Trip Home

Chris and I had a really fun trip home to Trussville for the holidays. We ate way too much food and had way too much dessert during the week. We headed down to Auburn for the game. Emily went to the game with me, which was exciting. We made it to half time before I started running out of "treats". I didn't know how much she could eat...she had Reece Pieces, Skittles, Gummies, a salted pretzel, and a hot dog! Yes, that was all before half time. It was still a great day even though the Tigers didn't win!

More Snow

It kept snowing through out the night and is still snowing today. I am not sure how much snow we will end up with on the ground. Chris might be taking the bus home since the 4Runner is not so great in the snow. I included an updated photo of the kitchen. We have to put up the backsplash and knobs and will be done with that part! However, still alot left to do....but getting closer.

Time to Get the Skis Tuned...

Last weekend we went to the new Warren Miller film with some friends, which always signals that ski season is around the corner. On Sunday, Chris went up near Breckenridge to do some touring in the back country. The snow wasn't great, but the weather was nice and he got some good photos. Josh and some of the other guys did some kite skiing while they were there. I have been working around the house this week while Chris is out of town. It has been in the 70s, but now there is inches of snow falling down. I went to the CU volleyball game tonight to see Melisa since she is their trainer. I picked a good one to go to. CU lost, but put up a friend fight and it was crowded.

Happy Halloween

We had a fun Halloween around Boulder this year. The dogs even got dressed up. Chris and me went as "Flu Busters". It looks pretty intense, but the outfit was actually really cheap and easy to make. Happy Halloween!

SNOW, SNOW, SNOW

We got about two feet of snow at our house between Tuesday and Thursday night. The snow just kept coming, so I have been working from home all week. The good thing is we never lose power. It started to thaw out yesterday afternoon, which made the roads very icy last night and this morning. Chris was not impressed with my driving skills on ice last night, but we made it home!

Update on the Slaughters

We have still been busy working around the house, but have found time to relax here and there!

A-Train and Kitchen Updates

Reverend A-Train was in Keystone this past weekend for a wedding. I say Reverend since he became one and actually performed the wedding! It was really fun seeing him again. There is a chance he could be moving back to the States and working for Aspen, so we will keep our fingers crossed! They are trying to work out the Visa issues at the moment. On another note, we had the sink and granite installed today. We are getting close to having it done!!
