Just for fun

I love snowmen. I started collecting them when I was teaching school, and got several as Christmas gifts. Now I leave them out all through January, just because they make me smile. (Seriously--I smiled just watching the pictures upload!) Here are some of the smiles you can find tucked around my house right now:

On our school calendar

And today, oddly enough, on Rebecca's school work! (Ignore the background mess, please.)

Most of my collection

My newest additions--they're so adorable!

Rebecca made this guy (in the back) in Sunday School last year. He's one of my faves.

Rebecca made this card, too, in Sunday School this year.

One of Jessica's best friends in Idaho made this and sent it to her a couple of years ago.

Oops! That's not a snowman, that's our fluffy white cat! She sometimes makes me smile, too, but I'm still against inside pets!!

We even have snowmen on our toothbrush holder in the girls' bathroom.

This is the little one that gave me this idea--it's a wallflower, and it's the same pink as in their bathroom. I have a hard time resisting things I find that match their shower curtain! (And I don't know why my new camera takes yellow pictures sometimes. It bugs me.)

Gotta love Christmas clearance! (Look at that dweeb in the background. I told you they make me smile.)

And last, but definitely not least, this melted snowman made by Mikayla in kindergarten greets you as you come in our carport/kitchen door. I just love this one!!
