Friday, January 22, 2010. Winter came down to our home one night Quietly pirouetting in on silvery-toed slippers of snow, And we, we were children once again. Bill Morgan, Jr. A few pics of him in his snowsuit-he wore it last year and it was big, so we thought we would try it on him again- it's a little snug with his hands and feet tucked up in it, but it will fit this winter with his boots and mittens on.we just think he's so cute in it! Thanks again, Aunt Phyllis! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
