Some of the few reasons I LOVE Colorado soooooo much! Love and Gratitude!!! 

For the first time in years we missed the annual Vossler/Rokos/Carlavato Thanksgiving. This year we were all tied up with other obligations. Thankfully my parents and brother could join Troy, Stella and I and 20 athletes in Copper for a Thanksgiving feast.  Uncle Tommy and Stella strolling Copper.   Dad and I toasting to life, love and health.  Tommy, mom and I enjoying a few glasses of wine at the base of Copper Mountain. What you don't see behind us is a HUGE toasty fire!   So much gratitude for this family!   "The girls" and Stella enjoying Thanksgiving dinner.   LOVE this guy!  Unfortunately there were quite a few people missing from our Thanksgiving celebration (the rest of the Watt's and the Conkling's) but we send out LOTS of gratitude for them too.  part 3 to follow.....

Boy, have I missed blogging, especially with all the great pictures I've gotten over the last few weeks.  We had an incredible trip to Colorado (as expected) but it's nice to be back home. I miss Colorado TONS and the people there but it felt like home coming back to Waterville (never thought I'd be saying that).  I am surrounded by piles and piles of laundry and Stella and Troy both doing homework and work and I am filled with gratitude for this adventure and this life with the people I love.  On to the good stuff.....I feel like if I posted all the great pics from the trip it would fill up tons of pages so I'll try and keep it to a minimum.... Love these guys....from left to right : Jim, Leslie, Trevor, Dawn (with Baxter in her lap) Remy, and of course Stella (holding Tiger). Thank you guys for a WONDERFUL evening.  First day on snow. I met up with Troy in Loveland on our way to Lake George to make our first track of the year ...
