Colorado Road Trip: Snow!

I arrived in Denver the same day as Tori and the kids, although I took the easy way out and traveled by plane (flying without children is so fun!).  We got in on a Friday night and it snowed most of Saturday, which was pretty exciting for our kids, and Zadie most of all.  They've definitely seen snow before, but I don't think they've actually seen it in verb form.  Zadie kept running around screaming like it was the most exciting thing in the world, while her Denver cousins just kind of chuckled at her like she was crazy (more on that later).

Anyway, Zadie was super excited about the miniature snowman she made (see below).  Other snow activities included sledding, building a fort, and throwing snowballs.

She was pretty proud of this creation.  Don't ask me where she found those perfect little glasses!
This was after most of the snow had already melted, but how cool is it that you can see all these elk bugling right outside the guest room window at my uncle's house?!  We city folk were quite impressed.
