When I think of a perfect winter day it is a day when everyone stays home because we are snowed in, so we get to spend the day together making fun memories out in the beautiful snowy weather! The snow is fluffy, deep and glistens with a silvery white sparkle when the sun hits it just right... the trees are covered as well and the air is clean and crisp! When it is snowing, the snowflakes stay on my nose and eyelashes just like the song, and I can stick my tongue out and catch them one by one as they slowly fall all around!
I remember when I was young I would take the time to catch them on my glove and look at the intricate designs up close! It's sure fun to think about and remember how blessed we really are with the beauties of this world that God has given us!
I'd have to say there is more than one activity I would enjoy doing on a beautiful winter day! Here are a few things I love doing in the winter: building a snowman, yes this is probably the most classic and fun entertainment ever! Snow angel's, snowball fights, and of coarse with my amazing hubby around you gotta have a homemade tubing hill in the back yard at least as tall as he is!! Lol... When we were dating we spent a few days and nights in his parents backyard building a tubing hill that came off his shed and circled around his whole yard! This wasn't his first tubing hill though... he'd had practice for years and years before that with his sisters! His tubing hills are legendary, and of coarse he's built a few for our kiddos in our yard since then and they are always a hit! Jeff got me hooked on skiing too! We wish we could afford to go more often but we at least try to go a couple times a year! It's so much fun spending time with my hubby zipping down the hills, or for me... "freaking out on a black Diamond thinking I'm never going to make it down alive" but yet I'm writing this post so it must not have been fatal! I'm getting better though, haha! After all that outdoor fun, who doesn't enjoy a cup of hot chocolate, with marshmallows of coarse! Yep, this is my ideal winter day which I would finish up with a good movie and a cozy blanket cuddling with my hubby and kids!
