So excited to pick Ty up from the airport at 9:00 AM. He had to be at the Eugene airport 4:30 so he arrived in Boise looking rumpled, scruffy, tired, and good! We took him straight to Blue Sky Bagels for breakfast. Then we made the rounds dropping off gifts and shopping. By 3:00 PM we had finished shopping, had taken care of some returns, seen grandparents, had shown Ty Stacey and Mike's new house, bought him new clothes and set him up with some big tubes to roll out his muscles on. It was wonderful having him captive with us for 6 whole hours. What fun!
Ty changed into some of his new clothes, and looked so good. Then he was off to catch-up with friends. You'd think families would want to be together on Christmas Eve, but he was out until about 2:00 in the morning with other families that love him.
This is the first Christmas Eve in many years that we didn't have the Cowley Bunco Christmas Party to attend. We were really quite stunned by the cancelling of it due to everyone being sick. Terry and I found ourselves alone in a quiet house on Christmas Eve. We had thought about taking in a movie or going bowling. We also considered going out for Chinese food. In the end, we went to Hastings and rented White Christmas. I love that movie and all the music. It's long too. We watched the movie with popcorn and hot chocolate. Everything was wrapped and ready, so we retired to bed at about 10:00. It turned out to be a happy Christmas Eve all day long.
