The first order of business when Uncle Lee and Lady Veronica are in Minnesota during the winter (for the first time in YEARS!) is of course to go skiing! Avery was more then happy to show his uncle what being one of area pros was all about.

| Ready to ski with Uncle Lee |
And like any good uncle and thing the nephew wants he gets, and Avery wanted his uncle’s poles.
 |
| I be taking your poles now.... |
 |
| Double Trouble! |
Being a ski coach who can frequently be heard reminding racers to pole plant, my soul smiled when Avery wanted/demanded to ski with poles, even thought this meant one more thing to keep track of... they seem to help him ski/turn better.

| Skiing with Lee! |
 |
| Mush!!! |
 |
| Pole planting & turning like a pro! |
 |
| Playing in the deep Pow! |
 |
| Push! |
Traditionally Avery is required to make as many runs as he is old (3) before he gets a “treat”, which most days is an apple or a cheese burger…. Today it was both!
 |
| Yum! |
 |
| No I will not share with you uncle Lee |
After fueling back Avery and Lee hit the slopes again for a couple more runs, this time with Avery sized poles.

Not sure who was more tuckered out after skiing, but I do someone feel asleep before we were out of the parking lot.

| Tuckered out after all his turns! |
