Merry Christmas:)



I cannot believe it is Christmas! I guess it is apart of growing older, but I feel like last Christmas was yesterday, I am still excited about the things I got last year haha! What a great Christmas this year. Yesterday I had a great time going to My Aunt Linda's house, It was wonderful to see alot of my cousins and their beautiful children. I look up to alot of my cousins. I am in the younger batch of cousins. I have amazing 6 girl cousins, who are amazing role models and all so beautiful, and 10 boy cousins, I am not really close with any of them, but it is nice to have a big family, especially when most of those cousins have their own families now. It is nice to have family close by. Then today we woke up opened our stockings, and then Grandma and Grandpa came over and we watched a cartoon of Christ Nativity, which was nice. We also sang silent night as a family. I decided today when I have my own family I want to start Christmas morning sharing our testimony of Jesus Christ. Then we opened up Presents! I guess again it is due to getting older, the presents don't excite me anymore. But I got new pjs, and a blowdrier, hair product, lotion, kanye west and leona lewis cd, the books: the glass castle, the secret life of bees, and throstleford, which i wanted, and a calander of the temples, slippers, mexican train(game), scrabble and then I got a great surprise gift from scott, iowa pajama pants:) scarf, horse shoe lol, nauvoo brick, which was great:) It made me happy. I guess this best gift was to see my siblings faces open their gifts, being with my Grandparents, I know there might not be to many more of those, kanye west cd, i know not all of you like it, i think it is soul, chill, and good beats, and talking to the most amazing Scott:) It was so great, last year I talked to him, and I didn't cry( those who know me know thats a shock) but when I got in my car I pulled over and sobbed, yes not cried sobbed, thinking I have a lot longer of this left. This year I talked to him, laughed with him, oh how i love his laugh and his voice, and got off the phone smiling so big, he makes me so happy got in my car, thanked Heavenly Father for him in my life, and drove home smiling so big, thinking I get to see him so soon:) Next year, i will have him with me:)So today was a great day, I love my family so much, I love Scott:) I leave so soon, I leave Jan 3 for Mexico! I am so excited!Well Merry Christmas here are the highlights of the big day!

Me in my Iowa Gear from the Best Boyfriend ever, I just hope this doesnt mean he wants me to live there...too cold! Here is billie Mae with me, wearing her new Ariel Goggles that she wears 24/7 oh funny story about the goggles, So Billie went with me to mail a package out and was wearing these lovely goggles, and a man( late 20's early 30's) was in the line and asked her if she was goin swimming,, she replied no silly its cold outside, he then said are you going flying, she said no silly and smiled. I then dropped a letter and bent over to pick it up with my left hand...no ring....and she slapped me on the butt, I said " Billie Mae, please stop" she did it again" I said. one....(felt like a mom)" and she stopped, the man said" you better be nice for Christmas" I smiled at him, then we went to leave and he said, Make sure you tell remind your Mommy to have merry christmas and tell her how pretty she is, and she said" okay" thinking her mom not sister!!! and he smiled i smiled and walked out!!! that is why a 21 year old should not have a young looking 4 year old as a sister! Men think I am a young skanky single mom!!!oh boy!!!!

Your Christmas sounded wonderful! I'm glad it was.
That's a really good idea for a tradition to start with your future family. I may steal it.
I love Kanye West!
My dad really likes John Wayne and would be envious of your dad's shirt.
I'm glad you got to talk to your missionary! :)
People think various younger children that I go out in public with are my kids, too. Awesome. haha.
