Winter Adventures

It was one of the first snowfalls of the year. The sun was reflecting off the snow, making it irresistible. My older sister and I looked out the window, our hearts filled with excitement and enthusiasm. The season had arrived! I could not wait for hot chocolate, Christmas lights, joyful songs, and all of the winter time adventures. The only worry in our minds was what to do first! Many suggestions were made, but only one stood out as the best winter adventure for that day. We decided to go cross country skiing. The only problem was that there was no car at home, to drive somewhere to do it! This would not stop our plans though; our minds were made up! So we headed out our front door, and put on the cross country ski equipment. As we slide down the road covered with snow, we raced around our block. I was laughing so hard! We were cross country skiing on the road! Many people passed in cars with confused looks on their faces. My sister and I didn't have a care in the world! We were having the time of our life as we talked and laughed as we went along. It was one of the most enjoyable things I have ever done with my sister. We fell so many times, that when we got back to the house we were both soaking head to toe. As we dried off and had some hot chocolate, we both agreed that it was going to be a great winter holiday.
