The Weather in Denver, CO has been so warm and beautiful, it's hard to believe snow is in our forecast on Sunday. If your a native of Colorado you know to blink, the weather will change quickly from a blizzard to 70 degrees within 24-hours. Fall/Winter is definitely my favorite time of year- leaves are turning, chilly nights to sit out on the patio with a glass of wine, and ski season is right around corner. What I love the most is, the snow falling, a warm fire, family watching movies, playing games, and your home filled with delicious smells of Chili on the stove. Yummy!
