As we rolled the huge balls of snowman-perfect snow, I realized that this is also the first snowman Darren and I made together. In TWELVE YEARS?? But it makes sense: we met back in 1996 and rushed right off to Dallas. 14 months later, we packed up and headed to the desert, where it did actually snow once when we were there (Valentine's Day 1999) but of course it melted upon contact. Two years ago, we finally moved to Denver, and in our first winter we had a record number of inches of snowfall but with two babies (yes two... neither Tevin nor Brynlee was able to walk), we weren't outside too often! Last winter, Brynlee was just crawling, so cabin fever was the name of our game once again. FINALLY, this year, we've got two walking, talking kids, and it's been SO wonderful to experience the fun of the cold weather with them.
Our next door neighbors happened to be outside at the same time so we started building snowthings together! Darren made the Snowfish, and then all of us built a fort around Tevin and Dylan. FUN DAY!
