… Must come down!
We took advantage of the milder temps last week to do some sledding. If only the bitter freeze didn’t have to come at all.
p.s. I still hate winter.

Snow already? Yikes! Please keep it there. We just had a really warm weekend. Hoping it stays that way! I hate winter too!
Tammi says
Oh, it’s been here for a month already! Oh the joys of living in Alberta, Canada – it’s here to stay for month and months. And months.
Christina Morley says
What a cool shot! I love the angle and the excitement! You could always visit the southern hemisphere around Dec. 🙂
Tammi says
That’s my goal each and every Winter Christina! It’s a MUST with me!
Amelia says
I love everything about this picture!!!! And as a resident of Phoenix, I am jealous!
Tammi says
Likewise, I’m so jealous of those posting photos of green grass. Wanna trade? I love me some Phoenix!! 😉
Paula J says
That’s awesome that there was enough snow for sledding!! Can’t wait til we can go too 🙂

Tammi says
Oh we have plenty right now! Tat hill is a little worn in some places, all the kids seem to go down the same spot. But, yep, lots! lol
Michelle says
We went sledding last week too. A friend dared me to go down the hill with the jump. I did and flew for a bit. 🙂
Tammi says
Ha, I haven’t been sledding in years. But, I jumped on a tube and went, I thought I would crash for sure. Fun, but not the same as when I was a kid. It seems shorter on the way down and a lot longer walking back up. ha!
Rhonda @Laugh Quotes says
So much fun and I love the smile! I think happy kids are the best part of cold winter.
Diana @ Toronto Teacher Mom says
This picture is so awesome! Please, will you do a photo shoot with my kids? You’re amazing!

Hope you are well! x
Jenn says
Okay, I am officially jealous of the weather you get! And what a perfect photo, too!
Tammi says
and you officially made my mouth drop, ha!
Grass is greaner, I guess. I’m so envious of people that get zero snow. I’m up for tradsies anytime! 😉
Meryl says
I love that photo and I do love winter! I love the snow and I love snow days when we all just hang around the house and chill (sometimes literally LOL) . In any event thanks for hosting and have a great Thanksgiving.
stevebethere says

My kids are praying for snow badly! lol they love winter way way too much

Yikes, you already have enough snow to go sledding…it’s little wonder you hate winter! great photo, love the B&W.

Sorry, I see it there now Tammi…I must practice patience…I must practice patience…lol
Tammi says
Ha, I go through the same thing, ‘where my link???’ Oh…. lol
Carrie @ Days with Dylan says
Oh I’m so jealous!!!! I just posted today about how it was 60 degrees here today and we went to the park! I can’t wait for it to snow!!!
http://www.dayswithdylanandkc.com
Tammi says
Not sure what 60 is in Celsius, but I’m jealous anyway. I’d love to go to the park again – but body parts freeze to the metal…. doh!
judy says
Now that is getting into the spirit of winter!

Mommy Outside says
Great picture! I believe you actually had snow in Alberta before we did this year (Saskatchewan) but we did get it, and more on the way this week………
Tammi says
So true, you guys usually do first. But nope – we’re the chosen ones this year. Darn! lol
alissa says
The perspective is great on that picture!
PS I hate winter to.
Jennifer @ Mom Spotted says
What an awesome shot!!
Rosey says
This picture is AWESOME. I like the changing pictures on your banner too!
kristi says
What a great shot Tammi! I feel you pain about the winter! I would rather be indoors wrapped in an electric blanket than out in the frigid cold! lol
Ginger says
Love the new look….hate winter too! LOL!
Lynette says
Great way to tire them out!!
Christy Ann says
As much as I hate winter, that’s a great photo!
Huguette E. says
I want your snow!! In the Fall I cough whenever I talk until the snow covers the dead grass and leaves. I so want your snow 🙂 Lucky!
Danielle Royalegacy says
Whoosh! That sure looks like fun!
The Mommy says
BEAUTIFUL shot! And yes, please keep the snow up there.
Alicia says
Great photo!! She is having a ball on the snow 🙂

The kids love sledding. I, on the other hand, am not quite looking forward for the snow..
Nicole says
So Fun! I love the angle of the photo and the pure smile of delight!! Happy Holidays!!
Jennifer The Quirky Momma says
That is a fantastic photograph! The composition is incredible, as is the perspective. I love it!
Michelle says
Love this shot. We went sledding this weekend, but I was too afraid to get in the way of the sled to take a pic… should do it soon though, my baby’s growing up and soon she will be too cool to be seen with mommy and daddy 🙂
Mary says
My kids are begging for snow this year. I know it gets old (or so I’ve heard), but here in the south, we have to wait a year or two in between snows. We get soooooo excited when it does. We could swap houses for a week. You’d LOVE our southern hospitality and mild temps!
It's OK to be WEIRD! says
This picture is amazing! THe black and white is just, wow! Love it!
I don’t mind winter so much. My kiddos are bigger and can dress themselves for going outdoors, and I find that I like winter MUCh more now! lol
Dee says
What a great picture! It NEVER snows here so that is something we don’t get to do!
DrillerAA says
Excellent image. Very nice composition. Well done indeed.
Gvenny says
Takes me back to my own childhood memories!! Thanks for sharing, Tammi!!!
Katherines Corner says
Great photos Tammi. I am the opposite, I hate hot! giggle thank you for sharing at Sarah’s Wordless Wednesday hop. xo
Good Girl Gone Green says
That is an awesome shot. Love the angle. I like snow, but i can wait a few more weeks!
angela m says
What a great pic. I much rather get snow November and December then Jan, Feb, Mar, Apr..
LOL
Allison says
Beautiful! Excellent composition. Love the choice of black and white and deciding to not fix the horizon. You rock!
Parent Club says
I would frame that picture and hang it darhling. Amazing picture of a beautiful girl.
posh says
Such a pretty photo too!
Deb Dorrington says
What a great shot, looks like so much fun. My sister lives in Calgary and she is already fed up with winter!
I also hate winter, it’s the snow and ice I can’t stand. As far as it getting cold I can deal with that, just dress for it but everything else about winter..Forget it..:(
❤ Julie Maloney ❤ (@Momspective) says
Moving from Upstate NY to SC makes me kind of miss all that snow. Just kind of though 🙂
Kayla @ TheEclecticElement says
I absolutely LOVE that picture!
It captures so much in just one little shot.
Crys Wiltshire says
What an incredible photo! I also hate winter, but I wrote a post last year about seeing winter through my toddler daughter’s eyes. I might hate it, but I love watching her love it.
Xmasdolly says
Oh boy, I remember when! That smile cannot get any bigger!!! HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
MrDisco says
cool photo
Doug R says
Dont fight winter. Wrap your arms around the snow and enjoy the holidays. Get a one piece with flap in the back pj’s and thick socks and make that your morning weekend clothes. Enjoy the scenery like at the LCBO with all the gift boxes, packed Tims of people enjoying each other’s company and the excitement of a Grey Cup in downtown Toronto. Bomb free buses and nothing falling out of the sky like I read on CNN half a world away. Just awful
Life moves pretty fast so stop and take a look around….enjoy the scenery.
Kari says
what a great photo! Your kids are going to treasure that when they’re older!!
brenda says
Great to see them out having fun in the winter!
Elise says
Awesome picture! I want to go sledding too, I’m a new follower

