Thanksgiving and Snowboarding

This year we did something different for Thanksgiving. We skipped the holiday traditions with family and road-tripped it to Vail, Colorado with some of our best friends, Aaron and Denise Power. This was an especially great time for the trip, as I'm mid-thesis in my masters program, Jeremy had just finished one job and was about to start another at Lockheed Martin (woo hoo!), and Denise had a week off of work for Thanksgiving. 


Here are some of my favorite pictures from our trip:



Clayton, New Mexico
The Dinosaur Statues






This is how Denise learned to snowboard


Then she padded her knees and booty in preparation for Day 2...

Cold kisses - it was -26 F that morning!
