We just spent a busy, yet relaxing Christmas week mostly up in Saratoga with some time out in Boston as well. We drove up Tuesday night to Saratoga, got the last of our Christmas shopping and some other errands done on Wednesday. We just hung out at Ryan’s parents house the rest of Wednesday and wrapped presents for the rest of the night. Thursday was Ryan’s family’s Christmas celebration and we went over to his Aunt Karen and Uncle George’s house for a huge meal and some presents. It was great seeing everyone. I think that Ryan would agree that we both ate way too much, but it’s the holidays, I think you get a free pass to eat whatever you want. We spent Christmas day at Ryan’s parents’ house and opened some more presents. We got an awesome video camera, which will be great for our wedding week, so we were both psyched about that. Christmas night we went out with a bunch of friends and had a great time, even if we stayed out a little too late.
The next day we packed up everything again and headed to Boston. We hit some bad weather on the way out, so it took a while to get there, but once there we saw my parents, brother and grandmother. We had some more good food and opened some more presents. After a relaxing Sunday morning going out to brunch and watching some football on the couch we packed up for the third time that week and headed back home to the city.
Ryan has had to work some this week so we had to be back. I was sad to be going back. I’m getting used to the city, but still really miss the space and peace and quiet of being up in Saratoga and even in Boston. I know we’re not here long-term, but I don’t think I’ll miss it much when it’s finally time to move. We’ve had some great experiences here and I’m sure we’ll have more, but it’s just not for me. Luckily Ryan feels the same so our long-term plans are to go somewhere we can have a lot more space and a lot less noise, traffic and people.
We’ve updated other parts of this site, we added the places we registered, Macy’s and Bed Bath and Beyond. We added some information to some of the other pages as well, so check those out as well.
Hope everyone has had a great holiday season so far and has a wonderful New Year!
