Ever since Lily arrived at Grammy's house she had been begging to go and make Olaf. She was dying to play in the snow. However, once we arrived, Lily came down with a terrible cold and a fever. She was so lethargic I was afraid she'd wouldn't get better in time to play in the snow. Once snow falls it becomes harder to mould and play with. Luckily, once her fever let up - we took advantage of a new snowfall to go out and let her play to her heart's content. She was in heaven and was so happy to engage in building her very own Olaf!
She took this process very seriously...
Preparation and rolling the body.
Admiring Olaf's features.
Putting on some touch-ups.
Posing with her new friend.
And of course, Olaf needed a family to join him!
After Olaf had a family, Lily still wanted to play in the snow. So My mom helped show her how to make snow angels.
After a couple tries, she got the hang of it. But, poor Lily, Badger kept on ruining her snow angels, so she insisted on making more. I don't know what's so enticing to small children about playing in the snow, but they could be out there for hours with just their imaginations! Hopefully this isn't our last time playing in the snow this Winter season. Lily was in heaven and truly felt like she was Queen Elsa out in the snow.
