Hi guys. So...Christmas break was the best ever, and I haven't been able to share all of the amazing things I was able to experience. It was SO nice to be home for a couple weeks to enjoy the warm weather, time with family, friends, and Andrew. Here's a little taste of my amazing time in California!

My dad turned 60! I always love being home for his birthday! I also love my dad with all of my heart. He is not only a great role model, provider, and example of Jesus Christ, he is also one of my best friends. I feel so privileged to be his daughter and to have been able to spend the day with him!

This was my 22nd birthday, and the day I was endowed in the Redlands, California Temple. Words cannot accurately describe what a special experience this was. I love the temple so much the peace it brings. Families can truly be forever! I couldn't have asked for a better birthday present than to make sacred covenants with my Heavenly Father!

Also, Haley made me an obnoxious Barbie cake. I LOVED IT!
Also, SHOUT OUT TO MY BFF, MARKI! She has always been there for me on my BIRTHDAY for I don't know how long. We are lifelong BFFS.

I LOVE CHRISTMAS EVE! Every year get together with my mom's family and have a huge family celebration. We eat, sing, and celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ. I am so thankful for traditions and for my family. Oh, and for food.

Christmas DAY! We had the cutest matching jammies and lots of fun opening presents. Later we went to my grandparents house and spent time with more family!

Family time! Spent the afternoon playing with Tom and Hilary's kids.
Andrew came to visit my family for a few days. We went to a Thai restaurant which he loved. I feel like these pictures capture us pretty perfectly. He's the best!
Los Angeles Temple
Andrew and I were able to take a trip to LA to visit the Temple. As a youth I remember going to the temple and thinking how beautiful and how big it was. It is just as beautiful and big today. I love the temple and the happiness, peace, and hope it brings to my life.
I couldn't have asked for a better Christmas break with my amazing family, friends, and boyfriend. I am truly blessed!
