I loved being home with my family for the holidays. It was wonderful. I'm sure you guys don't watch all these videos I post. I totally understand. I'm sorry if you're sick of them. I just love making videos like this. While I was home I made 6 videos, 3 of which I co-edited with my brother Steven, who also does videos. It was a ton of fun. I also really loved holding my new nephew. He's so cute. Much of the break was spent playing Mario Cart with my brother and nephew. I'm still not that great, but I'm definitely improving!

I can't express how grateful I am for all the blessings I've received this past year. I've done many more things than I ever imagined I would this past year-losing about 27 pounds being one of them.

I've been thinking a lot about how merciful God is in blessing me with so many things despite my imperfections. I've wondered how it is I can ask for more blessings, including a best friend and husband, when He has already blessed me with so much. I'm definitely a beggar like is talked about in Mosiah 4 in The Book of Mormon. I am in so great a debt to Him and nothing I can do will ever repay that debt. But then I keep asking for more!! But I know that He commands us to ask and He promises we will receive. It's all so amazing to me. I know He hears my prayers. I want to be a better disciple to show my gratitude for all the blessings He has given me. I'm looking forward to another amazing year!
