Ava's First Time Skiing!

OK where do I even start with this. Monday (the 16th... my birthday) we took Ava up to Deer Valley to go Skiing for the first time. We got there before lunch and we decided to take her down a few runs before we ate, and lets just say it wasn't a good idea. She was not liking it at all she was crying, the Magic Carpet wasn't working, it was snowing and very windy. So we decided it was time for Lunch. But then after lunch it was a whole new story. She was Happy, the Sun came out and she was Loving every minute of it. We were so proud of our little powder puff. Poor girl though she couldn't move or walk with all her gear on. But she looked so cute though.



Ryan and Ava getting on the lift for the first time and lets just say it was a little scary.

See that little hand up. Yeah that's here trying to wave to me. Just trying to move.





This was my favorite part of skiing... Lunch!

Ava is trying to do bunny ears.


Ava loved the Magic Carpet, she didn't want to be Jasmine though.


Is that not the cutest little skier on the mountain you've ever seen?


We are so proud Ava for skiing at 3 years old. Papa Greg gets most the credit for getting her to go down the mountain by herself. We don't know how he did it, cause she would not do it for me and Ryan but then after Lunch Papa Greg took her without me and Ryan, and the next thing we knew she was going down the Hill all by herself.
