Holiday Fun






It has been a long time since my mom has posted an update and there have been so many fun holidays in between. My mom and I travelled to Ohio for Halloween to visit my cousins. I had so much fun trick-or-treating in Granville and playing with my cousins. They were so nice to me even though I was a little cranky from not sleeping so well while we were there. We flew back to Colorado in time to trick-or-treat in Platte Park with my nana so I was able to get twice the amount of candy. It was great! I did get a little sick on the trip home so my mom and dad kept me away from all of my friends on Halloween, but we still had a great time.

We also had a great Thanksgiving with my grandma and grandpa from Ohio. I really liked the turkey and the cranberry sauce, but am not a huge fan of potatoes. My daddy really wants me to like them though, so I am sure we will keep trying.

The weather in Denver has been really cold and snowy. My mom and I are going a little stir crazy around the house, but luckily I don't mind playing in the snow too much. We also have so many great friends in the neighborhood to play with.

This past weekend my dad, mom and I went to the forest and picked out our very own Christmas tree. We got to cut it down and everything. It was so much fun. We were hiking around in the snow and we saw lots of horses and dogs and other kids. We are pretty sure we got the perfect tree. After we picked out our tree, we headed to the volunteer fire department where we got to see Santa. I am still not so sure about sitting on his lap, but he doesn't seem like a bad guy. I have the picture of me, my mom, and dad on his lap on my nightstand now. It is my absolute favorite thing to look at. There was a chili fundraiser there and we were able to get in the fire trucks. This was my favorite thing to do. I even got a junior firefighter sticker.

Wow!! No wonder we haven't had time to update the blog, we have been too busy having fun!
