I got this idea from a friend of mine and thought it was great! These are my 10 favorite ornaments from off my tree and why. (I'll apologize now for the terrible picture quality.)
1) This would be my absolute favorite ornament. I got it for Christmas last year. It's me! Ha ha. Fits me perfectly! Blonde curly hair, crown, jewlery, pink pageant dress... Yep that's me alright!
2) This is another ornament that I love. It's Clara holding her Nutcracker. My grandma bought it for me as a memory of when I was a ballerina in the Nutcracker. Cute huh?
3) This is my darling dog Levi's ornament. I love him so much that this had to be included in my top 10! Looks just like him!
4) The snowman ornament I made out of a lightbulb in second grade. I was very proud of it! Still makes me smile.
5) I put this one on here because my mom and I both made one and they were a PAIN. Seriously. I have never made something that was harder than this. But at least it turned out pretty good!
6) My sparkly Santa hat! Enough said!
7) My baby's first Christmas ornament. It's pretty cute. (:
8) This ornament was passed down from my great grandma! It's so pretty I just love it!
9) We got this ornament this year from my grandma. (I'm pretty sure we get all our good ornaments from her.) I thought it was pretty funny. (:
10) Yeah, I made this one too! In fourth grade though. It's almost broken but I remember being way excited about making this one too. I loved the bells!

Christmas 2010!
I love Christmas and it's always kinda sad once it's over. But this year was great! I got so many awesome things! Including:
♥ A new Nikon camera
♥ Kinect for xbox (Incredible.)
♥ Tons of crown themed decorations for my room
♥ A new crimper
♥ An adorable dress frame
♥ Money!
♥ Jewlery
♥ Other things.... (:
Plus, now we have an iPad! It's pretty much amazing. Just saying.
Christmas Eve night was terrible once again. I seriously can't sleep at all! I woke up at 4 in the morning after being asleep for about three hours and realized my iPod was gone. I woke up the rest of my siblings to help me find it and then no one could go back to sleep. We had to sit there for three hours before going to wake up my parents!
For the annual Christmas Eve program at my Grandma's I performed Silent Night and a beautiful arrangement of How Great Thou Art that I am learning. It was fun. We also did our traditional soup and chili dinner, which I personally am not a huge fan of ha ha, and performed the Nativity. Then we went home and opened our Christmas Eve present which for me this year was a new robe with crowns on it and Princess written on the back. I love it.
I loved Christmas this year! It's such a great season! I hope you all had a great Christmas too!!

Baking the Day Away
For our Christmas neighbor gifts this year we made sugar cookies and frosting.
Wow it took a long time! We had to make 130 cookies and decorate them too.
It was a fun day though. Doing neighbor gifts is awesome. I love it and look forward to it every year!

Frodsham Family Farms
Isaac turned 12 on the day we went as a youth group to Frodsham Farms to do service. So it was his first activity. It's weird to think that my brother has the priesthood and is a deacon. Ha ha. Well Frodsham Farms is always an interesting experience. Basically the Frodsham family spends every year collecting donations of food, clothes, blankets, toys, and other things to donate to families in need in December. As a host, you get assigned to a family and take them around helping them to collect what they want. This year was a little strange. My family had Blackberrys that they were texting on the whole time. Of course I don't know the whole story but doesn't it seem a little strange that they can afford to pay four monthly cell phone bills but not food? I don't know... But it was a good experience to see so many family in need and realize how truly blessed I am.

More Christmas Fun!
On Saturday night, we went out to dinner with my Dad's parents to celebrate Isaac's 12th birthday. It was basically terrible. Ha ha. We went to Iggy's and I think the waitress must have thought I was a huge brat. I wasn't trying to be though! First, I ordered a Dr. Pepper. She brought it to me but when I drank it, it was WAY watered down and pretty much tasted terrible. So I told her and she brought me some sprite. THEN I ordered Mac N' Cheese and when I tried that, it tasted like weird vegetable cheese type thing. Just nasty. None of my siblings liked it either. So I told her again and she brought me mini corn dogs from off of the kids menu. Ha ha it all turned out ok! It was just a little crazy! Nevertheless, it was fun to see my grandparents and catch up with them.
Then Sunday morning, I got to go to the David Archuletta and Mormon Tabernacle Choir concert. I'm not exactly the biggest fan of David Archuletta but he did really good and I enjoyed myself. Even if I had to wait in the rain for 30 minutes without a ticket. (Seriously, the set up was crazy. I think they could have been more organized. And some of the people working at the Conference center were really mean. But that's ok, it all turned out great.) It was a good way to begin this Christmas week.
I am loving not having to worry about school for another 14 days! This break was MUCH needed.
