Christmas...it was quite different this year. It was our first Christmas being married and we moved into a new apartment just before the big day. We did have a tree. Ha...I made one of our fake trees into our Christmas tree. It was actually really sad and ugly, but it worked.
Ha Ha... here is a close up of some ornaments
Hopefully next year we will have an actual tree. We ended up staying in Spokane. We went to my parents for Christmas Eve and ate a ton of crab and then opened presents from my parents. It was a wonderful evening filled with lots of laughs. On Christmas we went to my brother's house for dinner in which I made a huge carrot cake. It was good but way too much of it. We had a good time eatting dinner and enjoying time with family. We also got to watch the Nativity story and Despicable Me. Overall, Christmas was different than any we have had before. I am excited for us to make new traditions.
And on to New Years...
We drove through the nasty snow filled Blue Mountains to Boise for New Years. Travis' brother lives in Boise and they just had a cute baby girl who was to be blessed on New Years day. We stayed with them from Thursday through Sunday with Travis' parents also. We played games, watched a crazy movie that Travis recommended, ate pizza, watched some football, and laughed. It was a great weekend trip.
After all of the holidays and moving I think Travis and I felt the same way...
We were tired and ready to spend some time at home not unpacking or visiting people, but just resting at home getting use to our new life.
