Todd and I had a great week of fun with Tara and Branden. We went boot skating on the lake behind our house one night, Out to eat many nights: Melting Pot, On the Border, 3 Margaritas.

The Night before Tara and Branden had to go home we all went Ice Skating in Centera. A first for everyone but Beth, and no one got hurt!!!

Estes Park News Year Day

We all had a great time and it was sad to say goodbye!

A week of first kills

Todd had a great week of first kills. He was so excited with all of his great kills. Todd and Adam set up a spread of goose decoys and actually called in some geese and a couple of ducks. He was so excited to have finally killed a "Canadian Honker"

Pete Forster, Todd and Adam went out to eastern Colorado for a pheasant hunt. They had a blast. I was told they hunted in front of the combine cutting the corn. They used it as their bird dog. The pheasants were everywhere.

Pete is the man, I'm not sure he ever missed.

Anniversary Weekend

Todd and I had a great Anniversary weekend. Dinner Saturday night at the Melting Pot were we had a 3 hour fondue dinner with steak, lobster and dark chocolate! WOW! That is all I can say.

Sunday the Forsters and the Flamings set our to find the family Christmas Trees in the forest. What a great day of fun. Picking the perfect tree can be very challenging with two little ones and 4 Adults who act like children when it 10 degrees and snowing.

We got home and turned the tree around like 5 times to find the right side then spent the rest of the night creating Christmas in our home.

What are great way to finish off our 1st year of marriage and bring in the new year!

Devils Backbone Hike

Todd and I went for a Sunday afternoon hike to Devils Backbone. We watched a beautiful sunset and a great view of the Rockies. Great Sunday afternoon adventure!

Our First Thanksgiving Dinner

Todd and I had a great adventure cooking up our first Thanksgiving dinner. Our turkey turned out perfect, golden brown and so juicy! Due to our hot oven, our turkey was done 1 hour earlier than expected. Todd and I rushed around the kitchen making the rest of the fixing's, mashed and sweet potatoes, stuffing and gravy. Then we lit the candles and were about to thank the Lord for our meal, when Todd remember we had forgot about the green beans! Oh well ! DIG In it's Turkey Day!

Claire and Beth Weekend

Claire came out to Colorado for the weekend. We had a blast shopping, dining, and just spending some good girl time.

We had a wonderful sushi dinner in Boulder

Then walked around and shopped Pearl Street in the snow

Then went out to the spa in the snow!

It was a great weekend of pure girl fun!

Beth's First Big Game

Friday Todd and I traveled up to Wyoming for a weekend get away! It was my first time in the state of Wyoming, killing my first Speed Goat, and shooting a few Prairie Dogs!
It was great to get to share this with Pete Forster and Pop pop!

Todd was very impressed with my shot, I made a great kill shot from 223 yards away!
He was very proud of me and he was very excited.

It was a lot of fun getting away and seeing all the beautiful country side and all the animals, it was crazy!

Shooting Prairie Dogs is way more fun than squirrels. They are huge and once you shoot they all stand straight up to see what is going on. Oh my oh my what fun that was!!!
