Frosty

Uploaded: December 21, 2008

Description

Photo taken after my husband help me build a snowman. Poor Frosty is no longer with us as after we built him the temperatures hit an all time high and he melted. The Doves loved to sit on his head. We have never had so many doves, 20 at a time. More snow in the forecast so hopefully we can build another Frosty.

Roxanne- Sorry to hear your snowman melted as you did such a fantastic job with him. I just love the red scarf, the red nose, and the pipe, topped off with his tophat. Perfectly timed with the morning dove sitting on his head. One good thing is I am sure there will more snow to build another one. We have alot of morning doves down here to and are a everyday visitor to us. I love their call.
Happy Holidays to you and your family. #6937571

This is too cute Roxanne. Too bad he didn't last. I can't believe how cold it gets there. I thought Northern Michigan was bad. Here in Atlanta we had rain for Xmas. #6972030
