What a lovely winter day! Piles of snow. White world. Finally! We spent half a day on our yard building an igloo. Hard work it was. I can feel my back and arms. Today is this perfect kind of snow, wet and sticky. It's about 1C above zero and no wind. Perfect condition for outdoor play. We came home all wet (but not inside, the good winter outdoor clothes stayed almost dry even after three hours of playing in wet snow) and exhausted, but with happy kids and ourselves too. This is what we have built. It still lacks the proper roof, but this is the hardest part, maybe later, or maybe there will come some other dedicated fathers with their hungry for snow-home kiddos and will cooperate with us. Hopefully the weather will stay like that and the temperatures will drop below zero.
