What makes Christmas so sensational? Besides the normal hustle and bustle of the daily Christmas rituals and traditions there is really something magical that I am sure you each would agree, resides in your own home each year. I know the gourmet food, Christmas caroling, family discussions, games, relaxing, and reconnecting with loved ones all play a part, but I am convinced that Christmas is attributed from my crazy, chaotic, loveable, sporadic, partiers, humorous, caring, eccentric, sexy (I tribute that adjective to my brother in law) Unique family. We are the essence of a beautiful chaos
I could not ask for better parents, siblings, and friends to surround me during this holiday season. I am so grateful for family who protects, guides and takes my shortcomings with love and patience. My life is abundant in blessings galore and I wonder if I really deserve such a family as mine. May your Holidays be bright and merry! Eat up and revel in the fantastically s’wonderful Christmas break! Love to all!!

I can do it.
People be proud of me please.
Tonight I performed with Miriam and my sister Mackenna for BYU's songwriters showcase. ME. Did you get that? Cailey Gallacher (more like Kate Gallagher -- they spelled my name wrong on the program) actually sang in front of 80 + people!
I wanted to prove to myself that I could do it--and I did.
Pat on the back to myself. :)

100th Post
This is my 100th post. Huzzah!
Twas the day of the 100th post for my blog,
And I sat on my couch eating cupcakes like a hog.
My schoolwork was spread out all over the floor,
Just studying away-- oh what a bore!
I started to think of off topic things,
of holidays and such and what christmas brings.
Service and cooking and singing with friends
laughing and sledding and my new short hair split ends.
When all of a sudden I realized, My blog!!
Its the 100th post and I've got to write a monologue!
Away to my laptop I moved in a flash
but got distracted and took out my trash.
The weather outside was blistering cold
and I quickly recalled my blog was still untold!
With a little skip and a hop here and there
I made it back inside with a shouting declare:
I'll write this post if its the last thing I do
so I sat down again and began anew.
Now tsk tsk my hands went all over the keyboard
as fast as my little fingers could afford!
My thoughts got all mangled and I couldn't express
the feelings I had and I started to stress.
All my words came out wrong; all the sentences blurry
Like a crazy old lady all up in a flurry!
And then in a moment I knew what to write
and my thoughts kept on coming all through the night!
I am so grateful I excitedly began,
for family, friends, and Heavenly Father' great plan.
I realized right what my 100th post would be
a post full of gratitude, a thankful decree
As I finished my musings for this, my 100th post
I realized what I wanted the most.
I want all you bloggers to live life in delight
Happy 100th post and have a good night!
