April Showers...

Snow showers that is! Well, April (snow) showers bring snowmen!! It snowed like crazy in Ft. Wayne yesterday. It was actually really pretty, but crazy! We got more snow here yesterday than we had at Christmas....
Here's Jenna outside w/her coat unzipped:

Tom and Mackenzie took the opportunity to build a snowman:


Somehow, the snowman instead of falling over, ended up leaning way over to the side after a few hours. We've never seen anything like it!

I'm glad to say that we had a nice sunny day today, so the snow has already melted away, except for a tiny bit of the snowman. But, let me share just a funny little note about yesterday's fun in the snow. Tom was so amazed at how much snow we were getting that he wanted to get pictures of the girls outside, so he just hollered for them to leave whatever they were doing & "come outside to see the snow!" Well, neither of the girls had socks, shoes, or coats on, and he was going to let them go outside like that! What was he thinking?? Luckily, I stopped them just in time & made them get socks, shoes & coats on before going out. They still didn't have hats or gloves on, and Tom let them lay in the snow & make angels. Needless to say, Jenna came in freezing cold about 5 minutes later, wrapped her hands in a warm sweatshirt & fell asleep on the couch. Mackenzie is a die hard in the snow, so she lasted longer, but she was freezing when she came in as well.
