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.
