Once there was a snowman...

We have tried in vain to build a snowman since we arrived in Finland. My friend told me that when it is really cold outside that the snow is too dry to mold. Now that the temperature is hovering around the freezing point, we have been able to build our very first snowman! Ryan was excited to roll the snowball around in the snow and watch it grow bigger and bigger. Ben was only concerned that the snowman have eyes. Instead of leaving the snowman at the park for others to enjoy, we shoved it over in a mighty push and the boys stood on the conquered snow. As you can see by the picture, Leah also had a full day at the park.
