chilled mornings and rainy evenings

cozy sweatpants and fuzzy socks

a good book and hot chocolate

a light blanket and quiet stillness.



glittery white, invisible grass

sparkling trees made of dripping glass

laughter floating through the air

three tier men made of fluffy white snow

snowball fights with those we hold close.



bonfire nights, glowing red embers

friends grinning from ear to ear as they talk and laugh, and rough house too

crispy marshmallows with melted chocolate and brittle graham crackers stuffed messily into mouths already dripping with laughter

adding fresh wood, flames dancing higher and beautiful firefly embers scatter up, flickering out into the night.



huge family dinners with turkey as the main meal

family missed a year last seen and naming all the things were thankful for

cousins come and play all day oh how long its been 

sitting around the living room with stories to be told and gossip to be shared 

all laughing and grinning like the time between visits wasn't  months long.



stunning light shows and red nosed little ones staring bright eyes at the wonder around them

picking the perfect tree to decorate with little balls of glittering joy and smiles 

gifts wrapped and stowed away in a secret place,  little ones thrilled over a man in a red suit and red nosed reign deer

early mornings and late nights,  messy living rooms paper thrown everywhere in anticipation of what it covered

big breakfast and even bigger dinners long rides home but satisfies hearts, gaining parents and children fast asleep in the backseats. 



winter days have so many lovely and wondrous things to enjoy and happy times only add to the many beautiful wonders of winter.
