Christmas Cards and Birthday Invitations 2014

Christmas Season it also Birthday Season around here.

Layden and Ryleigh are having their birthday party on the same day but Chris and I wanted to make sure that both the boys didn't have to share the birthday party. So Layden will be upstairs having a Skylanders Party and Ryleigh will be in the basement having a call of duty party. 

Any invitation came out really cool. 

After I finished the boys birthday party invitation I got started on our family Christmas card. I was really happy I was so in front of the game this year. 

Afternoon with new friends 2014

We like to do it up right. First hot chocolate with our friends who can't make it to the movies. Then lunch at Rock Bottom. Kid got to build the own pizza, They brought out dough, cheese, 

pizza sauce and pepperoni… the rest was up to them! Then of course if they got to build their own pizza then they had to build their own sundae. Building the perfect sundae from two scoops of 

vanilla ice cream, sprinkles, chocolate sauce, whipped cream and a cherry was easily to do and a lot of much!

Next, off to the movies... Hero 6

Drive home, a reminder of beautiful Colorado.

Copper for Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving. 

Chris isn't the biggest fan of traditional holidays. He would rather be on the slopes and dinner out. I let Chris take over our vacation planning. I was a little nervous but Chris did a great job. 

The drive up was a lot of this. 

I'm a little spoil at times and not willing wanting to stay in a shit whole. I was pleasantly surprise to see what a beautiful place this was.

The kids take no time at all to make themselves at home. They were ready for the night. 

The next morning we were up and ready to hit the slopes. Copper mountain only expected 4 inches of snow and got 18 inches. 

Layden was loving the deep snow. It was incredible winter for early season. 

Layden and I spent more of the day together skiing, while Chris and Ryleigh skiied together, 

Layden and I took a break to warm up and grab a hot chocolate. 

He got comfortable. 

We meant up with Ryleigh and Chris and headed back to our mountain home. 

Then that night we took the boy to Hungry Games. 

The next morning (Thanksgiving) Ryleigh and I got the stomach flu. Thanksgiving dinner was cancelled. The following morning Chris got the stomach flu and our vacation was over. Bummer.
