Snow!!

Haha...we had a snowstorm yesterday and it kept snowing today, giving us a thick blanket of white fluff. In the evening I finally could resist no longer and went out to play in the snow. It's weird, somehow whenever I see a clean, thick and crunchy patch of snow I just want to jump in it and make my mark. I just love making crunches in the snow.

So I went to the park down the street, and started to build a snowman in the middle of the field. Only the snow was too fluffy, not the sticky kind, as I later learned, so it's not my fault if I can't build one today. I was in the middle of piling up snow, when I heard a child say "Can we help her?" Before I knew it two kids, one little girl and one little boy, came running towards me and asked me if they could help me. Of course I said "Yes Please Do!" I'm always ready to have playmates. So the three of us started concentrating on building up the snow mountain, which they decided what it should be. Then Kyle, the boy, suggested it should be a snow volcano, which of course is much more cool. Once it was high enough, Kyle went and stuck his fist into the tippy top, making a hole for the lava. After Kyle and Alexia and me piled up more snow and decided it was big enough, we counted "1,2,3!" and we all splashed into the mound of fluff, the beautiful snow volcano promptly destroyed.
Kyle then enticed me into a game of tag, where I was the wolf and he a snow fox. The wolf has to catch fox, which it did much to the fox's surprise, as he never anticipated that the wolf could run so fast in the snow. All the while Alexia diligently continued to work on that mountain of snow, smoothing it out nicely. Huffing and puffing, the wolf decided to help Alexia and the fox turned his attention to the playground.
A bit later me and Alexia decided to make a snow bed. We finally did, and I even made a snow pillow for her, which scattered into pieces the moment her head touched it. She was so cute. She even made a hole in the snow bed for her bum. While she was lying down, trying out her new bed, I lay down too and made my first snow angel, which I must say was quite impressive.
After a while their grandpa decided it was time to go home and order pizza, and we went our own way. I had only walked a few steps when I saw Kyle running towards me, his arms wide open, and thrust himself into me for a hug. Isn't that the sweetest? Man I love those kids already, and we've only known each other for like, an hour.
