Mexican Riviera Cruise

So I am finally posting pictures from our trip. The first week in May, Brandon and I went on a cruise to Mexico with our good friends Ryen and Alex Farnworth. This was a much needed vacation for all of us. We had such a blast! And all of it, thanks to our amazing brother, Cameron! Here are some of the pics from our trip (they are totally out of order but I'm too lazy to rearrange them) My favorite spot on the ship :)

4 Christmases 2009

This was by far the best Christmas we have ever had! We visited home for just over a week and took advantage of every minute we had.

Christmas Part 1: We started Christmas off right and woke up bright and early, ready to see what goodies Santa brought us! Then we opened gifts, goofed around and took some family pictures.

Hear no evil, speak no evil, see no evil...

Just us girls!

The cutest couple with the cutest puppster

The kids...miss you sibs :(

Christmas Part 2: Auntie Nani, Uncle Dave, Jaymi, Sara, and Lila came over for a delicious Christmas breakfast! We feasted, celebrated Lila's 22nd Birthday, opened presents and watched Cj and my home videos from 1993...oh man, that is some funny stuff!

Christmas Part 3: After visiting with family, we headed up to the Williams house for some more Christmas fun. We visited for a while, snacked on some delicious goodies, and opened presents!

Brandon and Cameron...he's the best :)

Christmas Part 4: After visiting with the Williams, we headed back down for the Norris family extravaganza! We had an amazing dinner, opened more gifts, caught up with our Aunts, Uncles, cousins, and the most wonderful woman...my Great Grandma Carol! Then we attempted to stuff ourselves even more with cheesecake and apple crumble.

Maybe a third of the Norris clan!

We just barely missed her, She was born December 30. 7lbs 8oz and 21 inches long. We love you baby Taylor!

The Sunday after Christmas, mom and dad hosted yet another party with friends and family. Luckily, we were able to visit with quite a few people before we left to catch our flight.

Uncle Lito, Auntie (beautiful voice) Lani & family.

Then it was back to Utah where we were welcomed home by 10 degree weather, a popped tire on our Xterra, and a looong work week. Here is a little tour of our humble yet festive Christmas decor :)

We had SO much fun at home this year, it was so nice and relaxing. We hit all of our favorite restaurants, got in a little shopping, a lot of family time, and made out good with Christmas gifts :) We got so home sick before we even left for the airport but we're starting to get back into the groove of our day to day. We love you and miss you all and we're so grateful for the time we were able to share with you....until next Christmas <3

My Trip to California: Part 2

Carpinteria!

Every summer my family goes camping at Carpinteria and it is my most favorite trip of the year! Although I am still in school, I decided to take a week off and spend my time relaxing on the beach with my family. Here are some of the things we did...

Sunday was Uncle Mikes birthday so we had dinner and celebrated with him at Aunt Lynn's beach house.

Beach fun!

On our way to Solvang!

Dinner at Giovanni's Pizza...then dessert at Foster's Freeze, a Carp tradition!

Getting ready for s'more fun!
