My first semester of school is over! I'm so excited! I ended up passing my Biology class with a C, which was a lot better than how I thought it would go. I am grateful for the new semester coming up, I have some really fun classes that go along with my major!
Two weeks ago, we had an early Christmas! My mom had called me up and told me to get work off we were going to start a new tradition. She told me it was a surprise and that I needed to be home around 10:00 Saturday morning. I got home and my dad was out doing sheep stuff and I was complaining... about why did I have to come early if dad wasn't home! My mom told me to relax and awhile later my dad comes in and says, "Let's open presents!!" We were all way confused. We all got to open one present. I got to go first and I got an iPhone! I love it! Sierra got a dog. Her reaction was hilarious! She started crying and told us we needed to hurry and go pick it up. It was cute. Amelia also got an iPhone and Caleb got his first phone! He was really surprised and we kept getting calls from him randomly. Jacob got a DSI. It was really fun to get to open something early. My parents are amazing! After we were done, we hurry and got ready and left for Logan to pick up Sierra's dog. It was so stinkin' cute! She named her Ruby, she is an Australian Shepherd. After we picked it up, Amelia, my mom, Caleb and I went to Sprint to get our phones all worked out, while Jacob, Sierra, and my dad went to PetSmart to get the dog some things. We were all starving and so we ended up going to eat at Sizzler! It was so fun spending time with my family. I have missed being home and talking with them! The rest of the night we made gingerbread houses and just relaxed! It was a fun day!
I've hung out with my High School friends a lot lately. It has been really fun! We have stayed up way late, slept in the big bed, went to breakfast at one in the morning and just talked and laughed. I have had so much fun! I am so grateful for good friends! We have also went to the temple a coupe times, I am so grateful to have a temple so close and friends that are so encouraging to go!
Also, we have had both our Figgins' and Jensen Christmas party! It's crazy how fast Christmas is coming! For the Jensen party, we had pizza, played Minute to Win-it games, had a spiritual lesson and then opened our gifts from my grandpa. I got a sweatshirt from American Eagle. It was really cute! This year for Christmas my dad and his siblings decided to get my Grandpa an Itouch. He loved it! It was exciting to see him get it! Also, Tasha is pregnant and is due April 29th! I am so excited for her. When me and my mom were Christmas shopping we looked at the baby clothes and found her a cute little baby outfit for her to open. It was so cute and I was way excited to give it to her! Saturday, was our Figgins' Christmas party! This year it was at Trevor and Jill's Stake Center. The fun thing about this year is Kyler was home from his mission! He had just barely got home the day before. It was great to see him, he is such a great example. I think he was a little overwhelmed by all of us, but it was good to have him home. We ate Mexican food, played a left/right game that went along with the Nativity, played basketball/games and did a gift card exchange! It was just a fun, simple party! It is crazy how old everyone is getting. I remember when we did the Nativity and it was a bunch of little kids crying and now everyone just does their own thing, it's kind of a bitter sweet thing! I am loving life and am so grateful for all of my family and the blessing they are in my life!
