Okay...so maybe it's been almost three months since i've blogged last. But in my defense this past semester was a killer on Ty guy and I. Well, since I have so much to catch ya'll up on, this is going to be a long blog post. So try and stay awake!
For Halloween we decided to get a little creative, so as we were watching TV one night, the sun drop commercial came on (and if you haven't seen it, I highly recommend you check it out!), so we got our costumes and let me just say we did a pretty dang good job. So many people loved our idea. We hung out with family and some friends, ate too much candy and food, and laughed a lot! Ty had a soccer game that night, and unfortunately it was their last. They played really good, but lost. So close to being in the final game. But they still had a lot of fun!
For thanksgiving, we got to go back to sunny Florida! We got to stay for a week, and just relax and enjoy spending time with my family and enjoy the warmer weather! This was the first Thanksgiving I have ever had that wasn't at my house (at least that I can remember), and it was nice to not have to cook a whole lot, we ( and by we I mean me haha) just made a couple side dishes and a dessert and just got to stuff our faces! When I said that I cooked most of the food, I say that because my momma sprained her ankle two days before and she couldn't do much. If you know my mom, you know that she was going crazy not being able to do much. She actually got super frustrated that she couldn't make anything for thanksgiving. But it's okay, it was good practice for me, since one day I will be making Thanksgiving at my house when we grow up:) Except the fact that my mom never measures anything, so I have to guess and hope it turns out right....and just so you know, it all turned out great! We got to meet my new little dog brother, and take Thor dog on an airplane for the first time, and he did great. Only because we cheated and gave him sleeping pills! But enjoyed every minute with my family, and we love visiting them as often as we can!
Now it is Christmas time and I am in LOVE with this time of year. I think I got even more excited about it because we were able to decorate our own home, and start our own traditions. And can I just say, that how in the HECK is Christmas next week? Yeah, I don't know either. But it is crazy. This year has gone by so fast! But we are excited for what the future years have in store for us. This is going to be my first Christmas away from home, and it really hasn't settled well with me just yet. I am beyond grateful though that we have Tyson's family so close so that we are able to spend the holidays with them. I already can tell though that this is going to be a great one. I am excited to see Ty's families traditions! But I am SUPER bummed that we may not have a white Christmas. It has snowed, but a lot of it has already melted.
Well, Fall semester is over. We are now just working and trying to figure out how to keep busy since we don't have homework, and just enjoying life! We hope that everyone has a wonderful and safe holiday and remember the true meaning of Christmas and think about the feelings that you get this time of year and be grateful for all that you have!
Love, Ty and Jess
