Busy

So, it's been a while...

We have been busy so I will just give you a quick recap. My brother and sister and nephew came into town for Thanksgiving. It was good to have them here for a few days. While they were here we went to the Pro-rodeo Hall of Fame. That was my brother's one request. The boys hated the statues. We also took all the kids to see Santa. Caleb and Landon were both afraid at first but quickly warmed up. Caleb had Santa laughing with all his talk about monkeys. The child has a lot to say about them because he is one.

On Thanksgiving we also had our friend Angie over for dinner as well. Of course we all ate way too much, but what else do you do on Thanksgiving. My family left on Friday morning. The kids and I did some shopping but didn't really find any great deals.

We got 11" of snow on Sunday. Aaron decided we should go hiking. We headed over to Garden of the Gods. The odd thing was that though we already had 8" at our house there was only maybe 2" over there. Oh well. We did a small hike through the park and then did lunch in Old Colorado City.

Aaron's brother was came to visit on Monday. He was here on business and stayed with us for 2 nights. The kids were thrilled to spend some time with their Uncle Pooky.

Aaron has been out of town for Reserves this weekend, so the kids and I were on our own. We spent Saturday afternoon shopping in Denver. That evening we went to the Parade of Lights in Downtown Denver. We had a great day. It would have been nicer with Daddy but what can you do?

Today we just hung out. Campbell had a little girl over for a play date. Other than that we just did housework.

So, now you are caught up on us. I'll try to keep up better in the future. No promises though as we are trying to get ready for Christmas and the traveling that we have planned.
