winter wonderland

Upon entering a side room of the basement the other night, i realized that we are all set for winter, in a weird crazy family kind of way. because you all know what a fan of snowshoeing i am. i apparently come from an avid snowshoe(r)? family though, because in the background there is a second pair of snowshoes, in case you forget where you put the first ones? i don't know. i don't think they have been used since i was born, but they are so crazy cool, and they hardly take up any space, i can totally see why we still have them hanging around our basement. i mean, after all, you never know when you and a bunch of friends will be hanging out, and they will be all, 'oh my gosh, you know what? we should all go snowshoeing!' and if you didn't happen to have a pair, and a spare pair, you would be all embarrassed and have to make up an excuse like, 'oh, sorry guys, i, err, have to go shampoo my cat. maybe later'. then you would just have to go home, dreaming of them all out having a snowshoeing good time, while you sat alone drinking your chocolate milk. cant have that. also, apparently my family and i enjoy sledding as well as skiing! who knew?
