Aren't these snowmen the most scrumptious little guys? My friend Kathy made them. She rolled out gumdrops to make the scarves and hats. The head is made from sugar cookies. So adorable and so yummy!
We had about 3 or 4 inches of snow fall here recently. It's so cold that pretty much everything sticks around and we get to enjoy the beauty of a winter wonderland for a few weeks. Over the summer I picked up a never-used sled at a garage sale. Clara played in it for a while in the living room before it made it to the garage. She had fun pulling it around and getting in and out of it with her books and toys.
After our first big snow fall, Tom was ready to take Clara for a ride. First he joked about hooking it up to his Jeep and taking Clara for a spin! Uh - no thanks! He needed to take something to a neighbor down the street so we bundled Clara up and put her in the sled. It's funny how the sled looks so much smaller now. I guess this is proof that Clara has grown a lot since the summer plus she was under several layers of puffy, warm clothes giving her lots of padding.
Clara seemed to enjoy her daddy-guided tour of the neighborhood...can't wait to take her sledding in a few months in Montana!
