Thanksgiving in Colorado

On Wed Nov 21, Karen Oliver flew to Denver from California.  Rachel, Jason and Susan Oliver flew from Virginia to Denver.  Everyone came to our hew house for Thanksgiving.

We were joined by our cousin Kelsey Butler (and her dog Bodhi) who is living in Boulder to attend grad school, and everyone helped us decorate for the holidays. 

It was really fun and we were so glad to have time together with family.

Other highlights of the visit include going to the zoo, having Karen and Susan leave all sorts of fun Christmas packages for us to open later, and going to the Celestial Seasonings Tea Factory Tour. 

Shortly after Thanksgiving, Jason and I went on a hike with Rachel, who still loves wearing her warm monkey costume out and about.  We have not hiked with Rachel in the backpack in quite a while.  She didn't want to be in it as much and wanted to walk more, but eventually she fell asleep in it anyway. 
 













Getting excited about the holidays!
