The Greatest Gift!

FINALS ARE OVER!  I have now successfully completed the worst semester ever! (well, there is actually a good chance I wasn't so successful in some of my classes) I took some hard classes, and am SO relived that I'm finished! I'm now 2 classes away from being finished with my generals!  HIP HIP HOORAY!  And now I finally have some spare time to do some bloggin'

Welp, Christmas is swiftly approaching and I'm so excited!  I love the Christmas season!  Being home, the lights, the snow, (oh wait, what snow?) the music, the movies, the hot chocolate, the gingerbread houses, the decorations, and the warm holiday spirit; Everything about Christmas just makes me happy! 

However, my favorite thing about Christmas is being able to celebrate the birth and life of my Savior, Jesus Christ.  I'm so grateful for his love and willingness to give the greatest gift of all, to sacrifice His perfect life for me.  For being the perfect example I have to look up to, and who I strive to be like.  And the comfort it brings me to know that what I have gone through, am going through, and will go through, He understands completely and is ready and waiting for me to ask for His help.  I couldn't have asked for a better Christmas gift.
"He is the Son of God. He is
the author of our salvation."
--Thomas S. Monson


Merry Christmas everyone!
