Burning of the Tree

The Sunday after Christmas, we all went outside to see Dad burning the old Christmas tree from last year. The kids were fascinated by it and enjoyed very much. At first Alex was not sure about it but after a while it thought that was pretty cool. He even spend the rest of the trip trying to get me to go outside while saying "fire" so he can see the fire again.

 Ready for the fire

 No fire is complete without some roasting some marshmallow.  
On Monday, we went to Casa Bonita and meet up the aunt Lyne, uncle Doug  , aunt Claudia and uncle Rick. We had a great time catching up and love seeing them when we go to Colorado.( sorry no pictures of that, left my camera) But here are some picture I took the first time we took Gennie there for her birthday. It's pretty cool there, They have shows and  even a magic show.