Wayne says
In the spirit of American Thanksgiving – thanks for participating on my meme – I also wish you and your loved ones a healthy and happy holiday season!
Susan says
I cannot believe you guys have that much snow already!!! We’re in Toronto…none here yet.
Erika E says
I just bought my son a new sled so I don’t mind a bit of snow. Just not when I have to drive around the city.
Sabrina T says
We don’t have snow yet, thank goodness, what a great angle on this shot though!
Robin Quick says
Wow snow already? I live in the Southern US so we dont get very much snow at all. People laugh when they hear that everything around here closes down with just a 1/2 inch of snow! Funny huh? P.S. I love winter! =)
Judy C says
Great Photo 🙂
Natasha W says
I love that picture. But wow. Snow already???? I haven’t seen much.
Dawn Kicks says
I share your hatred for winter, unfortunately my daughter LOVES to go sledding. Thankfully Nana and Papa enjoy taking her 🙂
Sharlene says
It’s funny how the cold never bothers us as much as kids – I dread winter now, and all those days where we had 30+ degree weather – I really really miss 🙁
Vanessa says
Amazing action shot!
Your fellow winter-hater!
angie s says
great photo! scary snow though none for us yet!
Kelly says
Not a big fan of winter either but it’s fun to watch the kids get all excited about it!! They have no idea 😉
Victoria Ess says
Thanks for sharing! That looks like so much fun
Teresa M says
I just can’t believe all of the snow that you have. In Victoria…sunny and cold or cold and raining…
Teresa M says
PS I hate winter too!
Heather G says
Can’t wait to take my daughter this year!
Sarah Madrigal says
How exciting!! We live about an hour from the snow but it just is too cold..I get very scared about driving in it and the kids being to weird around others in the snow..One of these days I will try to get the three children out to the snow because that picture looks fun.
Shelby O. says
I’m so jealous of anyone who gets to see snow. I’m suck in hot-year-round Florida!
Jennifer Abbott says
What an awesome photo I like that you made it black and white looks very classic 🙂
Jenn says
We did the same thing this past week! so much fun!
paula huie says
what a great photo! looks like you had a ton of fun!!!
Victoria Ess says
Beautiful picture
Rhonda W G. says
Wonderful photo…just wonderul! I don’t like winter either and didn’t much as a child …. The cold is not my friend but I DID like to tobaggon…go figiure! It’s was so much fun…Here in Southern Ontario it’s been too mild. My nephew moved to Alberta and had a great photo of him in the snow posted one day!lol
Sydney says
She looks like she’s having a blast! 🙂
Jenns Booksies says
Winter is so much fun! My girls love it and so do I!
Christine O'Connor says
Great picture, I’m with I hate winter too, this week alone I had to shovel our lane way and near the house our wide parking which I nicknamed our mini parking lot. Takes me two hrs to shovel. I just keep telling myself exercise.
Rachel VD says
We’ve only had a few dustings here, so our kids are eager to try sledding again! Have to say it wasn’t too successful last year though… maybe another year older will make things more fun 🙂
Tania B says
Argh! Snow. I moved from Calgary, AB to Richmond Hill, ON last summer and I do not miss that amount of snow at all! Great photo!
Pam says
Snow? Last year we had almost none. This year we’ve been told to expect more than ever. Guess I’d better get out the boots and get ready to go sledding just like you!
Sara says
I totally have great memories of sledding as a child. We live in TX so hopefully we will visit somewhere with snow so my daughter can experience the thrill of sledding too!
carla bonesteel says
I absolutely love this photo! The black and white makes it even more beautiful…looks like a ton of fun!
Tammi says
Thanks so much Carla, and it was taken with my phone!! That’s never happened before, great light and timing I guess!
🙂
heather holmberg says
Awwww a picture like this lasts a lifetime – cheesy but so true !! My daughter is now 17, but everyone in awhile we will pull out the old photo albums and reminisce and talk about the good old days ! She loves doing it, and I love remembering those days when she was young and so innocent, now almost ready for university, I miss those days !
Ester G says
What a fantastic shot, the lighting is perfect and it looks fantastic in B&W!
Debbie W says
I like this perspective on the shot.
