engineer work. |
|
Vera has the best mom and dad. Or at least the best dad. He was pretty excited about the project. |
|
An igloo for two ladies. |
|
We built a little seat inside. |
|
And a window to watch for intruders. |
|
The finished product. It's supposed to be a castle. Vera said Princess Sofia lives here. |
I also showed Vera how to make a snow angel. She thought it was so fun to lay down in the snow.
|
Vera struggled with the angel-making, but she giggled the whole time she laid it the cold, wet snow. |
|
Happy girl! |
