Our first Family Ski Trip!



We had a blast on our first family vacation! We took Em'ry to Wolf Creek for the first time! It was a long trip but Em'ry was a trooper.



We stopped in Booker on our way to Colorado to meet up with Brandi, Corey, Mom, Dad, Jana, Cesar, and Hailie. It was nice to see everyone even for a short time. It was also a good way to break up the trip since it is such a long drive.
Nolan got to hold Em'ry for the first time!


It took us about 10 hours to make the 8 hour trip because we tried to make it as pleasant as possible for Em'ry. She did great! We had a little meltdown about 2 hours from the cabin and even a pacifier wouldn't solve the problem. But, turns out she was just tired of looking at Mommy! So, Greg and I traded places and she was golden.

Everyone but my mom and Hailie wanted to ski so they got to spend some quality time with Miss Em'ry. It was the first time I had been away from her for more than a couple of hours so I was a little nervous but they survived. My mom said she got upset a couple of times but I guess that is normal for a 3 month old:) Or, in Hailie's words, "Baby Em'ry cried for her Mommy!" I think they had a lot of fun as you can see from the pics.




We made the entire trip from Pagosa to Edmond in one day on the return trip! It didn't go as smoothly as the trip out but we make it. Again, Em'ry did great for the first eight hours and then had a meltdown. This time the Binky that Aunt Bran bought against my will did the trick!


We had so much fun and can't wait for next year's ski trip!
