I Heart the Winter

With all this complaining about winter on the news and internet, I can't help but smile. Yes, I agree that long commutes and the extreme cold can be a battle, however I feel blessed to be able to experience all of the seasons.
Everyone needs to embrace the change and remember that snowfall is only temporary. Here are some reasons why I love winter:

Various colors and patterns of scarves, gloves, and fuzzy hats
Hot chocolate!
Looking outside of my window and admiring the calm and peaceful view
A fireplace and a book make the perfect couple
Wardrobe change-boots, heavy knit sweaters, and stylish peacoats
Christmas and Valentines Day-the sweetest holidays
Staying in more and putting my social calendar on hiatus
A plush, comfy throw while watching a movie
Eating comfort foods to satisfy and warm the belly
Going to games and watching the triple B's; Bulls, Blackhawks, and Bears.

What do you love about the winter?

  3. I'm glad you can find the positivity in winter! I still love spring and summer best and occasionally fall. The only joy I have when it snows is watching Alaina get excited to play in it. Other than that, I can really do without winter!!
