Thanksgiving

We spent Thanksgiving in Colorado again this year.  

Grandma knitted Caitlin a sweater and she loves it, she hardly took it off the entire trip!

Ashlee had to show us one of Grandpa's hats.  He uses this one for night grilling, it is just one of about a  hundred hats he has hanging downstairs.

Snuggling, or dog-pilling, on Mom.

It was nice fall weather so the girls played outside quite a bit.

Molly and I only lasted outside for a few minutes, it was a bit chilly for us.  Grandma found the down vest for Ashlee and she wore it nearly the whole trip.

I helped them make a few crafts with their cousin, Gavin.

Chris did a kazoo concert with them.  We had no idea what they were hiding behind their backs, or so they thought.

Grammy with all the great grand kids.

We went to the Christmas parade in Estes Park again, and it was by far the warmest year we have had up there.  And we even got to go out to eat at a steak house after the parade!

The girls love to sit in Grandma and Grandpa's hot tub.  Especially since the hot tub at swimming lessons has been broken pretty much the entire semester.

We also enjoyed seeing lots of family, and our good, good friends from Iowa (I need to get the picture from Chris' phone), Chris and I had a date to the movies, and LOTS of great food.  We had a great trip and were certainly exhausted by the end of it.
