How to make a snow angel



We had snow on Monday! We've had some flurries (even some rather heavy flurries) but this was the most snow we've had this winter. It didn't last long!



Doug's morning classes were canceled, and the kids in the complex were on a two-hour delay. (I guess the roads were slippery.) We got Kate all bundled up and went out to play in the snow. She got to use her cute pink boots that she got for her birthday.











The snow on the trees was so pretty!








Kate and Daddy made a snowman. Err... snow bunny.



Some of the neighbor kids (Oleg, Tram, and Carol) were out playing, too, and riding Oleg's disk sled down the hill by the Seventh-Day Adventist church right behind our complex. Kate got to ride on Oleg's sled, too.




The kids made snow angels in the (very empty) church parking lot. Kate was admiring the snow angels and wanted to make one too, so Doug helped her. I made this layout of the pictures:

It was pretty sunny while we were out and the snow was starting to melt already. By the next day it was raining and the snow was all gone. It was fun while it lasted!

The snow bunny is too cool! I love the snow angel layout. Your artwork is amazing. The Mo Willems books are a crowd favorite with my friend, Kim. I'll check them out at the library. I'm a Kevin Henkes fan, but there is always room for another great book!
