Oakland Temple Trip

       This past week we went and saw the temple lights in Oakland. We had a really nice time.
      




I think this picture isn't the best of any of us, but my son isn't really good at smiling for the camera, and I am just 7 months pregnant so thats my excuse.





The Temple is So BEAUTIFUL!

Our missionary Bro's

We couldn't be any prouder of our missionary brothers. Josh has his two youngest brothers on mission and my two youngest brothers are also on their mission. I only have pictures of my brothers though, cause his brothers are no good at e-mailing pictures to us. (hint, hint to them) But we still love them and are proud of them.
I just wanted to put a little post about our missionary brothers. Josh and I feel so blessed to have so many of our brothers all out at one time. They all work SO hard, and their letters are just amazing. They each are growing so much. We continue to love each of their e-mails and look forward to the time when they each will come home. We are most excited about each of them meeting our little girl for the first time, and for Payton to see them each again. When Brady left Payt was only 5 months and when Danny left he was only 8 months. So obviously Payt doesn't really remember them. But, luckily they both have watched him grow into a little boy through all my e-mails and blog posts. Next year is going to be an exciting time.

Brady will be home February 10, 2010 -in North Carolina-
Danny will be home May 11, 2010 (I think) -in Ecuador-
Sean will be home July 2011 (I think) -in Texas-
Josh will be home August 2011 (I think) - in Paraguay-

Danny showing off his little apple juice can he found. Our grandma used to buy these for us all the time. They bring back some good childhood memories.

We love you guys and miss you guys a ton. Have a wonderful Christmas and New Years!

Stef and Dawsons visit

We have had a wonderful 4 days. My sister and her husband came from St. George to visit us since we wont be seeing each other over christmas this year. We all had such a wonderful time. Sunday we pretty much did nothing but rest and relax. Payton got used to his aunt and uncle and by Monday he was asking his Aunt Stef to do everything for him.  Monday we just shopped, baked, ate, and played a game. By Tuesday Payton was asking his uncle Dawson to even do somethings with him. He loved asking me, "where is it Stef or where is it Dawson?" He is so cute how he always asks "where is it" and then he says the thing/person he is looking for.  We got to go and have lunch with our grandma and spend some time with her. She is a very proud great grandma and Payt was so good with her. He was very helpful at carrying her cain for her.  He loves the dogs at her house. He loved playing with the dogs thats for sure. We then just ate, baked more, played some more games and watched a movie. By Wednesday Payton was totally loving both his aunt and uncle. He was used to them and wasn't afraid at all. The 4 of us went and got pedicures in the morning, while my friend watched Payton for us. It was so fun and relaxing. It is something the 4 of seem to enjoy doing when ever we are together.  We then ate some lunch and then had to say good-bye. We were very sad to see them leave.
I just love being with family. My sister and I have become so much closer in the last 3 years and I am so grateful for that. She is definitely my best friend. The 4 of us just get along so well, many times I wish we all lived a little bit closer. But I will just have to wish for that to happen some day. I love my sister and her husband so much and am so excited for 2010. It is going to be a year full of many fun and eventful things within the Cambra Family and the Robertson Family.
(if you want to know what they are you will just have to keep looking at my blog, I will be sure to post it all)
I am looking forward to it all and can't wait!!!
       


Payton loves his Handy Manny and tools he got from his aunt and uncle.

He totally figured out how to open presents finally.

Payton loved eating all the cookie dough after we got done making the cookies.

My son and his SUNGLASSES. He loves these. I had to get myself a new pair cause he thinks these are his and he wears them all the time while we are in the car.

Dawson was in-charge of entertaining Payton while we rolled out the sugar cookies and cut them.

We love you Stef and Daws! Thanks for coming and visiting us. 
Payton keeps asking about you guys.
