Here's my penguin with his little snowman, built on Sunday night. Didn't he do well. Have you made one this winter?

My three year old and I made a snow baby the other day. We have not had enough yet this winter to make big ones. We will be soon though... I love being outside in the winter!

That's even more special that you have someone to share it with.

I know, it really brings out the kid in me! Before having kids I would go out and play in the snow and feel just a little weird because I am a "grownup"... now, I just play and be happy!!! There is nothing like bundeling up, heading outside, playing for hours then returning to a nice cup of hot cocoa!!!!

I think I've probably reached the stage where a) people expect me to behave in a slightly odd way (they just put it down to senile eccentricity) b) I dont give a monkey's what they think anyway ... so,I am perfectly ok to make snowmen all by myself

I'd like to pull out of winter for the next 5 or 6 days to make getting out and about easier... it can come back when I can stay home and enjoy it!

Me and my youngest sons did try to make a snowman when it first snowed but we found that the snow was too fluffy and it would not stick together so penguin done very well lol So we had a snowball fight instead. As it looks like that we might get some more snow we will probably try again sometime. Although the appeal of the snow is starting to wear off now

Yes, its fun to start with but, when your car starts sliding about and everything gets splashed with dirty slush it starts to lose ita appeal doesn't it?

Unfortunately I live in the Southern Hemisphere so it's summer and really hot during Christmas time but I wish it did snow. Snow is so awesome!

We had that nice snow that crunches and squeaks under your feet as you walk - perfect for snowmen... we didnt have a great deal though.

I haven't made a snowman since I was a child. I used to love doing it when I was a kid and even did a few with my youngest two brothers. These days the cold gets to me too much but I'd love to watch one being made. [b]~~AT PEACE WITHIN~~ **STANDING STRONG IN MY BELIEFS**[/b]

Unfortunately we have not had enough snow to build a snowman. It melted almost as soon as it hit the ground. I guess we could build mud men, huh?*L*
