You’ll never look at snow the same way after watching a centenarian frolic in a winter wonderland.

Armand Foisy and his mother, Albina, were driving when it began to snow in Lillooet, Canada. After Foisy pulls over to take in the beautiful scenery, Albina, at 101 years old, jumps out of the car and begins playing in it.

The two break into giggles as the incredibly spry woman starts to make a snowball and then misses the sign she aimed for.

“It’s kind of nice to play in the snow,” she remarks.

Foisy posted the video on Facebook, with the caption, “Here’s proof that if you find pure joy in the simple things you can live 100 years.”

The delightful video has been viewed more than 7.9 million times since being posted to Facebook on Nov. 18.

While Foisy said the video was intended for family and friends, he and his mother are delighted that the video has gone viral. Foisy told the CBC that the video captures his mother's personality perfectly, referring to her as a joyous person who doesn't view her age as a detriment.
