We had a great time in Boulder for Thanksgiving. Kristin's aunt and uncle live in Boulder and the entire family, we're talkin' 25 people for Thanksgiving dinner, converged there for Turkey Day. I had never been, and while some of my assumptions concerning Boulder were verified - others were not. For example: (1) I thought Boulder was "just outside of Vegas." While this is true time wise, roughly 25 minutes, it is not just outside like Sandy is to SLC. You have to drive through 10 minutes of nothing to reach Boulder. (2) I thought Boulder was "a little LDS community." Truth is a few Boulder neighborhoods are "little LDS communities," such as the one Kristin's aunt and uncle live in, but the rest of the town is as diverse as you'll find. (3) I thought Boulder would be warm, hence my plethora of shorts for the trip. Truth is it is warm, however not 80's, more like 55 - 60.
Enough of my Boulder insights - on to the pictures.
Kristin's family. I did my best to show Patten's face for the picture - however the Bjorn (that backpack thing) made it a little difficult.
Cousin Trevor and Patten. If you look closely you'll see a hand holding Patten on Trevor's back - as much as I trust Trevor, I don't trust him with my child's life.
Grandpa and grandson. Patten, as you can see, has learned how to use his arms/hands. He now sucks on his hand, occasionally swings his fists of fury, and enjoys waving his arms.
Kristin's sister Kelsey and Patten. One of the best pictures of the young one - now we just need him to learn to smile for a picture.
