Frosty the Snowman

Last weekend we went to the park near our house and walked around. It was in the mid 30s that day, so it felt quite "warm". So we decided to take advantage and spend some time outside while we can!

We walked around the park and watched the sledders go down the huge hill. It was so funny! Then, we walked out ONTO the lake. It's been frozen for a while now and since we saw other people out there, we decided to have our first walking on a lake experience! The ice had several inches of snow on it so you couldn't really see what you were walking on - which was probably a good thing. :-)

Then we decided to build our first snowman ON the lake. It was good because the snow had melted some so it was wetter which is good for packing the snow into snowballs. We forgot to take items to make his face, so we had to get creative with the sticks and leaves that surround the lake. Here are some pics from the park and our first snowman!
