A Christmas Memory: Day Nine - Snowmen

What's more fun during the holidays (once you get past the whole Santa and present thing) than playing in the snow? Maybe not as an adult (though, as an adult, I will admit I HAVE had some pretty good snow time) but as a child it is DEFINATELY on the list of holiday favourites! When I was a kid we were lucky enough that we lived in some places with some really great snowfall. In mom and dad's photo albums at home there are pictures of us with some AMAZING snowmen that we built in New Jersey, in Ohio (sometimes we would get 10 inches of snow) and in Switzerland.

The most fun, though, was building snowmen with my baby brother. He was the most adorable child and so full of happiness and excitement. The four Mosher kids loved to go outside and play in the snow, making angels, having snowfights, making forts and, of course, making snowmen. These were no ordinary snowmen, though. Please note the photos above... Interesting hats, scarves, sunglasses, suspenders... one is even holding a basket in one hand and a sled in the other.

Now when is the last time YOU had a snowman that was that detailed?

Boy it was fun.
