May

The best packing snow we got this year came on May 1st.  We finally got to build a big, decent snowman.

And since it wasn't too cold, the boys didn't mind spending an extended time outside to do it

Robin made a good chunk of Frosty's head all by himself

After completing the snowman, we proceeded to make another snowball, to see just how big we could get it.

Dean came out to help us

The ball was getting very hard to push.  Technically, we could've made it bigger, but the boys were finally getting cold and tired.

Frosty had slumped over quite a bit by late the next morning.  I was amazed that he stayed up at all, considering this angle.  He fell over by the afternoon.  And because it was so warm, all the snow but Frosty and the snowball melted by early afternoon, too.

We brought in a little of the remaining snow for Liam to play with.  He insisted on having his napkin with him.

Yee-haw!  Here's the cowboy riding his Grandpa steed!

Look at that cutie!

The boys getting a wagon ride at their Grandparents old house, as we all helped pull down a dead tree (and celebrated by birthday while we were at it.)

Robin managed to commandeer the camera toward the end of the day, and took some portraits of the family

And that brings us to Mother's Day, when the non-moms cooked for the moms!

Here are the mamas

Okay, that's probably enough.  May will have to be two installments, because I've still got a lot of pictures.  Stay tuned for next time!
