Happy New Year!

Happy New Year everybody!! (I was going to say happy belated new year, but it is still a new year so I think that still works.) There are a lot of people thinking up what good new years resolutions would be and wondering if there is any possible way of keeping them. At church yesterday, Pastor Greene was finishing up the Christmas story in his sermon and he said that one of the best new years resolutions we could make was to be like the shepherds. They immediately went to see their king and then they ran out to tell the world what they saw. Even though we cannot go and see Jesus, we can still find him in the Bible and then go tell the world. I hope everyone has a joyful 2012!

Tomorrow our youth group at church is going to FMSC (Feed My Starving Children) to pack food. I know it sounds like I'm there a lot, but I am usually only there with the youth group (once a year) and Caleb's birthday (sometimes my birthday too). I just had an extra one last year, which is fine my me!

So what happened to me in 2011...

I got to go to Alaska to see my Grandparents, Cousins, and my Aunt and Uncle.

My family went to Colorado for my Great Grandma's birthday and to see my Grandma on my Dad's side.

I started a mission trip to Canada for teenage girls at our church, which is still coming together.

I started high school.

That seems like about it, other than getting to spend time with my family and friends. Once again HAPPY NEW YEAR!
