on day two of the very snowiest snow weekend, we decided that maaaybe it was time to break free of our hibernation! clearly, we needed to be romping on more snow-covered lands with more snow-playing people, and so! we ventured over to join the farm party… naturally!
[ps! how preciously adorable is this snowy farmhouse on a hill? that farm is really my favorite part of the view from our house… i can’t ever get over how much i love it. and covered in snow! what a postcard! i’m dying to just knock on their door…]
…gosh, i love how gorgeous and perfect and cozy and adorable everything on the farm is when it’s covered in snow! like, the barns! oh, barns in snow are just the loveliest, i think.
anyway, we built the cutest frosty the snowman [maddalena’s official name for him! custom top-hat courtesy of my brother! i was mostly on face and buttons duty, myself.]. then the boys threw their ridiculously hard-packed snowballs at the icicles dangling from the roof, and when i tried i just accidentally hit a window. haha. and and!! we sledded! we didn’t have a sled, but we made it happen with cardboard boxes, a baking sheet, and candle wax. weeeeee! also, little minnie, who just loooves a good snow romp, even if she can barely make her way through it… she ended her day with a nice, warm bath after collecting bunches of completely solid iceballs all through her fluffy fur. and rocco?! slept through the whooooole thing!
so, while i’m now definitely ready to have warm feet/animals/air/etc, little snow adventures like these are always such memorable ones. thanks for the snow party, fam!! oh! and thanks, mom, for letting me steal pics off your iphoney. as always! 🙂
Sounds like so much fun! And what a perfect little frosty the snowman! Our snow is at least 3 hours away 🙁 Wish we could romp around in all that fluffiness!
Wow you are so right about those barns covered in snow! Magic right there if you ask me. I can't believe how crafty you guys are with sleds! I knew it was coming and asked my parents to borrow my sled from when I was a kid in Maine. My mom. She saves all. Well I'm glad you got at least one snow play this season!
Gorgeous pics! Snow is so magical, it makes me so happy! Sadly, eastern NC didn't get any 🙁 looks like you guys had a blast!!
