In the middle of the day, when the sun is shining so brightly, it’s sort of hard to believe that winter is here already. And then it gets dark around 5:00pm and it’s freezing and grey the next day, so yes…
Winter has most certainly arrived. And so it ‘tis the time for our annual winter quest! The shorter days can rather chaff with busy family schedules, but it is well worth it when the snow season kicks off full blast. (づ｡◕‿‿◕｡)づ ❄*:･ﾟ
In case you haven’t already guessed, our family is quite keen on our snow sports ~ the Mister and I are both obsessive snowboarders. It’s actually quite romantic.
You see, when we first met up, we didn’t know each other all that well. We used to be friends, but had lost touch with each other for many years. We accidentally met up again through a mutual friend and hung out a bit, but that was it. Then as winter approached, I had mentioned that I really wanted to learn snowboarding. {At this stage I hadn’t realized that the Mister was such a keen boarder, but I soon found that out!}
Anyways, a long story short, he offered to teach me how to ride, and I accepted. We went down to Jindabyne for a three day weekend on the slopes. By dint of extremely stubborn determination to not let the Mister see me fail {despite an overly tender posterior from spending most of my time on my derriere} I managed to catch on to the basics whilst getting well and truly bitten with the powder bug.
That was the beginnings of a very sweet relationship and three months later he was asking me to marry him! And we all know how that turned out... (~ ヮ •) Now the Mister and I generally go every year, as we both thoroughly enjoy the snow that brought us together.
。⁎ ﾟ･:*❄*:･ﾟ⁎ 。♡~ (｡◕‿◕｡)
So I eagerly await the advent of this year’s snow season, and hold my breath until we get that first big dump so we can hit the slopes. It’s going to be epic! Do you enjoy snow sports? Or do you prefer to admire the white stuff from a distance?
