A stick garden in the snow

Sunday night brought a heavy spring snow that added a foot of fresh snow to our already piled yard. The heavy snow also took a toll on the trees and brought down lots of branches and smaller sticks as well. Monday was a snow day from school for the boy but the sun came out and made for great playtime out in the snow. The girl was delighted as she loves sticks and the snow cover has made it very hard to find sticks on our walks. The girl began picking up fallen sticks and planting them in the snow with just a little help from me. Here she is, quite pleased with her completed stick garden.
