Game on-

Our cousin Graham came to visit for Thanksgiving. He lives in Arizona right now, and hasn't seen snow in ages. So, when it snowed on Thanksgiving day he was geared up and ready to go play. He wanted to make a snowman, and Michaela and I thought we'd make a competition out of it. Girls against boys. The problem came when we couldn't lift our snowballs even an inch. They wouldn't budge. So, we decided just to make him dead..."DOC" dead on creation. After a LOT of laughs, and trash-talking Michaela and I declared ourselves the winners. You be the judge...


The process...


The finished products--- Oh, and you've GOT to click on these to super-size them....it's all in the details people.

My favorite part was definitely his twig legs and boots.

Awesome snowmen! You and your sis are so creative! Please save some snow for us when we come in a few weeks! Nathan is asking for snow to play in every day and he doesn't understand that it's still 70 degrees here and it won't ever snow in Las Vegas. We just have to hope that is will in CO for Christmas!!

Great Snowman! There's a Calvin and Hobbes comic where Calvin built a snowman in front of his Dad's car in pieces and two looking on with mouths wide open in shock. It was great,

That's hilarious! I love it! By the way, it was so fun seeing Matt last weekend! He was just so upbeat and funny (but you know that). You'll have to go see my dad's blog to see the family pic Matt jumped in on (someone else's). I laughed so hard seeing his big smiling face popping up behind this sweet little family pic. Thanks for sharing him!
