I really wish I enjoyed the winter more, but it's a struggle for me. I think the distaste really comes from putting hats, gloves, coats, boots, and scarves on 3 1/2 children who insist they want to play in the snow, but then come in and out every 5 min, where the above mentioned clothing is removed and put back on, till I finally force them to stay in. It's a chore, this winter thing.
New Years Day I finally decided we were all going to go out and enjoy this season a little bit more. With ski's and sleds packed in the van, we headed to a local park and hit the slope. We had a great time, there was minimal crying, which makes everyday great!
