I couldn't wait to get back home for Spring Break. This semester has been sort of hard for me to get through, and I was so excited to spend time with my family. To kick of my Spring Break, we went to get burgers at the Habit. This was my first time going and it was actually really good!
I also got to make homemade salsa with my grandparents. It was so fun to learn how to learn about the process and spend time with them. This was definitely the best salsa we've ever made!
Another highlight of my week was getting to support Sydney with her SBO elections. She had to perform in front of the entire school with other students who were running for SBO. She did such a great job and I know she has been planning her skit since she started high school. She did it despite the fact that she had cysts that ruptured on her ovaries the day before. And she made it! She is one of the six students who made it through to lead the whole school! I was so proud of her-- she deserves this more than anyone I know.
Her sweet friend Gracie was so sweet and brought over dinner to our family when she found out that Sydney was at the Emergency Room the night before her skit. It was the best Mexican food I've ever had. She even brought cereal and unique sodas for every family member.
This week we also surprised my Aunt Rina for her 50th birthday. It was so fun to surprise her. She is one of the most selfless and humble people I have ever met. It was such a great experience to bless her and serve her as she does so much for others.
And if it wasn't enough, I got to listen to Syd end the week with a fantastic lesson. She was asked to speak for our Stake Women's Conference with two other speakers. She talked about our light as women and how we can use the light of Christ to bring others back. She did such a great job and I was so proud of her accomplishments this past week.
Overall this week was a time for me to spend time with my family and ground myself before heading back to the craziness of school. I am so grateful that my family members can double as my best friends. They mean the world to me, and I can't imagine life without them.
