My sister says my snowman looks like a rabbi



I made my first ever snowman this afternoon with Luca. His name is Frederick.
When I was a little kid, I wouldn't build actual things. I remember making giant mounds of snow and then sledding, rolling, or jumping down. Maybe I'd fashion a hut or igloo of some kind, but never a snowman. 
I couldn't really do my best work with Frederick because the snow was so fine and powdery. Luckily, some of what I shoveled earlier this morning had hardened into chunks, so I used them as base pieces (for the three sections) and then filled in spots with handfulls of stubborn powder. Hopefully things will harden up over night so I can give this another go.

(Having Frederick hold the candy cane - as an actual cane - was Luca's idea. Frederick's old.)
