I have a cousin that grew up in northern Florida. They always came to visit in the summers about every 5 yrs or so, as my Aunt was from FL and didn\'t like the Indiana weather at all. When cousin Charles was a teenager, my Uncle made the decision to come for Thanksgiving at the family farm. They were to stay for a week, and 2 days before they left, it snowed. Cousin acted like a 5 yr old, was the 1st time he\'d experienced snow, so we built him a fort, had a snowball fight and Gma mixed up a huge tub of snow ice cream. He did not want to go home at all, which made quite a ruckus between him and Auntie... Every Thanksgiving after that, he would always call Gma and ask if it was snowing.. lol
The last time I was IN, it was bitter cold and the wind had blown drifts up against the backdoor. Too cold to take Bella outside, so I scooped up some snow and showed her how to make a snowball. Of course she had to run through the house with it, showing Mommy what she had.. drip, drip ,drip.. all over the floors before she shooed her back into the kitchen. Then she had to make one for Daddy when he got home. The weather warmed up some after I left, so the next afternoon she and Daddy got to make a snowman. Mommy was napping on the couch and Bella scooted up beside her, and whispered into her ear \"do you want to build a snowman?\".. lol
