November and December in New Mexico have been surprisingly snowy, and we have been taking full advantage of both the indoor and outdoor recreation activities.

| In early November, we went to our good friend Jennie's opening in Santa Fe. She also made our wedding dishes and is available to make a wide variety of things, check our her etsy store at http://www.etsy.com/shop/jenniejohnsrud. |

| We went to this amazing event at Jemez National Monument where they put luminarias (or farolitos in NM) on the ruins of an old pueblo. |
 |
| Once it got dark, the candles lit up and some dancers from the Jemez pueblo performed. |
 |
| I got to head up to the Sandia Mountains with some pals for some early December skiing. Thanks to Candyce for the ski loan! |
 |
| Then Ben had a snow day. Seriously, this is all it took. To be fair, places in the mountains got almost a foot. |
 |
| Our Carleton friend Leilani lives up in Taos, a very cool little skiing village. |
 |
| We have never been cross-country skiing in the mountains before and it was so beautiful. Leilani took us backcountry skiing in Los Brazos in Northern New Mexico to test our skills. |
 |
| The three of us had an awesome time! |
 |
| Leilani and her husband (sadly he had to work while we went skiing) were our intrepid guides to Taos- skiing, music, parties. Thanks Justin and Leilani! |
 |
| Whoa! Check out that scenery. |
 |
| Happy and exhausted after a long ski. |
