Winter Wonderfuls: Ventage Tuesday


You may have come to the realization that I am a freak.  If you haven't, this post may be the one that seals the deal for you.  

I.
Love.
Winter.

Yep.  Love it.  It may be the Norwegian Viking blood in my veins.  It may be a Sconnie girl thing.  May just be that I hate being hot.  Whatever the reason - I love December through March.  

Living in the land of the frozen tundra, snow can come as early as October and stay around as late as April.  Good times.  Here are my top five things about winter:




1)  Stocking Hats.  Love them.  We own about 10 million stocking caps - these may have been my favorite ever in the collection though.  

Packer hats, Brewer hats, pink hats that sparkle, Skull and cross bones hats, camouflage hats, Bucky hats, cute black hipster hats, got them.  love them.  Ask Barb, I am always scouting for new hats.  

2) Kids bundled up in snow gear.

This picture is old but I love it.  We always put the kids to work shoveling and although getting them all in the gear is annoying, they look so cute bundled up.  Always makes me smile to see kids going nuts in the snow.

3)  Birthdays.  December and January are big birthday months in my life, Barb, Dorothy, my dad, Mike, my mom and Katrina all celebrate birthdays.  Never let an opportunity to celebrate go to waste!  

4)  Ice Skating.  I grew up in a hockey town.  I have been skating since I was about 4.  Unfortunately, I have not yet been able to teach my own kids... must remedy that pronto.

5)  hot drinks - Some people love hot chocolate.  I love Tom and Jerrys.  :)  What is not to love, booze and creamy goodness.  Yum.  

Whats not to love people?
