I have such a love/hate relationship with this blog. It's a total chore for me to sit down and think of things to say and upload pictures, but when I look back at previous posts I'm so happy to have recorded the things we've done these past 4 years. I know I'll be thankful I have this blog in the future!
Christmas was quiet this last year. We stayed in Boise again because the Stampede had a game on the 26th, and we didn't want to stress about traveling in the snow and making it back in time for the game. One of the things I've loved about living in Boise is that there are so many things to do year around. A few days before Christmas we went to the Festival of Lights at the botanical gardens. They pretty much just wrap everything in the gardens with different colored lights, and it looks awesome! I'm bummed the pictures don't really do it justice. We had a lot of fun walking around, but we didn't stay for very long because we were freezing.
We also went to a couple of local Christmas concerts around town which were really fun and a perfect way to get into the Christmas spirit
We spent Christmas eve at Ty's boss's house with a few other people that Ty works with. We didn't plan on staying long, but ended up staying past midnight. We ate, talked, and played games. It was a pretty fun night. The next day we opened presents and just enjoyed being able to spend the day together!
The rest of the winter flew by because of basketball season. Ty was very busy on game days, and also during the week with community appearances. One morning Ty had gone a community appearance and when I turned on the news there he was! It was fun for me to get a little glimpse of another part of Ty's job. Here he is in the background, on his phone posting pictures on the team's instagram. haha.
I'm so glad basketball season is in the winter because it gives us lots to do and an excuse to get out of the house when the weather really isn't that inviting. It's also nice because it makes our days together so much more exciting because they don't come around that often! I think we're I'm getting better at adjusting to not being together as often, and just enjoying the time we do have together. That being said, I'm looking forward to the spring and the lack of office hours that are going to come with it!
Glad you two like each other so much. You have a wonderful relationship to aspire too. Don't lose it.
