It's the holidays!!! I'm so so so excited. Here's why: #1-This year I can focus on Christmas because I'm not anticipating a wedding. Last year I felt like Christmas came and went right behind my back. This year that won't be the case. I even caved and listened to Christmas music a couple of times. It's not my fault Harry Connick Jr was singing on 107.9 and that there is a super soft spot in my heart for his voice. #2-Ammon and I will be celebrating our 1 YEAR anniversary next month! WOAH. We are not going on a big trip or anything, but we have a suite booked here in Boise, plans for dinner, and I've got a few plans of my own. But that's none of your business. #3- NEW YEARS. I like celebrating. Last year we sure did celebrate BUT we lacked delicious New Year's food, watching the celebration on TV, and running around the house banging pots and pans (yes, I do that. Always have. I missed it a teensy bit last year.) #4- Don't worry, I didn't forget you Thanksgiving. 40 people cramped into my parents' house, more food than we could possibly consume in one night, more noise than anyone would be able to handle on an average day, and did I mention lots of food? The thing about Thanksgiving is that in celebrating it, our most wonderful blessings are magnified.
I'm only sad about one thing this year. I've been in choir for the last 7 years and have been able to sing Christmas songs to my heart's content. This year is the first year in that long that I am not in a single choir. Not even ward choir. My goodness. Count on me being on stage to sing the Hallelujah Chorus every chance I get. I miss you Institute choir. This was us last year around Christmas time:

Kudos to you and the workout thing. I hate working out.....as you may have already known. Justin and I actually just got a membership to our gym here in kuna and I am a little excited to have somewhere besides my stupid living room and tony,jillian or debbie to have to watch :)
Hooray for the holidays!!! Whoop! Love you.
