It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas

I just turned in my last assignment for this semester and it feels so good! We leave this weekend to travel home for the holidays for a much needed vacation. Even though I haven't posted for a while, there isn't really a significant update, so I'll leave you with one of my favorite quotes:

"Perhaps the greatest charity comes when we are kind to each other, when we don't judge or categorize someone else, when we simply give each other the benefit of the doubt or remain quiet. Charity is accepting someone's differences, weaknesses, and shortcomings; having patience with someone who has let us down; or resisting the impulse to become offended when someone doesn't handle something the way we might have hoped. Charity is refusing to take advantage of another's weakness and being willing to forgive someone who has hurt us. Charity is expecting the best of each other." --Elder Marvin J. Ashton

Merry Christmas to all of you!
