Snow Play

Last night it snowed about six inches.  However, freezing rain then fell on top of the snow, making a hard crust on top of the heavy, slushy snow.  There was enough snow to play in.....
 .....but the consistency of last night's snow made it nearly impossible to make a snowman.  The girls worked and worked on a snowman, but they could only manage to build a short one.
 I helped the girls find a good place to sled in our backyard.  There are a couple of gentle slopes in our backyard, but we needed to find one that wouldn't let the girls slide onto the creek.
 They both went sledding for about ten minutes, which is when they had worn a watery, slushy trench.  And Julia promptly landed in a puddle of cold slush, getting soaking wet.  That's when Julia called it quits, and Evelyn followed suit.
