Christmas in 308

Christmas came early for my roommates and I!! We decided to draw names this year and open presents our last night together before moving home. It was really fun to shop for each other and then to watch each other's reactions. It was a night filled with laughter and fun! I love these girls to death and will miss them greatly now that the semester is over. I am sure next semester will be just as much fun though!! Here are some pictures for your viewing pleasure:

This is Katie and I ... just being awesome :D

Katie got an Edward doll and popcorn!!

Bobbi got a puppy and princess pillowcases!!

Elishia got a scarf and two pair of mittens!!

I got super soft pajama pants!!

And Jessie got a horse calendar and tissues (cuz she blows her nose a lot)!!

I love this time of the year and the joy that comes when we give each other gifts! Make sure to remember the true meaning of Christmas and to be grateful everyday for Christ and the sacrifice that He made for each one of us!!! Enjoy the holiday and the time spent with your family ... LOVE YOU ALL!!!

FINALS WEEK ...

So ... I don't know why I'm blogging! I should be studying right?? Well I'm waiting for my group to study science so I might as well do some updating.

It's finals week here at BYU-Idaho so you'll find:

• stressed out students
• lack of sleep
• junk food for breakfast
• printers that break at the very last second
• and lots of packing so we can all go home :)

I am VERY excited to be done with school until April ... basically it's going to be a party!! Actually I'm just going to work and spend time with my mommy. It'll be way fun though! I'm looking forward to not having homework and being able to relax for awhile.

Christmas is only 11 days away and that is cause for celebration in and of itself! Basically I love Christmas and the feeling that it brings. It is a great time to remember what the true meaning of Christmas is ... this is the time of the year that we must remember Christ and what he has done for us. I am so thankful for His presence in my life. I love my family with all my heart and am looking forward to spending time with them this holiday season! I hope you all have an amazing Christmas and remember its true meaning :) LOVE YOU!!!
