Can we build a snowman?

December 2nd | Prompt: Hot chocolates and marshmallows

Lucy giggled as she threw a snowball at her sister, then jerked her arms up in protection as Peter threw one in her direction. Peter laughed when it hit her in the arm, only to have one hit him right back.

When Lucy had woken up that morning, she had seen the snow through her bedroom window, and had wanted to play in it for the day since it had been the first snow of the season. So the Kings and Queens had taken the day off to enjoy the glistening winter wonderland.

Lucy bent down, scooped up some snow, formed it into a ball, and threw it at Edmund's chest. He let out a small laugh and smiled as he dusted of his coat. He hadn't wanted to go out, since winter was hard for him because of the memories from the Witch, but he forced himself to for Lucy. And to his surprise, he was actually enjoying himself a little.

Lucy's face lit up when a thought came into her head. "Can we build a snowman?"

Peter, Susan, and Edmund all nodded, smiling, and they began working. Edmund and Lucy gathered a couple of sticks for the arms, and a few small, round stones for the mouth, while Peter and Susan molded the bottom of the snowman.

Once the snowman was formed, Edmund took out two buttons he found in one of his coat pockets, and placed them on the top as eyes. Lucy reached down hand grabbed the two sticks, then stuck them on the sides. Susan placed the stones below them in a neat semicircle.

It still looks bare, Lucy thought. She gasped and then beamed up at the snowman after she took her red scarf off an wrapped it around its neck.

After a while of making snow angels, Peter said, "It's getting pretty cold, Lu, do you think we can head inside now?"

"Yeah, sure." she replied.

Once they got inside, they were instantly welcomed by the warmth, and began taking their coats, scarves, and mittens off. Soon, they saw Mrs Beaver waddling in the hallway, coming towards them.

"Hello, Your Majesties. Oh, you must be freezing! How about I make you all some hot chocolates with marshmallows and take them to you in the living room where you all can warm up by the fire?"

"Oooh yes, please!"
