Thanksgiving.

Thanksgiving is one of our favorite Holidays! It's an all day event and activities usually start at 11am and go til all hours of the night. This year was one of our best.
the day starts with beer and football watching...

We set up the table outside this year! It was a beautiful Colorado day.

Our sixth year together!!
Are they handsome or what?!

We love our Ergo! Thanks A!!


happy people. happy tummies.


Guthrie loved the meal (suprise suprise)...his personal favorite (judging by the quantity consumed) was the crab dip and french bread. What are we going to do with this kid?

Immediately following dinner, I looked up to see bobby pumping the tires of his bike (pictured below)...I became very nervous, very quickly.
Here's why!
The boys set up ramps and started doing tricks with bikes, sleds, wagons and tricycles...yes tricycles!
the ladies watch.

It started to get crazy a few hours in...

my personal favorite ...

look at all these men and boys... all plotting and scheming different ways to plummet themselves off the hill.

Bobby rode over Danie at one point.

we were literally climbing over each other all day...it was tight but cozy!

Elliot is so good with Guthrie
Emily and Tristan crash


story time for the boys.

Bobby finally winding down.

and....good night.

  2. Wow, the boys and ramps are out of control. Your Thanksgiving looks like so much fun. Nice work at hosting a big crowd; it looks like a huge success. I'm glad you're enjoying the Ergo; it's so cool to see Guthrie hanging out in it. I can't believe what that little man is eating these days! So glad you had a great time in 70 degree weather! We missed you, still. :)
