Snow Fort

As I mentioned in my last post, we got a bit of snow on Christmas Eve. Technically it wasn’t really enough to do anything with, but if you collected it from the whole yard, there was just enough for a little Phoebe-sized snow fort (AKA cave or quinzee). I think the pictures that Jess took tell the story pretty well, so I’ll stop typing and start uploading. Enjoy!
