Thanksgiving Celebration and x-country skiing
What a great weekend! Lots of relaxing time with friends and Cayle :) The first picture is Natalie planted in front of the tv with her coffee, waiting patiently for her cousin Delaney to perform the opening act of the parade. Unfortunately, we weren't able to find Delaney in the crowd, but the parade was fun to watch anyway!
We had an awesome spread of food for Thanksgiving lunch. All this food below, in addition to the table of appetizers we had in the other room. Lots and lots of amazing food!
Cayle's first Thanksgiving. He wore his Thanksgiving bib to celebrate the event. He had started solids a few days before and had enjoyed rice cereal, bananas and avocado. Thanksgiving was his first attempt at sweet potatoes! He really enjoyed them...and his fingers, of course!
Family photo on Thanksgiving. Too bad Cayle wasn't interested in the photo!
Delicious, scrumptious mini cheesecakes made by Jess. Unfortunately, there were a few left over at the end of the day and she had to leave them with us. Pretty sure they were consumed for breakfast on Friday...
This next picture is hilarious. It was Cayle's first time to help decorate for Christmas. So, here he is holding on to Santa for mommy. Cayle looks so serious!
The next photos are from cross-country skiing we did on Saturday. We went up Valley Road to find some nice snow. It was Natalie's first time on the skis, and she only face-planted once!

Cayle at the end of our cross-country skiing session. He clearly enjoys his time in the Chariot. He was super-bundled up and stayed nice and warm :)
Only three weeks of school until Christmas Break!

Random
The shelf I built last weekend with a few of the bikes hanging underneath it. It's working great! All we have up on top so far is the camping stuff, but as soon as the holidays are over, all those boxes will go up there as well.


Cayle had his first off-road ride behind the bike this afternoon. We went up Spring Creek Road (dirt and rock) up behind our house for a couple of miles. It was a slow climb, so I think it was a good pace for him. Good training for me pulling him! He never woke up, so it must have been a pretty smooth ride.
May have been just a little bit muddy in some spots, but he sure didn't seem to mind. 
A little video of a momma playing with her baby boy... Cayle is so full of laughs! He loves to laugh, and it's so much fun! (He also loves to sleep, which mommy and daddy love.... :-)

Halloween
Cayle had an eventful, exciting, and tiring weekend! Mommy and daddy as well. Not our favorite holiday, but definitely want it to be a fun experience for our baby boy! He decided to be a Beetle Bug for Halloween this year. Grandma Brummer found his outfit at a garage sale.
Daddy decided to dress up as a LOSER.... Shhh... don't tell mommy I said that.... :-) Mommy decided to dress up as a WINNER! Her Jersey was a little large, and mine was a little small...
Cayle is happy with this jersey...
Not so much with this one....

These are the pumpkins Natalie and I carved today. Mine didn't get a mouth, just bat ears.
Cayle's fall pictures out in the back yard.
The Brandts had the most creative (and time consuming I'm sure :-) costume. The ipod and the Earbuds.
Cayle all worn out from his weekend flying around as a Beetle Bug. As you can see, he has taken quite a liking to his fingers. Time to get to work on his next Halloween outfit.

Cayle's 2nd cousin ..... and....Race tomorrow
My cousin Jodi who lives in Highlands Ranch, CO, and her mom came out to visit us today and are spending the next couple of nights with us. Jodi and her husband Luke have a 9 mo. old son, Nathan, who came along to hang out with his 2nd cousin, Cayle. At this point, I'm not sure you would call it hanging out so much since Cayle doesn't really get around that well. Although Nathan did try to pull his hair a couple times.... Nice gesture towards friendship I guess.... :) Below is a picture of Nathan cleaning the carpet for us.... Thanks Nathan!
2nd race of the season tomorrow in Eagle Ranch. I don't usually pre-ride the course, but decided to today. Happy I did so, just so I know a few of the turns. I think I should be able to get a top 10 as long as everything goes ok equipment wise. It's not the best course for me, but should be fine. Starts out with an 8 minute climb on a dirt road, then dirt road back down, into a singletrack rhythm section, out into a power false flat back to the finish/2nd lap. The 2nd lap is exactly the same as the first with a granny gear climb at the beginning of it. Hope all goes well, and I can get back to back good results and more points for Mountain Peddler in the series.
