Winter is a time of dark skies, cold weather, and tons of layers. Though no one says that they actually look forward to it, a few people definitely do. The first fall of snow is a glorious time of the year! It's almost like magic falling from the sky - it's beautiful, translucent, and simply fantastic. So here are ten signs you'd rather be cuddling in a a blanket by the fire than soaking up the sun.

1. You own too many thick, wool sweaters

They're too comfy... and easy.

2. You own skis/a snowboard.

Who's ready to shred?

3. You will go out of your way to have a snowball fight before going back inside.

Look out, no one is safe.

4. And you take them to the next level by building protective snowmen (with branches as weapons, and everything).

You didn't even see it coming.

5. You stare at the sky, expectantly, every time you walk outside, hoping a flake will start to fall.

Please, please, please...

6. You're the friend that has to exit the house first in order to put your footprints on the fresh snow.

There's nothing like a nice, clean slate for your snow angels!

7. You make paper snowflakes before the real ones have come.

Why limit winter to just the outside?

8. You don't actually mind the cold weather - as long as it's white outside, of course.

Everything is prettier coated in white!

9. You own too many pairs of fuzzy socks.

I don't have a problem, you have a problem.

10. You hate summer, and never want winter to end.

Dear Snow, stop melting!
