Frosty the midget ghetto snowman

Its my birthday in America today!

So we walked home yesterday in the snow, Its not actually that cold walking around in the snow when there is no breeze. When we got home we had to go get somthing to eat so we ended up going to Taco Time – basically a fastfood place like KFC / pIzza hut, but they sell mexican stuff like tacos and burritos. Not too bad.

When we got home it was still snowing! So i had to have a bit of a play. I made myself a little snowman!

Its only small, but its still a snowman! woohoo! making snowmen is HARD!, as i was told (and found out) its not just a matter of pushing all the snow together. What ya gotta do is squish a little ball of it together then roll it around and around the snow. It compacts itself on and after a while the ball gets bigger and bigger!

The place we are staying at also has this little slope out the front so i did a big of sliding down that – its soooo much fun. I thought about my cousins – Nathan and Grant while i was being silly in the snow – i think they would love it!

So i mucked around for a bit – melanie took some photos and some video of me which is cool. After making my snowman he fell apart so i ate him The snow is really light and fluffy – eating it is cold but it doesnt taste bad or anything.

After that i went inside and had a shower and slept. Woke up this morning and it had snowed all night! There is about 4-6 inches of snow on the ground!, If i walk on it my whole foot gets covered! The road it just ice – you can pretty much slide along it and im guessing it would be hard to drive on.

Im not sure if the snow will stay around today or not, the sun is out but the internet says the temperature here is 16 degrees Fahreinheit (spelling?). 32 degrees F = 0 degrees celcius, so its still pretty cold. Its weird for me that the sun is out and its still that cold… *shrugs*

So yeah… snow is cool!

righto – Pictures are here.
