These two boys had a Father/Son adventure in the snow today! Our first winter in Germany and we’ve already got tons of snow perfect for building snowmen and sledding.
Their first snowman was kinda small, but still worthy of a big hug.
If you were wondering – yes, that’s a cigar in the snowman’s mouth.
Snowman #2 was a success!
The sled we bought locally worked really well, but was lacking in the steering department. It was still nicer than any sled I had as a kid! I’m pretty sure we used to use those plastic discs and did more rolling/falling off than sledding…
It was a successful winter adventure in the snow. Mostly because there were no meltdowns from snow pants or gloves being uncomfortable, or the snow being too cold. And I got to curl up on the couch with my coffee and do some travel research for our next adventure!

How fun! We had a little bit of snow here in Sweden, but it was quite warm yesterday and it all melted. I’m hoping we get a storm too- the cold of winter just isn’t worth it without the snow!
Jamie says
The cold is definitely better with some pretty snow to look at!
Cynthia says
So sweet! I was just looking longingly at the snow the other day, wishing I could make a snowman. And now that I’ve procrastinated, our snow’s began melting with the higher temps. Oh well- new year ;)
Jamie says
Well maybe you will get more snow soon! It seems like we are going to get a lot of snow this winter – should be fun!

Looks like you have a happy Junge und Mann. Nice Schnee. We have none. 27 degrees but brilliant blue skies. Rodeln gehen or schlitten fahren….I remember those German sleds…no foot steering like our old sleds here. Viel Spaß!
Jamie says
27 degrees and blue skies! Sounds like a pretty winter for Seattle :)

Congrats on a successful snow day! That pic of him hugging the snowman is so, so precious. :D
Jamie says
Thanks! I guess he said he was so proud of him and he loved him, ha!

Very cute! Awesome snow man. This was my first year not seeing any snow.
Jamie says
Thanks Kristin! Winter without snow isn’t so bad, but we have sure enjoyed the winter wonderland.

Your son hugging the snowman <3 how beautiful that is! We have had hardly any snow so far this year :( I shouldn't complain though as I was sick of it last year!
Jamie says
I know – melted my heart :) Well the photo, I wasn’t there. Well all our snow is gone now, so we will see how long that lasts!
