a dream come true.....

Madison has been waiting for snow.


Living on the coast in Virginia, it doesn't happen to often.


With a snowstorm finally predicted,


my sister gathered up sticks,


and made sure she bought a carrot.


(She says she bought all the important stuff too...


like milk and bread.)


But the carrot was very important...


Madison was going to make her first snowman!!





It snowed and snowed. It was perfect to lay in and make snow angels!






It was fun for Madison and her older brother Joey to take turns buring each other in the snow.




It was that light fluffy kinda snow that swirls around and makes everything pretty.


But it wasn't right for making snowmen.


Not sticky and wet enough.


Bummer.


No snowman on Saturday.




But then the sun came out on Sunday.


It warmed things up enough.....


made the snow nice and sticky!




Madison was able to build her first snowman....


carrot nose and all.......
