Noah and Adam have been working on "Frosty" for several days now-packing the snow, watering it so it would hold, etc. They finished building him today and topped him off with a proper hat that Noah picked out from the Kara Chocolates store. It was filled with yummy peanut butter snowman and chocolate marshmallow oreo cookies. We finished the cookies just in time for "Frosty" to be finished-ready and waiting to come to life.

We played in the sand, played tennis, soccer, rollerbladed, and adorned ourselves with clover. You have to look closely but Glenn and Samantha are both sporting clovers tucked behind their ears. Boy, do I miss them.
