Merry Christmas Friends!

I love Christmas, it is my favorite holiday. Not only because of the wonderful presents but it's the whole idea of giving to others and remembering Christ. I have never felt closer to my Savior. After all I have gone through this last year and all the trials and even the happy moments, I can honestly say that it has allowed me to grow closer to my Savior and feel the Spirit even more. I still have my weak moments, many of them but I love that I can return to church each week and partake of the Sacrament and remember my Savior. So even though this is Christmas and presents are usually the best and funnest gifts, for me my greatest gift was having the opportunity to grow closer to Christ. I am giong to continue to grow even closer if I can this new year and go to the temple. I can't wait for that. But, I want to let all of you to know that I love all of you and appreciate your friendship and sticking with me through all the tough times. I will never be able to repay you for all you have done. So, Merry Christmas and well, seeya in the new year.
