Snow Kids

Yesterday was bitterly cold and painful to be outside.  Today was the total opposite.  Bright, clear blue skies, no wind, and warmer temps.  We headed out after lunch...
Overnight the snow changed from dry powder to icy, packable snow.  We could finally play with it and build things.  Here are our snow kids...
 
We decided they looked cuter personalized...
  
Then we played with the mountain on the back porch...
  
The kids wanted a tunnel, but we didn't want them crawling through it- too dangerous, so we made a cave instead.  Julia made it her own little doghouse....
