Snow Day

8:28 a.m.  Once upon a time, it actually snowed in Tucson, AZ.  The children were VERY happy!


Mom went and dug out the buried "Winter" box from the garage and they dressed up warmly to hit the slopes! (In this little clip, watch how this young boy imitates his elder sister almost to the T!)

8:37 a.m. The young girl began to roll and roll the body of the man of snow they would create.

The new 4 year old  looked adorable as she made a large ball of snow.

The young boy was not quite as helpful.  He could not resist sitting on every ball of snow that was created for the man of snow.

But I must admit, he did look rather cute sitting on his thrown of snow. 

Once there was a snowman...

Tall, tall,











The sprinklers made him FALL  :(
(try again....)  Tall! :) 

8:58 a.m   The 2 children were very happy with their man of snow!  

Behind the scenes...you've gotta watch the whole thing!  So cute!

10:12 a.m.  Daddy came home from his early morning meeting and we introduced him to Chuck.  Poor chuck was already on his way to the land of H2O.  The sprinklers coming on in the making didn't help.

 In the sun he melted!

Then we go to church for ~4 hours (20 minutes driving each direction)

4:48 pm  This is all that remains!  Melted, melted, melted...

Small, small, small!!  The kids couldn't believe he was gone.   Sure was fun while it lasted though!  
Don't worry kids....he'll be back again someday!
