Snow Angels

I do not remember making snow angels growing up... maybe sand angels???  But this is one of the reasons I love living in Colorado...The Snow! Besides snow days which are few and far between.... the snow is beautiful! I love waking up to snow covered rooftops and when the sun hits the snow and the whole world around you has a glitter glow to it... it is quite magical. I hope we have a white Christmas this year. It is even more magical to spend time in the snow with Shelby. Heath and I had a blast.... not sure if Shelby loved making the snow angels as much as Heath loved helping her. However she loved throwing snowballs at us.

Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving landed on Heath's Birthday this year. Our original plan was to be in California and go to Disneyland and hangout with family and friends and although we were able to hangout with family and friends it was here in Colorado instead. Our trip was cancelled after a series of unfortunate events, but we were so blessed to spend Thanksgiving with Heaths sister and her family...although we forgot to take pictures. Heath turned 34 this year! Happy Birthday Day Heath we love ya ;)

Although we missed Disneyland .... the creative thanksgiving stories we heard from our nieces and nephew made it all worth it!

Halloween

Shelby had a blast this Halloween.  She mostly loved holding and loving her twin cousin "Alice" and the "Queen of Hearts" aka Reese and Presley and the trunk or treat. She was not so excited about going up to strangers and saying "trick or treat" however when we got to the end and she realized her bucket was no longer empty and full of goodies she was one happy camper. We love that we live so close to our cousins. On Halloween she got more of a trick rather than a treat. :( We went to the doctors and instead of a treat she got blood work with a scary needle. She did get her treat when she was done though.

Carving Pumpkins

 

 

Shelby was not to sure about Pumpkin Carving.... she liked opening up to see what was inside, however she did not like touching the seeds inside and was a little apprehensive about the pumpkin with a face.

Estes Park

My parents came to town and we took them to Estes Park. We ate at the scary hotel from the Shining.... pretty spooky!!! Mostly we enjoyed the scenery. Heath however did not he threw out his back a couple days before and could not move after the drive up there. We enjoyed having them here with us!
