Lately...

I finally got around to uploading photos from recent activities and outings. Early this winter CJ and I had a great opportunity to go to Mexico for a month during Chrstmas time. We went with CJ's sister Crystal, brother-in-law Ali, and their three lovely girls, Elisia, Breanna, and Isabelle. We flew into San Diego California, where I fell in love with the nice warm weather. For December, 70 degrees was absolutely amazing. Someday I NEED to live somewhere sunny all the time, I get so depressed in the winter. From there, we drove through the boarder to Tijuanna and stayed for a few days with Ali's sister. Then we stayed the rest of the time in Ensenada with his parents along the baja. We spent Chrsitmas day and New Years on the beautiful beach. That was the best.

I really enjoyed playing at the beach. The ocean is one of my favorite things in the world. I absolutely loved riding horses on the beach with my love. <3

While enjoying the beautiful sunset I decided to do some yoga and ballet poses on the beach while CJ photographed me.

Mexico is definitely a different place. I had never had the desire to travel before and now I don't understand why. I absolutely love traveling, and after this trip it made me appreciate the diversity of all parts in the world. I can't wait to visit other places like Europe, Italy, and Austrailia someday.

It was sad seeing the poor side of town. It made me appreciate everything I have and realise how truely blessed I am.

It was interesting watching how these people lived their lives though. It's just a way of life for them...

This trip was such a great experience for me, because I had never been out of the country before this. And it was good for CJ and I. We grew as a couple.

When we got home it was cold and snowy so we went sledding one day! It was tons of fun.

Prada's hair was so long! She had a good time playing in the snow.

We celebrated her first birthday February 10.

I can't believe she's already one year old. It seems like just yesterday she was still a puppy...:(

And last but not least, I had the best Valentines ever...ice cream and chick-flicks. Two of my most favorite things. CJ got me "The time Travelers Wife" which I had been dieing to see. It was really sad, I cried through most of it. Rachel McAdams is one of my favorite actresses. She was perfect as Clair. I'd really like to read the book now.

So thats whats been happening lately...I'll try to keep my blog more up to date. This semester of school at a university has taken most of my time. I'll be glad to be done! School isn't really my thing, but i'd really like to teach kindergarten. I love children and I love helping people.
