Yay for Europe!

So it’s been a few months since we got home but as always I have been distracted from blogging by life. Europe was so fun. It so cool to be there in the winter with all the snow; I say all the snow but there was at max a few inches. And even though there wasn’t much snow it was still my first cold weather experience. I know that is hard for most of you to believe but that is the longest I have ever spent in a cold place. It was a great adventure to me even though Aaron constantly teased me about my excitement. I would exclaim silly things all the time, such as “It’s like the Chronicles of Narnia!” or “Aaron, it’s snowing!!!!” We got to see so many awesome sites. It’s fun to watch TV and say “We’ve been there” (followed by knuckles). I don’t have the space or attention span to upload all the pictures to the blog but you can go topicasaweb.com/boushley to check them out. The really pretty or artistic ones Aaron took … I’m almost jealous. Oh ok I am jealous but at least someone in our family is. Maybe another time I will write my favorite memories but now my mind is occupied by other,less happy remeberings. I will try to explain those another time as well.

I’m Sooooooo Excited!!!!!!

Ok there are so many reasons to be happy and excited, let me tell you a few. I am DONE with finals! Yay! Some of them were unexpectedly difficult so it’s nice to have them out of the way. Aaron also finished finals yesterday and played hookie from work and played with me all day! We went to the temple and Golden Spoon (My most favorite low sugar dessert) then borrowed a tree stand from my absent parents (thanks mom and dad, even though you didn’t know :) . I did my visiting teaching and came home and watched Alias all evening with my super fun hubby (I could probably do a whole post on this alone, I love this show, thanks Sara Castillo for letting us borrow it). I had made enough lasagna on Sunday to feed a large family so we still had leftovers so I didn’t have to make dinner. It was a great day. Back to why I’m so excited. It’s almost CHRISTMAS!!!! I know what you’re thinking “Elena you are an adult Christmas isn’t really fun again until you have kids.” Well you’re wrong on two accounts: one, I am not an adult; I may be tall but don’t let that fool you. Two, Christmas is still fun as a grown up if you make it fun. I love to give presents, especially when I come up with a good one that I don’t think the person will guess. I am so excited to give Aaron his present it is going to rock! So if those two reasons are not enough to be excited about I have another. Are you ready? ……. I am going to EUROPE! In approximately 3 weeks from today. AHHHHH! Now that school is done I can give this trip the proper attention it deserves! Isn’t it so exciting?!?!? I know you’re jealous, it’s ok those are natural feelings. If you comment I’ll bring you back something, just to make you feel better. I will try my hardest to do a really really long post about our trip but I make no promises because school starts shortly after we get home.

Merry Christmas Everyone!

Sickly

So Aaron has been sick for the past few days and recently complained (and rightly so) that he never got sick before we got married. So I was thinking about it and I came up with a explanation: Swimkids. What does that have to do with it you ask? Well for the first year or so that I worked at Swimkids I was sick all the time. And I mean ALL the time. I’m kinda sickly to begin with so that meant about once a month I was down for the count with some illness or other. Well now Aaron is being exposed to the germs that I am bringing home from Swimkids that oddly enough I’ve grown rather immune to (exciting for me bad for Aaron). So now the sickly one is healthy and the healthy one is sick. My how the tables have turned. This does exclude my built-in illnesses that I can never escape. So maybe the tables haven’t turned. So close!
