Christmas Week


Dang I wish I would have kept up on last week and all of our fun events. I always have a hard time paying attention to long blogs so i will try and keep it short but make sure to include details!! I was lucky enough to only have to work Monday last week. I showed up for work on Tuesday and it was slow as can be. My family and Jake were going up to Snowbird so at 9:00 I ditched out and went snowboarding. If any of you remember it was quite a blizzard that day so it was an interesting riding day for me. To be honest I have never snowboarded so terrible in my life. I got so frustrated because there was so much fresh powder and on slopes you are not familiar with its hard to know when to pick up speed and when not to so I spent most of the day clipped out which sucked but i definitely got a good leg work out and was sore the next day. Jake had a blast and so did my family. It was great to be able to be up there with them and we got some AWESOME pictures. Here they are.

Christmas Eve was kinda a crazy day and night for us. We learned that Missy and her kids were going to try and make it home for Christmas. So we decided to try and go to both of our family Christmas parties so we could see everyone. Unfortunately they weren't able to get on the plane they were flying stand by and just happened to be a crazy day for everyone especially with the storm so they drove home and arrived on Saturday! They had a late Christmas but we are so excited they finally moved home for good and now we can see them as much as we would like. We still made it to both Christmas parties and in bed by 1:00.


Christmas Morning Jake and I got up at pretty early and opened our gifts from each other. It was fun to spend our first Christmas morning together and find out how much we have learned about each other from last years Christmas. For the most part it was a hit and we both did great jobs shopping for each other. We then went to my parents house for Christmas breakfast and to open gifts they gave to us! I am so stoked we are going to WICKED!!!!!!!!!!!! I have been wanting to go ever since we went to New York sophomore year and am absolutely shocked we are going in April! Christmas day is my favorite especially one like this year when its dark outside all day because of a Huge snow storm. We always lay around in our Christmas Jammies all day and play games eat junk and just relax! I am sad it is over but at the same time relieved. Its time to get back into the working schedule and start saving money! Hope everyone had a Merry Christmas!! and Happy New Year!!!
