Last Sunday we had a ski day dedicated to Karl. It was beautiful, warm, sunny, the snow was great... a day Karl would have loved. Afterwards we met everyone at the bottom parking lot for a Mexican fiesta. It was such a great day. We missed everyone who couldn't be there and we of course all missed grandpa like crazy.
Front and center.
Chloe opens the routine with a basket toss (that's her high in the air) - she does two spins as she comes down. It was awesome. A lot of girls can't do that and she's only been a cheerleader for six months!
Here she is in another stunt (on the right bending down) she is one of the main flyer's.
The team did great.
I was proud.
These are all of the boy cheerleaders.
Her two best friends.
Chloe did awesome. She was so fun to watch. 
Thanksgiving at the Rowans. Great day spent with the Eliasons, Cox's, Marconi's, Jeff & Shellie, Mom and Dad. Karl ate like a champion. Little Martha put out an incredible feast for all.

Went to Wolf Creek Pass for our annual tree cutting outing. Monet was ready for the cold.
Had to start it out with breakfast at Chicks
Monet is pleased with the tree selections
Becky and Riley with their (perfect) trees after miles of hiking
Annual Pheasant Hunt at Voo's farm. Very successful day. Fun was had by all including Scout and Sadie (maybe her last Thanksgiving).
Marconi and Lane packing birds (well, feathers)
Wyatt, Grant & Riley on the stalk
Grant taking a rooster on film. What pressure!
Chloe with Sadie. Tired but happy. 
she would like to go to Durango on a San Juan River fly fishing trip for her birthday ( or was it Italy?) Anyway, it doesn't matter. Since her birthdays are numbered, I decided to grant her wish. I contacted the Dude and told him what I needed. The Dude hooked us up with a private jet. (The Dude is connected!Thanks James!)
Heading to Durango. No bag check, no security lines, no boarding lines, no ignorant attendants, could carry on our handguns and assault weapons, could say "bomb" on the plane, all aisle/window seats and outstanding views.
Little Martha looking for the wine stash . Or is she hiding the wine stash?
Mr. & Mrs. Dude wondering where their wine stash went
Anticipating a great day on the mighty San Juan.
First catch of the day. One of many for LM.
One of the bigger fish of the day. She landed it like a pro.
Beautiful little Brown on a beautiful blue river.
Another nice Rainbow

Had to have one of my fish in here. Yes, Little Martha caught more fish than me.
