This collection of vignettes was inspired by my childhood pastimes, specifically sledding and skating. These sports made winter warmer and gave me memories I cherish every day, especially interactions between friends and family. I fish with my cousins while camping, a riveting thrill. Despite skiing being a relatively new experience, it shaped my perception of the fresh snow. Without these Christmas cultivations, I would hold a lesser fondness for the season. I hope you enjoy my depictions of these wintertime favorites.
