wrapping up 2010..

Sooo i started this blog on thanksgiving and told myself since i stalk so many others that i should make my own incase i had fans.. (im probably talking to myself since im new with this but oh well.. or just my best friends it's fine.) but i know i will be happy if i blog more often since it'll be a little journal to keep forever, awh. I've really enjoyed this holiday season though with all the cookies, lights, gingerbread house making, holiday movies, ugly christmas sweater parties, bonfires, and dinners with friends. This season always make me more grateful for my amazing family, friends and the gospel in my life. I hope i can keep the desire to give and serve with me all year (that's gonna be one of my new years resolutions) but a lot has happened since thanksgiving like my sister nicki getting married to jayson and my sister kara and her husband jon having a baby girl Scarlett Renee Barnes-yay! i'm an aunt! i love it and i love her. then christmas came out of nowhere! so this season was busy but a good busy. next thing is i'm moving to glendale to start hair school!! yay finally going to be doing what i dream of :) i'm so indecisive i've been deciding if i should go to hair school since sophmore year... yeah you heard right, sophmore year of high school. so this is a big step for me and also my best friend/lover/other half/brother... is coming home from serving a mission in colombia!! january 21st will be here out of nowhere :) welp here's some pictures of these few months. xo
