Yeah we did it


We are in the midst of a major snow storm and the temperature was -8 degrees 2 days ago. (right now it is -11 outside and with the wind chill it is -18).. and guess what, we made a snow man..
I know it sounds really silly.. especially when everyone was trying to stay indoors and keep warm, kids and I made a snow man.
I always wanted to make a snow man..but never got around to do it.. So this time I was determined..
I had no buttons for the eyes, so we used the base of tea light candles as eyes, carrot as nose and a leaf as mouth.
And while I was creating my master piece..something extremely beautiful happend.. My oldest daughter gave me a cold frozen kiss on my cheeks and told me
"You are the craziest, sweetest mama in the whole wide world"
So here is to the craziest mama, who made a snow man at -8 degrees!
