Christmas city USA

Josh and I spent our first Christmas together in Christmas City, USA aka Rupert, ID with my family. It was so nice and relaxing. We missed all our cute nephews and niece and everyone else, but we loved being with Mom, Dad, Bryce, and Kevin. We ate loads of good food, watched some high school basketball, played lots of cards and dominos, played hand and foot at our friends the Kobayashi's, and loved spending time with our family. One night we went out to dinner at Upper Crust, a family favorite, and saw this light show. There were about 4 songs and they were all pretty cool.
One day Josh, Bryce, Sever(Bryce's friend) and I went snowboarding at Pomerelle. I kind of didn't like it at the beginning and I was too scared to carve because I thought I'd fall too much, but once I stopped being so awkward and actually started carving again, it was more fun.

Here's some pictures of our trip.

Mom & Dad opening a present Josh & I gave them. It was a picture frame that had all of their kids & grandkids and spelled out family. It looks cooler than that description sounded. Promise.
Josh and I opening our most favorite gift EVER.
Dad was so excited for this present. Kev gave him Inception and Dad had been talking about it earlier that day and how much he couldn't wait for it to get on netflix.
My cute mom!
Spending almost 10 days in Rupert was so fun and we loved it! Thanks Mom and Dad for making it so fun, playing a billion games with us, and being such wonderful parents! We love you guys!
