Dan is still busy working as a software engineer at HP. This year, he also raked yards for Rake Up Boise and volunteered for the Hour of Code, helping kids learn how to code at a Treasure Valley elementary school.
I spent much of the summer rehearsing and performing in the Music Theatre of Idaho’s production of Oklahoma, in which I had the honor of portraying the role of Laurey Williams alongside a very talented cast of actors.
In between school and community productions, Dan and I were able to take a road trip through Wyoming, Montana, and South Dakota. We saw Yellowstone, Mount Rushmore, Devil’s Tower, and did some mountain biking in Big Sky. (We almost ran across a bear! I’m not exaggerating! For a more detailed account, see "Time For Another Mountain Biking Post.")
Dan and I participated in the Race to Feed the Hungry over Thanksgiving break, while visiting his family in Eastern Idaho.
As I write this annual card of ours, Dan and I are trying to warm up after running in the single digits with my elementary school students in Boise’s YMCA Christmas Run. Brrr!
So far this holiday season, we plan to take a few cross-country skiing trips, and Dan will probably go snowboarding. The snow has been good in the mountains the last couple of days! We also have tickets to the Idaho Potato Bowl since Dan’s alma mater, the University of Idaho, is playing in it this year.
Have a wonderful Christmas and a Happy New Year!
Love,
Becky and Dan
