It didn't pack well for snowballs or snowmen so we picked up chunks and were throwing them at each other.
We had to make it a rule that we threw it at each others backs or we had to be prepared to catch it so you didn't have the breath knocked out of you.
Tanner was convinced that it was a big snowcone so he just ate it.
Micheal and Clayton realized that if you threw a snowblock and someone tried to block it, the icy block would explode all over the victim.
I happened to be the victim once, and boy was that a cold awakening, like having someone throw snow right in your face. It was fun though! Especially when I got them back:)!
Then Saturday night it got down to 13 degrees and all the roads were a solid sheet of ice so the Stake cancelled church to protect us. So we took the opportunity to make a big pot of Gumbo and then finished it off with some King Cake. That was the perfect meal for a cold day in the snow.

That snow looks so fun. So, what is King Cake? Looks yummy, but I have never heard of it before.
how fun is that??!! love all the pictures!!
King cake is a mardi gras treat. It is a lot like a big cinnamon roll but you fill it with a yummy cream cheese filling. I was introduced to it when we lived in Baton Rouge. I don't know everything about why they make it but it tastes good so we make it.
