Opening Presents

Christmas Morning

I used the same snowman thing for the slide show becase I don't like any of the other ones and they have some new years ones but it is not new years yet!

Christmas in El Paso

It's COLD!!

The temperature outside right now is 12 degrees. This morning when Aaron went to work it was 4 degrees. Just thought I would share that with all of you!

I was looking at pictures of Cambria from last year, she looks like a different baby! She has definatly grown up a lot in one year. Here are some pictures of Cambria from last Christmas.

Pony Tail

It is hard to get good pictures of Cambria because she is always moving. I am not sure what she is doing in this picture but it is cute. I was excited the other day because I realized Cambria's hair was long enough for a little pony tail. She was not happy about me touching her hair, and the pony tail did not last long but she is getting better about it. Our Christmas tree here has snowman on it. Cambria likes to take them out 0f the tree, and she loves to wear the hat from the big snowman.

Ice Skating

We went to Logan on Saturday to take Brenna ice skating for her birthday. We both had never gone before, and it was a lot of fun.

Christmas Lights

On our way to Salt Lake this weekend we stopped to go through a park where they set up all kinds of lights and have Christmas music playing. Cambria had so much fun, we were driving less than 5 miles an hour, it was like driving through Eastridge but with a lot less cars, and so we let her out of her car seat so she could see the lights better. The whole time she was amazed and kept saying WOW over and over.

We also went to Temple Square to look at the lights there, first we went to Olive Garden and then we walked to see the lights. It was really neat because they had different colors of lights on the trees and the trees were covered with snow so it made the whole tree glow. Our camera does not take good pictures at night so we didn't get many pictures of Temple Square, but here is what we did get...

ME SKIING!!!!!

So yesterday I went skiing for the first time. I did really well. At first I was really nervous because I have heard of a lot of people who have been hurt skiing, but when we got to the bunny hill (that is the small hill for learners) there were little kids there! I think the smallest kid there was about 5 years old. So I figured that if they were brave enough to ski, then I can do it to! We stayed on the small hill most of the day, it was not very steep and the ski lift took only about a minute to take us to the top of the hill, but then I went with Aaron his sister and some of her friends on a much bigger hill, the ski lift took about 10 minutes to take us to the top, and about 15 to 20 minutes to ski back down. I was VERY scared on that hill, there were more people, and everyone on that hill was better than me and I was getting passed by skiiers and snow boarders left and right. I had a couple of close calls but I am proud to say that I made it to the bottom of that run without incident and all of my bones in tact! So here are some pictures and video of me skiing, sorry but the two times i fell we did not have the camera out, it is too bad because the first time I fell on my face, it must have looked funny.

I made a total Elf of myself

Backpack

This is Cambria's new favorite thing. She wears it all around the house.

Being Silly

Could she possibly get any closer? She just loves Sesame Street. This is how she likes to sit in her chair now. Maybe we should have gotten her a recliner? New Outfit! I love when Old Navy has good sales on baby clothes.

hair

We try to distract her after her hair is done, but she always remembers and ends up pulling them out. Oh well.

Pigtails

It looks really cute when do Cambria's hair but the cute hair does not last long. She always pulls them out when we are not looking.

Shots

Cambria had to get shots last week and it made her feel sick for about 2 days. She would just lay on the couch with her bottle and a stuffed animal and watch Sesame Street.

We went to Island Park this weekend and stayed at Aaron's uncle's cabin there. We rode around on the 4 wheelers, because the water was really low, and chopped down some tree stumps that might damage boats in the summer . This was the same lake we went to for Cambria's birthday.
