Xander and Mary started at 9 am or so. Two little snow angels, they lay on their backs and compacted the snow in a large circle. Using our weeding buckets from the side of the house they filled and packed and carefully created the base of an igloo.
Amazingly, Mary is the only one who worked from start to finish. She did go in several times however to change out her sopping wet snow pants and mittens. Shh, don’t tell anyone you saw Mary wearing boy pants.
Victory! As Stefan said on seeing photos, “It’s the igloo I always dreamed of building.” We’ll build another one and have wars or maybe tea parties. You never know.
Come on over. We have a tarp on the floor, buckets for chairs and hot chocolate any time.

That is so awesome! BTW, I spied Ben on page 19 on the conference Ensign. He looks incredibly joyful. Glad all of the Lehnardts are doing well!

There is nothing quite like kids and snow. We didn’t have nearly that much, but they still had some fun here and we still have a few remnants of the fun.
That is one serious igloo. I love it.

Oh glorious snow day!! Your video is delightful (so happy you’re in it!) And that igloo is absolutely amazing. Has it melted much yet? Can’t wait to see you. xo

I don’t think there is a family around that has more fun living life and playing in the snow than you! I adored the video so much! You’re getting so good at those you know…lessons please!
