I came back from the grocery store this weekend to find 3/4 of my guys out enjoying the melting snow and warm weather.
We've had so much snow this winter that we really haven't been able to have Eli out in it. It's just too deep. We'd lose him. The snow they are standing on in the above shot is about 20 inches deep still (yes, Brian is holding a yard stick).
I put away the groceries and looked out to find Brian and Eli making a snowman.
Well really, Brian was making it. Eli was enjoying un-making it.
But by the end, Eli had a new friend. The one he lovingly calls "Fossie do Sooow Mahn." He talks to him. Cheers for him. Waves out the windows at him. Even hugs him.
Only problem is that Fossie is melting rapidly now. I have a feeling my child is about to experience his first big loss.
Making way for his new friend, Smushy the Puddle.
