So far this new year

 Today we went to the rodeo with Shannon and the family. Brian was able to get free tickets from his work. That makes it extra nice to have a somewhat free activity. Minus gas and food. 
That's M's head there between Shannon and Brian.
They put on quite a show. Besides the competitions, they provide extra stuff. I remember a lot of this from last year when we attended. I'd like to someday stand next to a Clydesdale just to see how really big they are. 
It was Girl Scout Day at the rodeo. About 1,000 girl scouts attended. We met most of them in the line to the women's restroom after the rodeo.
The strangest thing. Fred and I applied for a PreTSA "permit" or whatever you call it. We went to the office to have fingerprints and our picture taken. Honestly, this was the motiff of the entire office. Not just the waiting room, but in the rooms and hallways. In the room we went into, there were two unicorn busts on the bookshelf. 
The pictures really don't do justice. 
There has been snow on the ground for a long time. I don't mind the snow when I don't have to go out in it. 
We went to the Denver Zoo last weekend. Fred and I went with Shannon and the kids. They were teasing me that this is my doppleganger. Ha
We took a break from walking to enjoy some sunshine. 

I finally tried out a recipe for white hot chocolate with the kids. Not a hit. 
But they did like my banana bread.
The whip cream made it all worth it. 
Shannon and I hit the stores a few days after Christmas. 
I bought these gingerbread houses for $3.80 each. 
This is usually B's face for pictures. He really isn't mad. Just being a 10 year old boy.
