Why have one Thankgiving, when you can have three?

This year was another great Turkey day. The day began early as the first stop was my fathers at 1pm. We enjoyed some cheese and crackers, wine and beer and chatted for about an hour. Unfortunately we were not able to stay much longer because we had two more stops on our own personal turkey trot. Next we were off to Pat's Aunt Pat and Uncle Daves for Thanksgiving dinner. We all enjoyed more wine and beers while watching football and looking at John's (Pat's father), photos from Vietnam. The photos looked so cool because of how old they were and how young Pat's father looked. We had a lovely dinner with a lot of laughs. Shortly after dinner it was off to our final stop of the evening, my cousin Kerry's. Very rarely does a holiday pass without a heated board game with all the cousins. This year the game of choice was "Catch Phrase", and boy did it get heated this year!!! I think that was mainly because no one could remember who was on which team. Although we went to Kerry's to have dessert, after the dinner we ate there was absolutely no room for dessert. Instead we planned board games until I almost fell asleep (p.s it was only 730) and decided to head home. Once we got home even Atreju looked like he ate too much. Oh well I guess we all have an excuse for one day of the year. Gobble Gobble

WHAT A GREAT 28!!!

I had such a neat birthday this year, so I wanted share some pics with all of you from the festivities.

We started the evening with a private wine tasting at a winery here is Colorado called Water 2 Wine. It is such a cool little place. They import grapes from 13 different countries and then produce the wine at the Winery. They had some really amazing wine, and very creative grape blends too. We had the place to ourselves for two full hours, that we used to try just about every wine they produce (at least that is what it felt like Saturday morning-OUCH!). Here are some pics from the tasting.




After the tasting we headed downtown to the big party. The party was thrown at Theorie which is the new bar that opened in the Real World Denver house after the season rapped up. It was great to see some many of my friends and models there. Here are some photos.










The night had a great conclusion... CAKE. Not just any cake either. I happen to think I have a best cake designer in the world!!! Every year Barkley (cake designer), thinks it is funny to put a little mini me on the top of the cake. Well this year I am so glad I took pics of it right away because I actually broke my own head off right after they brought the cake out- LOL!!! What a great night, and thank you to all my super duper friends who came and finished my drinks for me.
