Pookie & Fig

I spent a good part of yesterday shoveling snow. No, we hadn't had any new snow to shovel, rather I was shoveling old snow from off the lawn and into a bucket. I was doing this because my husband and I were making a snow castle for the girls.

Originally we had planned on a simple igloo, but somehow those large snowy bricks we were making just begged to be a part of something more grandiose--a castle was just the thing!

And what an amazing castle it is turning out to be! Work continued on the castle today and it is now several bricks high and has a lovely arched doorway (all thanks to my husband). I can't wait untill tomorrow so we can work more on it. Even incomplete though, the girls love their new, white, snowy, luxiourious, winter home!
