Early Christmas Present

Cambria got an early Christmas present from her grandma and grandpa Tolman a few days ago. And she absolutely loves it!! She can't quite reach the pedals but loves getting pushed on it. It's cute to watch her try and ride it.

funny stuff to help you through the week!

They look so much alike:

Do people just not like her stuff that much?

Touch Down celebration gone wrong:

Let this be a lesson to everyone!

Support Local Music

A friend of mine (Greg Downs) has been working on a new album and I wanted to post his most recent track on here to have everyone listen and let me know what they think.

I have already shown a few people his stuff and they really like it, so I am hoping to help him get the word out. He is doing quite a bit of tours and everything so if you want to learn about those upcoming I have included a link where you can sign up for his mailing list.

If you like it please sign up for the mailing list and support him, you can also join the street team if you would like.

Also, if you are just wanting to buy his CD or listen to more of his music you can check him out by clicking here or you can go to GregDowns.com/

just like mom

Everyone always said that Cambria takes after me, I now finally see the resemblance... This picture was not staged either. she did this all by herself.





This is her new Christmas skirt. It may look familiar because, well, it is the same pattern as the summer skirt I made for her and very similar to the dress I made for the fall. But I love the look and think she looks so cute.

BEST CHRISTMAS VIDEO EVER!

This was sent to me in an email by my dad.
I hope you enjoy this!
MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Thanks goes out to Kevin for this!

Cheese!!

For once she's looking at the camera and, better yet, smiling! I don't think I will ever get to use these bins for the use I had in mind.

Winter Festivities

We have been pretty busy lately. The day after Thanksgiving we went to Thanksgiving Point and saw the Christmas lights which I thought were kind of lame... and would not recommend going to, but their hot chocolate was good. We will probably be going to the Hogle Zoo to see those lights sometime so hopefully they will make up for it. But Cambria LOVED seeing the reindeer!

Skyler and I always go to the Festival of Trees but he is out of town so I went with my mom this year. Cambria did pretty well since she doesn't like sitting for more than a few minutes but she was fine if she had food. So I kept her belly full with caramel apples and a rice krispy treat.

Here we are 5 years ago at the Festival of Trees. So cute.

I also made Cambria a dress (which I love) that cost less than 5 dollars to make! I have seen dresses like this before but just made it up as I went and I'm proud of it. Next time I will add more tule to the bottom though to make it more full.

2 seconds later she tipped this bear over and broke it. I should have known better than to put him on the floor.

Our tree may not last until Christmas because I am tired of keeping Cambria away from it and re-stringing the lights every day.
