Victorian Skate

This post was created with Grandma in mind, who has been patiently waiting for an update. Here you go....

Advertised in our local paper was an event called "Victorian Skate". It was held this afternoon/evening at a local park. Folks were dressed in Victorian era garb while ice skating, roasting chestnuts and popcorn and huddling around burn barrels. There was also a horse drawn sleigh. We didn't stay long but had a great time especially taking it all in through Ava's eyes. Just an FYI, Ava insisted on riding in her sled laying down. We tried to get her to sit up but each time she purposefully slid right down. She looked like a future Olympic hopeful for the luge competition.


Still luging...

Wise words from our sleigh driver, "Trapper Jack".....

I guarantee you that Ava will be asking for a "horthie" tomorrow when she wakes up...
