Not much, maybe 2 inches at most here at the house, but it is snow. Of course, high up on the mountains, they have much more. Just 100 miles north in Steamboat, there&#8217;s almost a foot. We might get a couple more inches or so, but that&#8217;s about it. It&#8217;s 25 degrees out up here, but only about 3 degrees in Denver.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Big news of the day is Jagger has a new job! A premier investment bank, Cabrera Capital, sent him an offer yesterday. They been going back and forth for a couple months now. They actually created a job for him which is amazing. He&#8217;ll be analyzing data and trends and advising traders. These guys are big time and we&#8217;re so happy for him. Jag reports directly to the Managing Director. If interested, you can check them out here, www.cabreracapital.com.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here&#8217;s the kicker, the job is in Chicago and Jagger needs to be there a week from Monday! These people don&#8217;t mess around. He&#8217;ll fly out late next week and be in some corporate housing or rent a place in the financial district, near the office for a few weeks. Then he&#8217;ll fly back, we&#8217;ll load up his stuff and Ava, and the kids will be moving to Chicago! They&#8217;re in a great part of the city, way away from the south side where all the crime is, as it&#8217;s a big city. They&#8217;ll have to find a place over the next month. Ava will either transfer or quit her job as she really doesn&#8217;t like it. She did get all her licenses though, so she&#8217;ll be able to find a job pretty easy in Chicago. What an exciting new chapter for them. We&#8217;re super excited for both of them. They&#8217;re moving to a real city, with tons of history and culture and basically starting a new life. We&#8217;ll fly out often as it&#8217;s only a couple hour flight. We&#8217;re all still figuring out the next 30 days or so, like when they&#8217;ll move, how we&#8217;ll drive their stuff and cars out, and where they&#8217;ll live. Ava has family there and Jagger has lots of friends and we have lots of connections, so it&#8217;ll be fine. We&#8217;re all excited as this is great for him and we know he&#8217;ll succeed. They were super impressed with Jagger when he went out the first of December and would have hired him by now, but as I said, they created a position for him, so it took a while with the holidays. More to come as we learn more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This morning, we have Davy and Abbey&#8217;s handyman coming to start fixing all kinds of little things around the house. Lori and I cleaned Ty&#8217;s room yesterday. We went to Costco and bought him some new bedding and he&#8217;s off today. He needs the sleep and needs to recharge from the week before. He&#8217;s going to the game tomorrow with Jagger and Ava and a buddy. We have Marty and Mel, and I think Davy and Abbey and her brother and wife coming over for the game. We&#8217;ll celebrate Melanie&#8217;s birthday which was last Wednesday or Thursday. It&#8217;s going to be a cold one down there! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Time for me to go shovel and then get ready for Salvatore to show up at 9. It&#8217;s pretty outside. We almost forgot what snow on the ground looks like! Have a great Saturday and Go Broncos! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>God Bless.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We finally got some snow.
