Snowman

This is the fluffy kind of snow that's too hard to make a snowman. Not for Nanny, she found a way.

Sissy loved her...

Frozen meatball eyes, a celery nose and a mouth made out of almonds. Perfect.

Sissy loved the snow. She climbed all over the place.

Junie was a little nervous after he went down really fast with Scott.

Cousin Love!

What trip to Nanny's house wouldn't be complete without frosting cookies.

More loving cousins at the ID.

Then they put on a show for us.

They couldn't stop cracking up.

Surprise!

We told everyone we were going to California but we were really going to Iowa to surprise our family and play in the snow.
We got about an hour and a half outside of Albuquerque when we came upon a HUGE snow storm. We turned around and drove (10mph) back to Albuquerque to spend the night at a Marriott.

We really thought we were going back home but after listening to the weather reports we decided to take off and go the northern route.
We woke the kids and took off for Colorado, Nebraska and then IOWA!!

Back in the car...

Notice the snow in the background...

Scott Drove....

and drove...

and drove...

and drove...

My dad ran outside to meet us. After 20 straight hours in the car.

And 3:30am we arrived and Amelia woke Nanny singing Rudolph...

At first she was scared.

Then she started liking it.

It's been snow and fun ever since...
