Happy New Year!

HAPPY NEW YEAR everyone!!!! I hope everyone had a great New Years Day. So let's do a update.
CHRISTMAS: I spent Christmas Eve and Christmas Day at my Aunt Barbara's house. On Christmas eve, I watched Elf and then we went to my Uncle Brian's parents house for dinner. It was fantastic and I loved spending the time there. We then went back to Springville and my cousins opened their new ornament and I opened up my pajamas. I love traditions! We then started to watch the Santa Claus on tv but we didn't last very long so we all went to bed. 
On Christmas morning we got up and had pancakes and then went to church. It was a GREAT Christmas program. The whole time my youngest cousin Joely was counting down the minutes that we could go home to open presents. :) So after church we went home and opened presents! It was so fun to see how excited everyone got! After presents, Tanner, my cousin called and we talked to him for about an hour. Then Hayden and I watched Psych (he got seasons 1-4 on dvd for Christmas). Then it was game playing (we all got new games) and Christmas dinner, which was FANTASTIC! Overall it was a great weekend!
NEW YEARS EVE: I went to a party that my neighbors had and it was so FUN. We played Sour Apples to Apples and then had a dance party! So AWESOME! Then we counted down and blew noise makers, shot fireworks and had sparklers. It was such a fun night! 

So I have been thinking about New Years Resolutions. I have never done any resolutions but I think I am going to this year.
1. Pay Tithing, I have struggled with this principle for a little while but I am going to do it every pay check!
2. Go to church every week. I like to try and make excuses some weeks why I don't want to go and I know that it is just Satan so I am stopping him!
3. Work on Scripture Study and Personal Prayer. I need to be more consistent with these 2 essential things. 
4. Go home twice this year!
5. Do my A-Z Reading :)
So I think this is good for now. I am going to work on these goals! I will give an update periodically.
