Well Hello There 2011 : snow, sun, and school

Hello again!
It is 2011 and I am so excited about the new year ahead of me, but first a look back at the last few weeks of 2010. I went home for Christmas and was able to enjoy a full two and a half weeks in my lovely Oregon. I was overjoyed to be home and spent the majority of the break running around with diferent family members and a few close friends. My mom and I took a day and headed to the coast to visit her dad, my Grandpa, and his friend Ruby. It was so fun to spend the trip visiting with my mom and even more fun getting to see my Grandpa for the day. Truth be told, I spent a lot of the time playing with his new boxer puppy, Maggie!! The entire family was able to make it for our annual Christmas Eve traditions, making for an absolutely wonderful Christmas! We started with Bowling, the Nativity before dinner, and of course ended with Santa Claus and opening presents. Christmas Day my dad's parents were able to join us for Christmas dinner. It was their first time having Christmas dinner with us, so it was quite a treat!! The rest of break was spent enjoying time with my family and running around town with my mom. New Years Eve was spent dancing the night away catching up with old friends. I finally got back to Provo last night and started classes bright and early at 8 A.M. this morning!! I really should be unpacking and organizing my life, but I thought I would say hello and share some photos from break :)
