Thanksgiving

We had a fabulous Thanksgiving! My parents came here for a few days. We cooked a huge meal on Thanksgiving and stuffed ourselves for about 5 days straight. Yum!
We had so much to be thankful this year. Taylor is the best thing that has ever happened to us and we honestly can't imagine our lives without her. We have the greatest friends and some pretty terrific family! John just got a new job and will be starting in January. Still with Chase but as a Business Banker and it will be at a new branch. He's very excited and can't wait to get started! We already know his new manager and his wife and LOVE them! They have a daughter who is only 17 days older than Taylor (see pic below). It will be fun watching them grow up together. Our blessings are many and complaints are few!

I couldn't wait until after Thanksgiving to put up my Christmas decorations like you're "supposed to" (who made that rule anyway???) so I decorated the weekend before. Here's a pic of our tree...
On Saturday we had our first snowfall. It wasn't much and it didn't last long but it still gave us a reason to celebrate. We celebrated by going over to Uncle Weeds house for the famous SWEET WEED'S CHILI. We had a great time with everyone. Taylor got to play with her new friend Mimi who is John's new boss' daughter. Mimi is only 17 days older than Taylor.

John's sister Jenny and her family were in Denver over Thanksgiving so on Sunday we went down to Littleton to John's sister Becky's house so that Taylor could meet her aunt Jenny and uncle Shawn and her cousins (Kelsey, Maddison and Chase). It was so great to see them and Taylor rolled over for the first time while we were there!!! Yay baby!
