Snow...man!

We finally got some snow here last week!  It's been an incredibly dry winter. We have a whole list of things on our "winter to-do list" that required snow that we hadn't been able to check off.  Well, last Saturday, we were able to get "build a snowman" checked off the list.  

Our neighbors, the Brandt's, built a nice, big snowman before we got out there to do ours.  I challenged Kendall to make his bigger than theirs.  So, after assembling the traditional 3 ball snowman, we got out our tape measure to see if ours was bigger.  It was a few inches shorter!  So, Kendall made a 4th ball and put it on top! :)  Now, it was the biggest on the street. :)  

After getting the size right, we decided to add some flair with our spray paint....pants, shirt, scarf....he was looking good!  








Our best one yet, I'd say!

I'm so glad we could serve up a little competition for u guys!! Too bad we didn't know we were competeing or we would have made our bigger!! Lol... We loved your snowman & the extra flair made it even better!! We ended up putting antlers on ours & were in the process of making it better, when some rude, random teenagers came around & chopped all the heads off all the snowman on our street!! Seriously some parents need to control their children!! Oh well, they were fun to build & look at for at least the day!!
