Trans Siberian Orchestra

For Christmas my parents take us to the Trans Siberian Orchestra concert in Boise. We went Monday, the 10th. It was just as amazing as last year!!! They did their Christmas program and then played various music the rest of the night. It was a three hour concert! No one does concerts that long anymore!! I loved it.

My cousin, Katie, watched the kids for us...and did a GREAT job! Thank you soooo much Katie!!! We left Monday afternoon and we didn't get home until 8:30 p.m. Tuesday. We had a wonderful get-a-way and got some Chrostmas shopping done too. Our new favorite store is World Trade Markets. We love that store. We also ate at Ramano's Macaroni Grill for the first time and LOVED it, too. We were able to meet up with Harley, Troy's old "boss" from insurance, and his wife and my good friend, Kelly, and their kids Brayden and Kayla for lunch. Then Kelly went to the mall with us and we found the boys' Christmas outfits for church at the Children's Place. I LOVE that store, too. Wow, Boise has so much more shopping than here! We then met up with my Grandma Smith, brother Jaden and the 'rents at the cannery. My mom gave us some food storage to go with our Christmas. Thank you!!!!

In short, we had a great time and we loved every minute of it! A HUGE thank you to my mom and dad for taking us to the concert...a HUGE thank you to Troy for getting his work done super fast so that we could go...a HUGE thank you to Katie for watching our kids...and a HUGE thank you to the Trans Siberian Orchestra for putting on one of the best concerts I have ever been to. We will be back next year!!!!
