It absolutely is. I certainly wouldn't want to live somewhere without winter. As it is we don't really get enough snow to have proper fun. I used to live farther north and winter was great up there.

In the winter I can put on a jacket, and in the summer it never gets so hot that I don't want to be outside. We get to enjoy the entire year. In most places where there isn't a cold winter, the summers are at least partially unbearable.
