Happy Birthday Haley, and welcome to IIS!!
Congrats on the scope your dad got you, its a nice start. You will be able to find a few goodies with it, and hopefully start in your quest of finding your way around the night sky. Many constellations with bful stars and star cluster, few planets, and a galaxy or 2. Enjoy.
Down the track you can aim for a 6" or 8" Dob, or whatever catches your fancy.

oh. ps. take Wades suggestion Stellarium is a great FREE piece of astronomical software!!
