On our way!!!

Wednesday January 21, 2009

So Wednesday morning at the crack of dawn (actually before any smart rooster would be awake), we began moving around and getting ready to embark on our first ski trip together and headed to the some of the best skiing on earth in Utah!!! Keith had never been skiing so obviously neither had Ashlee. The most snow Ashlee had seen was the dusting we got in December (2008) so she was totally beside herself with anticipation of what was to come.

I got Ashlee dressed in her best trendy traveling attire and we were off to the airport! How cute was she?

Well as usual we couldn't get there fast enough and she was just full of questions! It kind of freaked her out a bit to have to take her shoes off for security, but I assured her it was only so they could make sure she didn't have stinky feet.

Soon we were on our way to Las Vegas. This leg was 3 hours long and by the first 30 minutes of the flight I wasn't sure I was going to make it. I was SURE I was a prepared mom this time.... I took books, crayons, coloring books, the Leapster with 5 games, flash cards, home made cookies, gum!!!, magazines etc and I think she was asking "what do we do now?" 10 min into the flight! Knowing that I didn't have to drive anywhere when I got off the plane, you know what I did!

The flight from Las Vegas to Salt Lake wasn't too bad. It was only an hour.

Most of this day was taken up with traveling and once we landed, got our baggage, picked up the car (Keith drove), picked up my dad and Vanese, it was nearly 5 so we headed to my cousins.

The evening was relaxing and we had BIG plans for skiing the next day....
