Then yesterday we took her skiing for the first time. She had so much fun, and was really good at it. For the first little while Ashton held onto a harness attached to her while she went down the hill, then we took it off and I stood at the bottom (It was a little hill they have at Little Beaver now) to stop her if she couldn't stop herself. She thought it was great and she snow plowed really well. She only fell once really, and cried for a little bit, but got back up and tried again. She tried to go down a bigger hill with Daddy, but it was a little too scary for her, so he ended up skiing down with her in his arms. I didn't ski, but I watched, and I was so proud of how well she did. She is growing so fast, and sometimes when I hug her now, I hold on a little longer, because I know this time isn't going to last forever.

1st times
We took Aspen sledding for her 1st time at Old Main Hill. She thought it was fun...we thought it was a little scary. It was pure ice, and nothing at the bottom to stop us. We found a grassy spot to sled into so we didn't get close to the road. She had so much fun with it.

How fun! I can't believe that Aspen is big enough to ski or go sledding. Most of the time I still picture her barely bigger than Ivy. What fun!
Yay! We're taking Kona skiing for his first time this year too. I'm SO scared! ha ha! I'm probably more scared than him. Sounds like Aspen did great!
I remember Old Main Hill days. How fun! I wish we had snow here to enjoy those activities during the holidays. Sorry about sunday...that's not fun. How is she feeling now?
SO Cute! She is getting to big! Way cute skiing!
Dear Shanda
I can see that you take nice photos and add them to your blog for others to see. I started a website called Theme hunt (www.themehunt.ca). P.S. this is not a virus. My name is Annika Gofton and I live in Guelph, Canada. Every week there will be a different theme word. Then you can make a separate entry to your blog: „Themehunt – dogs“ (this weeks theme is dogs, next week is fun in snow). And then you can copy your entrys URL to my site. That is how other people can see what photos did you find and people can comment. I am trying to create a little friendly community of people who take part of theme hunt every week and give/take feedback-comments. Hope you want to join. Check the site for rules and upcoming themes.
With best regards and hopes to see you join,
Annika
