Christmas Day 2007

Well Christmas Day is here. It came so fast. It's weird how time goes by faster and faster the older you get. Counting down the 25 days until Christmas when I was little made me so frustrated. Now it's like I had to pray for more days this month to get ready for Christmas.

  • I was sad that Gina and Sam left me to go be down in St. George with their famlies,
  • And at first we had some mishaps with our Christmas presents this morning.

  • But Gina got to talk on the phone with her brother BJ who's on a mission today,
  • I got to return the jacket from American Eagle that my mom thought was a coat with a coat from Hollister that I really want that's half-off,
  • Return the Pirates 3 DVD that was blu-ray so it doesn't work on our DVD player and for a normal one...
  • and Mia and Noah are happy with their gifts.

And back to the story about Michelle. Donating that money during advisory everyday and having to pay when I snuck into Mrs. Paxton's advisory with Gina was all really annoying. But when I actually got to see how she reacted to the present that she's been needing but her family didn't have enough money for...it made you want to squee for joy. Love really does make the world go round. Just knowing the people around me are happy makes me happy. I have to go read the books I got for Christmas now...hope you all got what you wanted and hope you know that I'm thinking about you today. Love ya!
