Question

Somehow, the teacher always seemed to know when I didn't know the answer to the question. 🤷‍♂️😅

Game Day

Oh, that's right...it's game day! 😁🏈

You could always tell when the home team was having a good season. On Sunday, the neighborhood would become extremely quiet while everyone was inside watching the game!

Cold Saturday Nights

 I miss those cold Saturday evenings in front of a warm fire. 🔥😊

False Alarm

True Story! One year in gym class, while we were playing a Frisbee game, a classmate threw the disc, and accidentally hit the fire alarm! The impact set the device off, and the whole school had to evacuate!

The incident convinced the school to install plastic shields over all the alarms in the gym. 😅🚨

Diggin' Out

When the snow is really coming down, any attempt to dig out feels like a futile effort! 😮‍💨 ❄️

In the Cold

Ah, fire drills...when the class practiced walking single-file outside in case of a fire. At the sound of the alarm, we had to drop what we were doing and leave, which meant we couldn't grab a coat before going outside in the cold. The situation was even more brutal when you were in gym class when the alarm went off. 🥶

Dodge

Of course, who can forget that timeless classic...DODGE BALL!

When you had a reputation of being "athletically challenged", you had a pretty large target on your back whenever the P.E. class played a game of dodge ball! 😅🏐

Moving on Up

Oh, look! It's my least favorite activity in P.E. class...the rope climb!

I mean, I would rather play DODGE BALL than try to climb a rope, and that's saying something! 😅

Blizzard

It was always eye opening to take a stroll through the neighborhood after a heavy snowfall. It felt like walking through a trench with high snow banks on either side of the walkway as far as the eye can see. 😳❄️

Ice!

A rare moment when I could be seen dancing...

...when I was trying to stay upright after slipping on a patch of ice! 😅

Slip Sliding

Driving in the snow is definitely an acquired skill! 🤓

Sitting in the back seat, it was almost like riding an amusement ride as the car sloshed back and forth on the way down the road! 😅🚗

Snowball

Another fun activity when it snowed...snowball fights!

I mean, there's nothing like smacking a friend in the face with a pack of snow...well, probably...my aim was never that good enough to find out for sure! 😅❄️

Snow Activities

Another fun activity when it snowed...making snow angels!

Sure, your backside would get full of packed snow, and if you didn't layer up well enough, your undergarments would get wet, but that's just part of the experience! 😅❄️

Snowflakes

It was always magical as a child to be outside while it was snowing!

We had quite a few activities to do when we were out in the snow. One was trying to catch snowflakes on our tongue! 😝❄️

Snowman

Who else tried to build as big of a snowman as they could?

When the snow was wet enough, it was easy to roll the snow into small boulders. The challenge was always trying to stack them on top of each other. ⛄️❄️😅
