We live in Southern California so we don't do a lot of typical "winter" activities because we don't have much of a winter. We do travel to the mountains to play in the snow--snow ball fights, mostly, since our kids are small.
We like to go sledding and ice skating,

We don't get snow just cold and ice so don't usually do the fun outdoors things (which is why this would be great to win!) We usually play board games, Wii games and watch movies.

I've tried and tried and tried to make a game out of 'let's shovel all the snow' but they're not going for it.
So we settle for snow angels and snowball fights.

No snow at home so up to Big Bear we go for snowboarding and snow angels.
Our favorite winter activity is hanging out in front of the fireplace with some popcorn and a good movie (or Wii game!).
