My kids, husband, and I made snow sculptures this past winter. We had a blast. My husband made a fisherman catching a marlin, my son made a sea turtle, and my daughter gave her snowman personality. It was so much fun and hope we get to do it again next winter.
I was wondering how many people enjoyed the snow and what all they did. Feel free to add your favorite snow pictures and give details. I added one of my favorites to this topic and have more in my pictures. can't wait to see and hear all the winter fun stories.

we didn't really go out that much this winter. we have been in oklahoma the past few years and then to come back here with this cold and snow we had a hard time getting used to it. it seemed that every time we got enough snow to do anything with one of the kids would be sick and i hated to take them out in it.
we did go out a couple times and played but just mainly sledding. my 3 year old had never been in the snow or gone sledding so he really enjoyed that. my one year old year had a hard time walking and would get mad and just cry so we would end up coming in and the boys would dig in the snow to make tracks for the snow. hopefully next year will be better.

awe I hate when the little ones are sick. I bet the sledding was so much fun for your 3 yr old. I bet next year will be more fun for both of them. I personally hate the cold and was not going to get out in it. I thought this will be the last snow of winter and I better at least try to give my kids some memories with mom in the snow. I really enjoyed it. I will definitely be playing in the snow more often. You have a good sledding hill near you? Our hills aren't to good for sledding, drop off into a hollow or a fence. Hope next year is more fun for you all.

we do have hills around us,our yard is all hill. i hate it cuz we have no flat. he did have a blast its just hard cuz we have the road at the bottom. we have hill drive way more hill then more drive way then a really big hill and the road. i went down first to make a path and thought i would stop when i got to the drive way but nope i kept on going. thank goodness i tried it first cuz i had a hard time stpping my self so i know the kids wouldn't have been able to. after that we had to stand at the botom to stop them. this summer gonna be fun with the balls.

It sounds like you got a great sledding hill all but the stopping part. Brakes are a good thing lol. I am more like you I like it warm. Dirt and warm water are the best things to play in.

Thank you so much. We will probably again make more this winter. We had so much fun last winter making snow sculptures we won't be able to pass up the opportunity.
