Meet Mr. Snowman and his dog

We got a winter preview this weekend, and the boys were in 7th heaven! Saturday morning, big heavy snowflakes covered the ground and the boys hurried right outside to play in it. With Rick's help they made this great snowman and his dog. They had to use all of the snow in the entire yard to finish their creations. They had a great time, but I am thankful that it was just a preview and that winter is not here to stay. I think we have a few more weeks before the snow will fall and stick around for good.

The dog is honestly adorable! And so are the boys riding on top of old Bear! Glad they had so much fun playing in the snow, but sad you weren't here with us! Hopefully you'll have a while longer until the snow is there to stay!

Those are the cutest boys and the snowman and dog were so cute! They had so much fun and Noah's little cheeks were so red, but he was happy! It's so fun to be able to see my special little grandsons every day! Love them all!

How fun!!! I am sure Kaden will be jealous when I show him these pictures. My kids really missed the snow this last year. Hopefully we will get a little bit here this winter.

So cute! My kids were out of town and missed the snow. I felt bad when I saw the Butikofer girls out playing in it but they will get the chance for snow friends soon enough. Love the dog!

Very creative and looks like soooo much fun!

That. Is. Awesome.

I love that the "snowman and his dog" are on green-green grass! Way to use every last speck of snow!

It's so strange to think of snow and coats when it's a whopping 91 degrees here!

Seriously, snow is awesome! And I love the pictures!

Very cute! I do have to say that I'm glad the snow was there and not here. I am not ready for winter yet! Your boys did a great job!!

Just one of the joys of living here of course one of the other joys would be spending time with me and your favorite McNeil nieces, of wait the only McNeil nieces. I am glad the boys, inlcuding Rick, had such a fun time. It makes the shock of it worth while!

Snow! I can't believe you guys already have snow. Those are some pretty awesome snow friends. Very creative.

Wow, snow!!! It looks so fun. I hope we'll see some in December when we come to Utah for my sister's wedding.

I was thinking how glad I was that I missed the first snow of the year but playing in it does look so fun!!! I am glad the boys had enough fun for us all, they look so cute! I can't wait until Christmas and maybe I can have them teach me to make a snow dog!!

I love the dog-I can't believe that is Noah, he's so big! I too got a winter preview... I was in Logan this past weekend and I happily returned to warm weather today! I am getting so excited to see you soon.

The boys looked like they had a blast. When are you coming down?

Giselle Rasheta said...

Ha ha, I love the green grass underneath and the fact that it looks like you had to scrape EVERY flake from the ground to make those awesome snowmen!
