Winter Season

Humans sometimes attach the Season to a festivity or occasion - the same is true for Christmas. Do you live in a place where there is Winter? What about snow? Do the people feel uncomfortable if it is Christmas without snow? Places likes Buenos Aires celebrate Christmas in the Summer because their Winters are in July and August.

Season Winter

I live in Palo Alto, where there is no snow. And before, I lived in Israel where there was almost no winter! But I don't really care, I am Jewish, I don't celebrate christmas

It is always nice to have snow, though, at least for me. I was in only one winter in Boston, when I was six years old.

Winter Season Christmas

I have celebrated Christmas in winter, summer, with snow and without snow . In Buenos Aires, the month of december is really hot and all our traditional Christmas foods and treats are for winter! (sweet bread, etc) not to mention the poor guy who have to dress in Santa's costume oh my bosh! he surely boils inside of that! . I like winter for Christmas and snow too! I don't know, winter have this thing that brings everybody even more closer

Season Winter

I have lived in the Caribbean and Florida where there is no winter, and didnt know any better about not having snow for Xmas. Now that I live in Minnesota, where we have tons of snow, I have to admit that it makes the Christmas season feel more like the Christmas songs and stories. Other than that, Christmas shouldnt be about the weather so much as families coming together and spending time with each other, regardless of whats going on outside.

Season Winter

I have always celebrated christmas in the Pacific Northwest. We didn't have snow, but it was cold. Now that I am living in Arizona, it is going to be warm and already I am seeing christmas decorations. They aren't the more common evergreen tree with the angels and glass balls. They are cacti with red and green hot pepper ornaments!

I won't do the multicolored lights in the windows this year ~ we are in the middle of renovating our house and the rooms that face the road don't have the electricity turned on yet. I may get out my *Winter* wreath and put it on the front door.

As I said in another christmas themed post ~ I am aiming for a Christ centered holidays from now on, and I just don't see how Frosty, Rudolf, et.el. can fit in. For several years I have been striving to keep the commercialism out of Christmas, and for the most part I have been succeeding.

Winter Season

Well, I live just outside of Boston, Massachusetts. We get snow in the winter. Not always for Christmas, but usually it is at least cold. The Christmas before last we had such a blizzard that began Christmas Eve, that we weren't even able to travel to the next town over to spend the day as originally planned with other family members. That was disappointing.

I have spent Christmas in warm places as well...one in Okinawa, and a few in North Carolina. To me, the cold and snow or at least prospect of snow, is necessary to make the Christmas season seem real.

Winter Season

I live in Florida, and we have snow all year round! Of course, this snow has a tendancy of smelling like salt and is more like white sand, but we can pretend. Right? One of my dreams is to have a snowy Christmas. It did snow here back in 1989, though. Well, it was more like slush. I did make a snowman though! I had to borrow snow from our next door neighbor. My mom has pictures of me with it. She said I worked all day long on it.

I love Christmas though. I love celebrating it.

Winter Season Christmas

I love Christmas, especially when it snows. Seeing snow when I was a child was one of the most exciting things in the world. Sledding, ice skating, snow angels. (Not to mention we got out of school.) It would just seem strange to have Christmas without snow. I remember as a child, before my parents split up, me and my sisters would wake up to go open our presents and their my parents would be, holding each other with coffee in their hands, staring out at the snowwy trees and streets.... In love on an early winter morning.
