More pictures from our first snowball fight of the season. Of course the season here is pretty scarce, depending on if we get snow again. Lucky for us, we will get our winter fill with nearly a month in Saskatchewan, Canada. We leave in a little more than a week! Incredible to think that is possible. I'm hoping it will be stellar weather like last year. Cold enough for snow to stay, but just barely. Do you see Ivan's snowball near Jaime's head in the first picture! What an arm. Isabelle and Jaime came up with the genius idea of first pumeling our melting snowball to its blustery end, then using the remaining snow as firepower. They even sculpted little snowmen on the light post. It was very wet snow.

Ivan and Dominique figured out the concept of snowball fighting very quickly. One could attribute this to the fact that they are part Canadian, or that children of ages 1 and 3 have a natural penchant for throwing things. They were especially excited by the fact that this game included throwing things at people- not generally encouraged with other thrown objects.


What's your favorite thing to do in the snow?
