A few weekends ago we went to Durango to visit the Fargos and to celebrate Matt's and Peter's birthdays! We had a great time and really enjoyed introducing Madison to Matt's grandparents (Cindy's mom and dad) and Great Aunt Lorraine. Tim and Cindy sure were great hosts to such a full house!
As always, we are staying busy and having fun! The holidays season is starting and we have had some chilly weather lately to kick it off!
Nana and Papa helping Madison hang on the window the sticky pumpkins and bats that she got in her Halloween basket from them.
Madison loves to read on her belly and got Nana and Papa to do it too :) So sweet!
Singing and brushing teeth with Nana
In Durango...Matt talking cars (of course!) with his Grandpa Gene

Smores...a funny way to do it, but it worked!
Happy 31st Birthday Matt!!
Happy 29th Birthday Peter!
The boys both LOVE pumpkin pie, so Cindy got a pie for each and did a great job writing their names with whip cream :)
The gang minus two (Aunt Lorraine, Grandpa Gene, Grandma Muriel, Anna, Peter, Tim, Cindy, Karen, Mel)
Madison was in bed already and Sarah (Karen's daughter was taking the picture). Karen is Lorraine daughter/Cindy's cousin
For Grandma and Grandpa's 55th Anniversary, which we also celebrated in Durango, we got them Life is Good shirts
Hey there cowgirl! Grandma and Madison read a book about a little girl with a ponytail who rode horses and had a cowgirl hat, so Madison had to play the part! Grandma found Madison this pink cowgirl hat and pink Durango shirt with horses on it. Madison loved them! Thanks Grandma!
Still wearing that hat!
The beautiful colors on our drive back home
Headed up Wolf Creek Pass

First snow!
Lovin' mommy's boots!
Keeping warm in the snowy weather
First hot chocolate! She only had a few sips, but they were yummy!
Quinn and Madison having fun in the snow!
Riding in the cart together at Target...they thought it was pretty fun!
Yea! Enough hair for a pony tail! Ever since Durango and reading the cowgirl book with Grandma, Madison is obsessed with ponytails in her hair :)
This was a CRAZY busy event! We had a fun time, but there were SO many people!!
A duck and a mouse watching the elephants
Resting on the hippo :)
The birds loved Casey! At one point he had 5 of them on his arm eating the nectar. It was fun to watch!
Madison was too busy with her free toothbrush to look at the camera
