Christmas

Merry Christmas! A little late... Our Christmas holiday was pretty amazing. It went way too fast. We spent 5 days in Orem, then went up to Park City with Mat's family for a get-a-way vacation. We had a blast. Here are a few highlights:

The day we left for Utah, Mat and Cam and I had our own little Christmas here in Lexington and opened the gifts from our family. Camden wasn't quite sure what to think of the gift until the wrapping paper was off. Then he played in it.
He really did love his toys however. Thank you to Grandma and Grandpa Richards and Grandma and Grandpa Taylor for the toys for Christmas. He loves them a lot! (and thus, so does mommy. :) Happy baby = happy mommy)

When we first arrived, Cam's cousins couldn't seem to get enough of him and Mat. Mat told them made-up stories about "Super Cam" and "Super Kel" until they were blue in the face from laughter.
At the family party, Mat, his brother Kimball and sister-in-law Aubrey prepared a little Christmas diddy for the family and rapped for us all. Take a look:

Mat and I saw some of our good friends while we were there.
We went swimming as a family. It was fun to see Mat enjoying his family. We both love them so much and it was so great to see everyone!
Camden enjoyed watching the hubbub of Christmas, but again, enjoyed the wrappings a little more than the toys.
After Christmas we went up to Park City, where we partied a little more. One of our first adventures was sledding. We bundled Camden in more layers than I care to count and he looked a lot like Ralphie's little brother off A Christmas Story. He seemed to enjoy it though.
That is, until he fell asleep. No really.
We also went to a Children's Science Museum where we...
Rode horses...
and Swans...
and Anvils...
and Played with insane amounts of toys.


We had a great time the rest of the week eating out, going to movies, challenging each other to "Just Dance" competitions, and playing games. It was a great vacation. Thanks, Mom and Dad Taylor for bringing us out for the holidays!
