Winter Fun and Frolic Challenge by Susan Tutt

When I moved to Canada from California, 17 years ago, I really had no idea what winter was all about! I have to admit I wasn't impressed with -20 degree weather, but over the years I have learned to tollerate the winter. Since having kids I have experienced the fun side of winter, sledding, ice hockey, snowball fights and building snowmen, but drinking hot chocolate is still the best part of winter for me! This weeks challenge is winter fun and frolic. I have created two layouts that capture our winter fun.
Last winter we discovered a frozen pond in our neighborhood that was cleared for skating and hockey! My kids were thrilled, especially my hockey crazed son.

One of our winter traditions is to go sledding. I love capturing the exhilarated faces of my kids as they come down the snow hill.

It snowed again last night in Calgary, so we will be off sledding this weekend. Yay for hot chocolate!! Have a great weekend and remember to submit your challenge layout I would love to see your winter fun!
