Aliens and Snow


Aliens are new to snow. They love it. They are fascinated by it. They love how the snow topples off cars and makes cool patterns of water on the windows. They love to watch it fall. They love to wake up in the morning and check to see if it snowed. They are always dying to get out in the snow. Its been quite entertaining to watch the alien relationship with snow...extreme love to extreme hate..."When is going to snow again?" to "When will it STOP"?. All-in-all, its mostly still a novelty and many discoveries are being made. So far, aliens do love snow.

They think all snow "tasks" are fun - they fight over who gets to clean off my cars...Nice!

They think that shoveling is good fun - they even want to shovel the walks of the vacant house next door...

They sure do think its a great idea to launch snow at grown ups, until...

The littlest alien realizes cold can be painful...

Even the strongest alien - has a breaking point with the cold - and can give up

The after-snow ritual: Blanket-sharing snuggle

Oh seriously cute. I'm impressed at how well-equipped for snow they all are, with gloves and all! Where is the kid screaming,"that's my hat!, I can't get my glove on!"

I think I have the same relationship with snow as the aliens, seeing as how we are all from the same home planet. Although, I will say, I have more dislike for the snow, rather than love for it at this point.

Let it snow! How fun you get to see the alien's first time in the snow. What fun. I like that you are teaching them early that part of the fun of snow is shoveling it... keep it going Auntie!
