Blog 2: The Joy of Cold Weather 280 Words

   I personally like cold weather. Cold weather means it is winter time. Usually I can’t wait for summer at the end of winter because I’m tired of being cold, but at the end of summer I am ready for winter because I’m tired of being hot. I get excited the first time it snow because I love snow. Snow is fun because it gets you out of school sometimes and you can have snowball fights and go sledding or snowmobiling. I remember when it snowed and the power would go out for days and we had to use a kerosene heater. I actually liked not having power because I didn’t have to stay in and watch TV, I could go outside and roll around in the snow. When it starts getting cold my family starts cooking more soup than usually. We usually have baked potato soup or chili. We usually have soup because sometimes we are sick or we need warmed up and soup helps that. I remember when I was little and I used we used to have huge snowball fights throughout town. I also like ice. I like sliding around and being weightless. I like to run real fast then jump on the ice and slide ten yards. Falling down is the bad part of ice though. I bruised my hip up once because I fell so hard on ice. I have also twisted up my wrist and jammed up most of my fingers falling on ice but its fine because I was having fun. I also like winter because of Christmas. I like having a whole bunch of Christmas parties with the family. Present aren’t bad either.
