Christmas was wonderful! Loring and I went up to Stony Plain to visit my family over Christmas. It was a little bitter sweet for him because we got to spend Christmas together but it was the first Christmas since his grandfather had passed away.
We had Christmas dinner at my older sister, Shannon's this year, which was a nice change. She is an AMAZING cook and her food lived up to that reputation!
On Boxing Day Loring and I had to return to Lethbridge because I had to work on the 27th. As a trade off for getting the next week off (this past week), I had to work the 27th, which wasn't too bad, I sold a couple Bridesmaids dresses and the day overall was relaxing.
The 28th was when my real "vacation" began and I went to Medicine Hat to spend it with Loring and to help him move into his new apartment. So for my vacation, I spent it cleaning, packing and organizing all his stuff lol, but it was nice to spend some quality time together where neither of us were stressing about work or school.
Yesterday we went skiing at Hidden Valley Ski Resort in Cypress Hills! It was amazing! I haven't been on skis in years and it was so much fun to go with Loring, his brother Victor, and their cousin Rachel.
We skied for a couple hours before these HUGE fog banks rolled in, you couldn't see the chair lift from the chalet it was so dense. We were also all getting tired and my legs were killing me! So we returned to Medicine Hat after that.
Overall, my Christmas vacation has been amazing and I'm NOT looking forward to returning to school on Wednesday! This semester I will be taking very intense courses. Leading Organizational Change, Staffing, Policy and Strategy, Sociology, and Sustainable Tourism.
