I just got my LSAT score--a 158. We're really happy about it. I've had higher scores on practice tests, but I've had lots of lower ones as well. That's good enough to get us into about 153 of the 186 schools, so we're quite happy. It's really a blessing for us. I've been studying like a Chinese kid for the last year.
Now we have to decide where to go to school... the tough part.

We had a great Christmas week. Emily got a sewing machine from her parents that she's dying to try out and lots of crafty stuff from my parents. She's been sewing, quilling, card-making, looming, etc. There's no stopping the craftiness! I got a tripod from Emily's parents and D&C study books from my parents. I've been reading the D&C books quite a bit. I'm really excited for SS this next year.
We ordered a really cool picture of Christ for Christmas and they sent us the wrong one, so we should be getting the one we ordered this week (which we're really excited for).
On Christmas, we built 12 enormous snowmen in front of Emily's parent's house. The snow was perfect for it. The picture really doesn't do it justice. They were HUGE!

Just wanted to show some pictures I got from my new camera today! The first one is of Chewwy just playin' in the snow and the second is of the Rexburg temple.

It's been a great week. We went to Boise this week and visited my family and then we went to Blackfoot to Emily's grandpa's funeral.
Boise was really fun. We enjoyed relaxing, doing the puzzle, XBOX night at Sam's, and everything else.
While we were in Boise I hunted and hunted and finally found the camera I've been wanting at the right price. The camera was VERY expensive, so I sold one of my old guns, two pairs of skis, etc to afford it. Our house was a major Craigslist liquidation site for a week. I got a professional DSLR camera (Canon Rebel XS), and I LOVE it. I'm excited to get to some picture taking with it. The squirrel picture is one of the first pictures I took with it.
The funeral was really nice. It was obviously a lot of work by everyone in Emily's family, but it turned out very nice.
I got called today to be the Sunday School President in our ward. I think it'll be a great calling for me.
We're sure getting excited for the baby. My good friend Clegg asked me to help him give a name and blessing to his baby today. Emily could hardly keep from snatching the little black baby for herself. She said she thinks that black babies are the cutest and that she wants one. Sorry Em... I don't think you'll get her wish.
