I thought we would start the week off with a Amazon GC giveaway! We are having a great weekend and I am looking forward to wonderful week. We here are gearing up for winter. Putting away outside equipment, preparing our bird feeders, setting up the dog pens for winter among other things.
So, here is what you can do to enter this giveaway, post a comment here telling me something you do to prepare for winter weather. It can be big or small, pulling out winter clothes, pulling plants in, or if you live down south, maybe you just start wearing sneakers instead of flip flops.
This giveaway will be for a $5 Amazon GC, that will be emailed to the winner. Have a great week! See you soon!

Our winters can go either way and we never know until a few days before. So to prepare, we get our winter coats washed up and ready along with our gloves, hats, and scarves. We get a bag of rock salt in case we have ice for our stairs and driveway. We make sure our cars are ready too. Other than that we don't have anything outdoors to get prepared. Our pipes are already well insulated and so we only really need to drip water when it gets into the teens, which it has only once this year.
To prepare for winter, I always make sure I have an ice scraper in my car for my windows. (Precisely Mine)
We get the roof rake out as well as the snow blower. Make sure we have salt for the walkways, and cover all of our windows with plastic.
Oh we have to drain our water pipes going outside and put foam over the faucets to prevent them from freezing and breaking during these cold winter months! Woke up to -7 degrees this morning with a windchill of -22! BRRR!
I make sure the weather stripping is all done.
To prepare for winter, I stock up on different beans for lots of slow cooker soups: split pea with ham bone, black bean soup, Senate Bean Soup, etc. Slow cooker bean soups are hearty, healthy, warming, and economical on cold days!

I make sure that all winter jackets and gloves fit. If not, we get new ones.

We plan a vacation!! Hubby works all summer (we're in farming) and it's chance to relax with us.
We always make sure we have the proper amount of air in our tires and have our vehicles winterized. We also make sure we have plenty of batteries, flashlights, and candles.
Get warmer clothes out, check the car and stock up on cans and other emergency items in case we get snowed in or lose power.
