Now that the holidays are over and done with, until February that is, we can finally start to relax. Or, so we hope. ;)
A little overview of the holidays: I worked the 23rd of December this year, a 10.5 hour shift, and we both worked the 26th. We decided to spend the weekend with my parents in South Jordan, which was really nice. We celebrated Christmas a day early, on the 24th, and we had a lot of fun. Presents from my parents came with the "survival" theme, and everyone had a great time relaxing. We also spent 2-3 hours with Nana at her apartment. The next day we went to Daren and Joni's ward to listen to their program and hear them sing. We were able to spend time with their kids and grandparents. Later in the evening we made our way back to Logan, but with a what should have been a quick stop, but ended up being an all evening adventure with Grandparents. We had a wonderful feast that grandmother put together for us, and had a wonderful time Skyping with Miguel's family for quite sometime on Christmas.
We didn't do too much for New Year's Eve, but we were able to spend a lot of time with the Traveller's at their house along with some of the missionaries from Miguel's mission. Boy, did they have a party! ;) New Year's Day was a simple, but relaxing day since I worked the next day.
Miguel and I have spent every single holiday together, minus Mother's Day May of 2011. It's been quite the nice set up for us. Every holiday we have been able to talk about traditions, or even just have a good time with each other or family.
I can't believe that we have been together for almost one whole year. We decided January 22nd was the official day we started dating. We've known each other since January 11th and went on our first date on the 17th.
Time sure has flown by for us. Next thing you know, we will have been married for a year. ;)
School starts tomorrow for Miguel. He's super excited for school to start up. He's gotten a little bored over the break without something other than me to take up his time. Miguel is taking 6 classes: 3 Linguistics, Humanities, Calculus and a Racquet ball class. He's going to try out the linguistic side of his interests to see if he wants to pursue that instead of Engineering.
Wish him luck on his new class!
