Sock Snowmen!

I was searching for some sort of way to thank my friends who helped Mom and me so much during those last  years, and I think I hit it out of the park with Sock Snowmen.

John and I made basic sock snowmen and dressed them in Mom's fuzzy socks as sweaters. That's Bobbi's below looking in a mirror:
