Merry Colorado Christmas

So Merry Christmas everyone! We started our day bright and early.....5am to be exact. We kept the kiddos upstairs first thing this morning and did our normal routine so that Chris and I could actually get a shower before the days festivities began. We came downstairs at about 6:30am and the kids dove right in to all that santa had left us. I think by the end they were like "what the heck are we getting all of this stuff for??" They were in complete overload by lunch time and fell asleep for nap in like 5 minutes. They are sleeping right now and I don't expect to hear a peep from them for another half hour....they just had to much new stuff to process. It is a crisp and grey day here in the 20's with probably somewhere in the range of 8" of snow on the ground from the last storm that passed through here. We have a big ole rib roast in the oven for dinner tonight and plan to lounge in our sweatpants all day and eat way too much......life is good :) Here are a few pics from this morning. Hope everyone is having as fun and relaxing of a day as we are......

Look Who's 2...and it isnt me.....

Our Thanksgiving Trip

Sorry it's been a while, time really is flying right by. Since our last blog post we took a trip to St. Louis for Thanksgiving. It was really great to see all of the family. While we were there the kids had their 2nd birthday. Thanks to everyone who helped us celebrate. We had a little celebration with just me, Chris, Wes & Mia before we left for Thanksgiving. Wes and Mia got shiney new tricycles. Here is a pic of them trying them out.....

Then we had a second celebration on Thanksgiving day where Wes and Mia had chocolate pie.....

Then we had a third celebration on their actual birthday where we had pizza and cupcakes - yummy......

Wes and Mia did really great on their first big car trip. We had lots of fun in St. Louis playing with all of their cousins. Thanks for a great holiday....see you all again this summer!
