Winter fun!

So Friday night there was a massive snow storm, it took me over an hour and a half to get home in the van pool. Thank god I didn't have to drive in it that long only from the carpool lot to my home but even then it was scary. Anyway, I get in the house to find the bf playing playstation as per usual hee hee and to my surprise he wanted to know if I wanted to go for a walk in the storm, of course I did! I love walking in the snow, its sooo much fun! Anyway we get all bundled up in our winter garb and head out the door. But as soon as we got to the bottom of our death trap of stairs (lots of stairs always icy) the bf jumped into the snow and started to make a snow ball, my mind goes right to snowball fight! I need to defend myself! So I jumped right into the snow and started to make my own ammo of snowballs but instead of receiving the cold and icy blow from behind that I was expecting I see the bf started to push his snowball through the snow. We were in the process of making a snowman! YAY! I, of course, had to prove that I was the best at making the biggest snowman bottom in the fastest time and I did. We ended up making the hugest snowman ever, it was at least six feet tall, I got some branches from one of the trees that had fallen over this year in the yard while the bf made the facial features on our monstrosity made of snow and dead leaves hahaha. It turned out amazing, pictures were taken, certain anatomically correct elements were added to the snowman and then taken off again for fear of offending others but not till after pictures were taken of course. Nevertheless our snowman was too heavy and it fell forward through the night, it was a blast though!


The next day we walked across the snow covered road to purchase our Christmas tree. Of course the tree was covered in icy snow so we walked it back home and set it out on our front deck to melt in the sun. The bf got antsy and wanted to get it in the house and set up but once we did it started to rain inside! The tree was melting like mad, we had to set out newspaper underneath it just to catch all the water it was nuts! Wouldn't you know just when you think you're done cleaning up a mess another one occurs. Our tree fell over! The stand we had for it was a hand me down from the bfs grandparents and it was broken obviously since the tree fell over. So I head down to our local hardware store and pick out the heaviest metal tree holder they had, upon getting it back home we had to assemble the stand and then set the tree up all over again. No rain this time haha. We finally had our tree in and got our decorations up and we were good to go it was great!
