Sun and Snow after SPRING BLIZZARD!! Part I

Checking out the snow


Lots of snow!

So we had a little Spring Blizzard Friday night through Saturday night!  It is hard to say how many inches we got because the wind was blowing so hard, up 60 mph!!  So we had no snow in some places and a lot in others.
Today is in the high 50's but it feels so much warmer when you are playing in the sun and still enjoying the snow.  Tomorrow we are suppose to be in the high 70's, crazy weather the Rocky Mountains has.
I put Ava's snow pants on just to keep her dry but she did not even need a jacket because of that radiant heat.  She had fun playing in the snow with her spoon and bowl just like being at the beach. ha  She also had fun making hand prints and foot prints in the snow.  We even made a baby snowman and she thought that was hilarious. 
The pictures might be in two or three parts.

Upcoming surgery for Ava

She held so still!


What are these things??


What a big girl


Almost done, doing good



Ava had her second Cardio appointment last week.  The first one was a couple weeks after we came home from China.  It was night and day difference!  She did so well and held so still, they were able to get a real good ultrasound picture.  With those great pictures they were able to see that her pulmonary artery is still too narrow and not supplying enough blood to the lungs.  So we have surgery scheduled for April 28th at the Children's Hospital.  They will go in through her leg and use a balloon to stretch the artery, if that does not work then the surgeon will put a stint in.  I am not sure how long this procedure takes?  I am pretty nervous but with our faith in God I know all will be fine.

Yaya finally decided to pass out!


We spent a beautiful day with the kids riding motorcycles.  We weather was perfect mid 70's and pushing 80 by late afternoon.  We decided to park near the water this time so the little ones would have something to do while the older kids were riding.
Ava was a little scared of all the motorcycle noise but got used to it pretty quickly and she even took an hour nap in my arms while quads and motorcycles went zipping by the whole time.
