Three days 'til Christmas...and still here...

Well finals are finally done! I'm free for the next little bit while Peter will finally be starting in January and he cannot wait (which personally I find a little odd that he be excited, but that's Peter for ya!) Now the next thing to look forward to is CHRISTMAS! Peter and I have enjoyed decorating the apartment (with much thanks to Peter's mom and my mom), and counting down and preparing to come home for the holidays. Unfortunately, due to the giant burden of work, we can't leave Idaho until Christmas Eve:( So we're staying here and enjoying what we can of the holidays in our small apartment until we can go to my home in Utah (Georgia next year:) ) and better enjoy the holidays there. In a few days, we'll have family, a fireplace, legitimate food, and family to be around. But for now, it's nothing but work, housing people who need to stay here a little longer, enjoying each other's company, and looking forward to spending our first Christmas together :)

A great visit from a great friend!

This past week, we've had Peter's best friend, Bobby, come and visit us. Of course, Peter and I love having company stay with us so having Bobby here was an extra special treat. Peter and Bobby have been best friends since Peter's been in Georgia and I've known Bobby for as long as I've known Peter. In fact when me and Peter got married, Bobby called me his "Best friend in law"! Can't say that I've ever been called that before!
The first thing that happened when Bobby showed up was, of course, him and Peter started playing Call of Duty...and they kept playing...for hours...and hours...and hours...I didn't complain (At least not until the third day of this:) though. It's not everyday that your best friend comes a ways to hang out with you. When they weren't playing video games, they made fudge, we watch movies and TV shows, Peter and Bobby "sang" (you'll have to see me to see the video footage. Peter won't let me post it on here hahaha!) and just enjoyed each others company. It was sad to see him go and we look forward to seeing Bobby again soon!
