Hello friends! Sorry I’ve been a little MIA. Things tend to get a little crazy over here and then when I get a spare minute, all I want to do is spend time with T. With my teaching job I get a little over a week off of work for Christmas break and it has been nothing short of magical. Trent and I have spent our days playing with family, catching up on much needed sleep/staying up way too late watching movies, going on adventures and simply enjoying each other. I have a feeling that going back to school is not going to be very pretty…
Our Christmas was spent bouncing back and forth between families and eating a lot of food. We feel so blessed to have both our families so close and we’re soaking up every minute we can with them.
Yesterday we went and saw The Greatest Showman with my family. It was the second time Trent and I had seen it and we can easily say that we are OBSESSED. Trent and I will blast the soundtrack in the car, sing it as we walk down the street and we’re determined to learn some of the dances. It is such an amazing, uplifting movie, and we HIGHLY recommend everyone go see it. It is definitely worth your time.
After the movie, Trent took me on a short snowmobile ride up Big Cottonwood Canyon and it was a blast! We rode together and explored the beautiful canyon. There is something truly magical about snow covered pines and fresh powder. Utah hasn’t received as much snow as it usually does (which is a definite bummer) but we were lucky enough to find some!
My toes eventually froze (anyone have suggestions for really good snow boots?) and then we drove home to a lazy, perfect night. It was such a fun day and I feel so lucky to be married to Trent. Life truly is a marvelous adventure.
Hope everyone is having a safe and happy Holiday season!
Love, Eliza
