Friday was our first day of snow and up north you have to relish every bit of it,
lest it destroy you.
lest it destroy you.
I do not jest.
When the first flakes started to fly (and before it accumulated to a playable amount) we played with "snow" inside. I think I need to stock up on this fake snow after Christmas to last us through the rest of the winter.... which I believe lasts until May...
Around dinner time there was enough to play with and Nate declared it was time to make "snowball soup" (idea taken from one of Nate's favorite books. you should buy it)
We were still hungry after eating snowball soup so we made snowball waffles and ate snowball doughnuts. (my camera battery died so I didn't get to upload pics of those- it was just waffles with powder sugar sprinkled on it and white powder sugar doughnuts). And syrup of course because we elves try to stick to the four main food groups: candy, candy canes, candy corns and syrup.
Then we snuggled.

You make me laugh! Loved that Nate had a snow removal shirt on!
Ha I love this--I watched Elf last night so I could especially appreciate it.
Love it! I am going to have to take inspiration from your snow love attitude or a might self destruct this winter. This is totally random but are you the friend of mine that makes bacon in the oven? If so how the heck do you do that? I am dying to know. :)
ps- so glad to see that someone else is as addicted/loves crafty blogs as much as I do. I makes me want to start ten new projects a day!
I would like to have been there for the snuggling part. The snow you can keep. Wake me when winter's over. Love the pics; love those boys.
