This blog is certainly long overdo but better late than never and I did commit to trying to keep everyone updated on our journey! Over Thanksgiving, Aaron flew from Puerto Rico to Boise where I flew and met him for 5 days. His dad was also able to join us for about 3 days and we were able to have Thanksgiving together, so ironically we all were able to be together for the holiday….which NEVER happens even when you try and plan it. Aaron had to go to Boise for more goggle night time training, so our time together was pretty limited as they usually left around 3 pm in the afternoon and flew until around 3 am…where he would come back to the hotel, sleep until around 11 am….we’d go grab something to eat….hang out for a bit with his dad….then he’d do it all over again! Poor Aaron has been at it since the end of June nonstop. The life of a helicopter pilot! While Aaron flew at night, Mike and I would usually go to a movie across the street at the IMAX theatre. Once Mike left, I went to the movies and one night I went downtown Boise to the Festival of Trees which was pretty cool! Thanksgiving dinner may or may not have been at Burger King…Aaron and I went to a cool Breakfast place where they brought it to us via roller skates! It was a quick trip, but grateful that I got to be with Aaron and his dad….even if only for a short time. Grateful and Thankful….isn’t that what Thanksgiving is all about!












Everything you mention in this blog is very familiar as we have been to these places. Did you go to the Egyptian (Ada) theater right downtown? Where did you stay? Our daughter is the Asst. manager at hotel 43 which is also in that area. Sounds like you had a good time. Rockies is pretty good and makes a good burger also.

We did have a good time…short visit but good. Really didn’t get to do very much and the only time I went downtown Boise was one night by myself. We stayed out by the airport at the Homewood Suites and the IMAX theatre was right next door so Aaron was close to work. We will have to try the burger next time at Rockies!
