Here are all the delicious tidbits you've been missing:
Thanksgiving
We spent Thanksgiving with Ty's fabulous family in Oregon. Other than the good times with family and of course Claudia's delicious cooking (that lady...wow), one of the highlights was a hike around Silver Falls.
We also got to star in a commercial for Ty's mom's salon. Yes, I was on TV twice last year. It was, however, the first time (that I know of) that Ty has been naked on TV. Yep, that hot man you see in the spa tub and getting a massage is my hunka burning love.

Christmas
We spent Christmas in good ol' Tejas and had a fabulous time. My parents always try so hard to plan so many fun things for us, and they never disappoint. This year, they got us rooms in the Great Wolf Lodge--a hotel with a huge indoor water park and just about the most crazy fun water slides ever. Ty and I just kept looking at each other and saying, "This is so fun."
Christmas is always so great there--so many fun traditions that make the holiday really special. My family loves to have Ty there for the cookie decorating because he always comes up with some original, rather impressive theme. Last time was Scooby Doo; this year was Batman, complete with Batman, Joker, and Two-Face. It is no wonder why I married this man...his talents just go on and on.
You'll notice that Ty got to wear my mom's old pink robe for the nativity. Very flattering! In case you can't tell, I am a sheep. After all, there are no small parts, only small actors (if you can tell me what movie that quote is from, then you have something to feel seriously good about!).
Everything Else
Other than that, we are just plugging along in what we hope will be our last few months in Utah. In the meantime, we are just enjoying the beautiful winter here; especially all the snow. (If you believe that, then you don't know me at all!!) Ty's got a very busy semester, along with all the job hunting and interviewing. We've received one good offer and expect to get a few more over the next month or so. Even though he's busy, he managed to give me one heck of a Valentine's Day--beginning with roses, a "quest" for my gifts, brunch, dinner, a movie, dessert, and a "spa night." If you don't have a Ty, you should get one. Seriously.

look, you had a lot of fun! i saw the video and that looked like fun too. i want that jet water thing to work me over.
I just got a closer look at the nativity pic... You really married up. just kidding. Ty looks good in pink.
Woops! I coveted. Sorry. ;) I guess I just can't get that one night in Old Mill out of my mind! Just JOKING! But seriously Steph, you should consider a career in television because you look great on camera. You looked like a natural because you were so at ease, but that could just be because you were at a spa!
P.S. Shawn and Ty are definitely related! Their creativity when it comes to decorating cookies is simply out of this world. Though, I have to admit, Ty's execution is MUCH better.
Yeah- a new post! It's fun to hear what you guys have been up to. It looks like lots of fun with your family- that lodge you stayed in sounds awesome!
That spa commercial is hilarious. You two are the perfect customers. While you are job hunting, focus on Portland. It doesn't have very much snow. -Maile
