Stone Circle Its starting to look a lot like christmas

Skáld did not fret when his friend wasn't able to answer him. It was obvious, though that he was trying! He began kicking some snow into the pile, and the curly-coated boy did as well, quietly thinking to himself. He wondered if Ike might would want to teach him some words in English, so that they could share the responsibility of learning languages. But for right now, the focus was on kicking snow at the pile. 

It got a bit tougher as it went on. Having pulled the snow from the area immediately around the pile, he now had to rove outwards a bit, and kick the snow back a bit harder in order to fling it at the pile. It was fun though- he laughed and smiled as the sprays of snow were sent behind him, occasionally in Ike's direction as well.
