My boyfriend is awesome

I've been at my parents house in ID this last week before Christmas and I go home on Christmas Day. So Dave and I aren't going to be able to spend Christmas Day together, because he left for his parents house in CT today. So he sent me something special to my parents house just to let me know he was thinking of me. He had been planning it for a week ahead of time, too, which is awesome! He was so sneaky, asking me if I liked pears, which I thought he was just asking me for the sake of asking me. I thought maybe someone at work was offering them to him and he wanted to make sure I liked them too. Nope, he was secretly planning to send me some.


He sent me a Harry and David fruit and nut gift tower. The bottom layer has their Royal Riviera® Pears, the next up has Crisp Mountain Apples, the next up has Mixed Nuts, the next up has Chocolate Truffles and the very top one has Bing Cherry Chocolates. It was go good. The chocolates were off the chain and the pears were so juicy and fragrant. I feel like I work for Harry and David now in my description, but I really don't. The only props that are going out here are to Dave for getting me this gift. It was a great gift.

Thanksgiving

was a blast! We flew in to SLC Thurs morning and came back Tues morning. In that time we ate good food, met a TV star, hung out with my nieces and nephews and sister and parents, got to introduce Dave to more family and some college friends, and it was just a lot of fun.

We saw David Boreanaz AKA Angel, at the car rental return when we were picking up our car. I just couldn't decide if that was really him or not and while I was trying to make up my mind, he was unpacking his car. By the time I finally decided it really was him, he was on his way back to the terminal, but I made Dave go over and talk to him. But he didn't want to do autographs, cause he had to catch a flight with his dog, and he probably just didn't want to be bothered. But he wasn't rude, so that was cool.

But anyway, here are some of the pictures from our trip. I'm going to try to do this all in order...


My baby with my cousins baby.









This is the view from my aunt's house in Riverton, UT













This is in Provo, near BYU. There's a great view from the mountain.












These are some views of Pocatello, where I had lived for 5 years.





























This is at my old campus, Idaho State University.
















This is in Pocatello when we were on our way back to UT. It started snowing that afternoon. Our first snow this year was in Idaho.





















And this is in Orem having dinner with one of my good college friends Tiffany.
