Let it Snow!

We got our first winter storm last week, and ended up with about 4 inches of snow. Lucy enjoys looking at the snow, and loves to point out the window and yell "Snow!" at the top of her lungs. She does this several times each day. She's mostly thrilled about going out to play in the show, as long as it's no deeper than an inch or so. She started crying little frozen tears when she realized that the snow was up to her ankles.

Daddy built this little snowman and put it in the window for her to see. Sadly, he only lasted a few days before the neighbor cat jumped up on the outside window sill and knocked him down. Now, we console ourselves by taking Lucy over to Wal-Mart about 3 times a week to see all the snowman decorations. She loves the inflatable snowglobe that goes out on the lawn. Here's a picture of a similar one (because walmart.com doesn't have theirs online). It's neat--it even snows inside the snowglobe. This is much easier to clean up than the real stuff.
