Dawn and Ed Go USA

We have some catching up on things that we have done the last couple weeks starting with Thanksgiving on November 27th. Since we don't have any family here and we have neighbors sharing the same thing we decided to have thanksgiving together. Dinner with a 19 pound turkey, sweet potatoes, roasted potatoes and veggies. Not to forget cherry and dutch apple pie as desert! I finished with a long workout that evening to work off the calories ;-)

That weekend we also setup all the Christmas lights cause as soon as thanksgiving is over you turn on the lights. I made some pictures but it's a bit difficult to see.

Then last weekend we went to Idaho visiting Dawn's parents for a late Thanksgiving dinner and early Christmas presents exchange. Since flights are too expensive around Christmas we decided to go this early. Dawn spend her Saturday receiving presents on her baby shower and I went skeet shooting with the guys. We brought 175 shells which we thought would be enough but we ran out in like 30 minutes! Oh, and of course I got sick again which seems to be my curse when I go to Idaho! It lasted like 8 days this time and now I know why. Not drinking enough water. The doc told me to down 3 liters of Gatorade energy drinks cause they have electrolytes. Still can't believe it but this fixed me up right away!! Go Gatorade!

Alright.. Below are some pictures again and we will keep you guys posted on the baby.
Dawn is now 24 weeks along and only 16 more to go ;-)

Flying by Mount Rainier on our way to Seattle... Yes, we had to take the long route back to Colorado.

Here is a short video of our neighbor using my snowblower this evening. It was around 2 Farenheit (-16 Celsius) today. Brrrrrrrr
