Thanksgiving

We had a marvelous Thanksgiving. Daniel's parents, brother Andrew, and sister Laurel with her husband Dane all came to visit for the week. The girls couldn't get enough of all of them. We started the party on Saturday night with the Colorado College hockey game. Eliza and Liesel ate nearly that whole tub of popcorn and Eliza kept asking for a hockey game the whole week.

Swimming was another big hit. It took Liesel a few minutes to warm up to the idea but after a quick bob around the pool with grandma, we could hardly keep her above water.
Eliza seemed to like the sidelines just like her mom.
And of course Thanksgiving dinner was a smashing success complete with the place settings my friend Rachel help me make.
Here's to all of our blessings!
Thank you family for your sacrifice and effort to be here with us. We will cherish the memories.

Our Night Without Dad

Tuesday night Daniel has school from 4:30 until 10pm; so it is just the girls and me hanging out all night. Our survival mechanism for today was a popcorn/movie party after nap time and then a quick trip to Wendy's for dinner. The girls loved it. Of course we had to watch Toy Story because Buzz is probably the coolest Space Ranger around. At least he is the only one we know.
