Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!

It has been snowing most of the day but finally started to stick around 2 pm as Owen went to sleep for a late nap. He was thrilled to wake up to a thin blanket of the white stuff, and immediately asked Abram to take him out to make a snowman. He had big plans and got three carrots from the drawer for noses for a whole family of snowpeople: a daddy snowman, a mama snowman, and a baby snowman.
I was amazed that they made one large snowman before it got dark.

Here are Owen's directions for a snowman:
We put a carrot for a nose.
(Prompted by Abram on different parts, he elaborates. . .)
Pine cones for eyes, pine needles for hair.
