We spent Thanksgiving in South Fork, Colorado at the cabin. It was a great time~ we even got snow all day on Thanksgiving Day! It was awesome! Grandpa and Grandma Rhees were there, and Jason & Melinda and their 3 kids were also there. We rode the four-wheelers and pulled sleds behind them trying to lose the kids! No such luck!! =) Grif and Bos even got to go skiing on Sat. It was Boston's first try so he had a private lesson. He picked up on it pretty quick and really loved it. We played games, cards, had snowball fights and ate WAY too much yummy food! Oh well~ that's what turkey day is for, right?? Hope all of you had an awesome Thanksgiving day. We are truly grateful for family and friends and the relationships we have with each of you. We are certainly blessed!

I am picturing Boston having a ski lesson and I'm rolling. Your blog is so cute and I love the music, however, I kind of got sick to my stomach when "All I Want for Christmas" came on. I have nightmares about my sorry attempt to sing this song to Kent at our wedding breakfast. What the heck was I thinking?! No one is allowed to sing a Mariah Carey song, not even the Excell girls. Please don't ever let me do something that stupid again. I will be embarrassed for the rest of my life. :)

Loves!

Jeni, I LOVED getting your card in the mail! It made my whole day. You, my dear, look like a freakin' model. Your boys are very lucky to have such a great mom/wife.
