Six-year-old Kevin Johnson and his cousins built a 7-foot-tall snowman across the street from Harnew Elementary School on Wednesday.

The tiny, Harnew kindergartner got some help from big cousins Nick Carollo, 23, and Nick's brother and sister-in-law, Sam, 24, and Sandy, 27.

Nick and Sam reportedly lifted the giant's head on to his body, which weighed close to a couple hundred pounds. (Much thanks to June Quigley who sent us the awesome photo!)
