Maui - Day 1

Today we woke up at quarter to six. I love coming to Hawaii because the time change is four hours behind Utah. That means when I wake up at six in the morning in Hawaii my body feels like it's ten in the morning in Utah. And that is just perfect for me. Anyway, we took a walk to Black Rock and back to get a little exercise. We love the walk and view of the ocean, mountains and other islands. The weather was wonderful as always. We then had a bite to eat and headed down to the beach.

Sean and I went snorkeling first thing and saw a couple of turtles. One turned around and just looked at Sean for about a minute. We saw tons of beautiful fish. I wished I had my camera. The water was so calm and clear.

Lisa and I shared fajitas at Hard Rock Cafe. We are having fun with our friends. After we went to Cold Stone for a little ice cream and dancing.

Tonight we played cards and games and had a great time. Jen Herde is so funny. We just laugh and laugh until it hurts.

Maui with the Herdes

So we have been waiting to go to Maui all year. We are finally on our way. We are meeting Tyler and Karen Davis and Jon and Michelle Farris tonight at the resort. We are in the Crown Room right now waiting for our plane and they just announced that we're boarding.

Memorial day in California

We took a short trip to California for Memorial day. Lisa brought the activities as always. This time it was iron on shirts with puff paint. The kids love activity days with Craftylisa.

I have one brother that doesn't talk to me any more and one the gives me the bird everytime he sees me. Ha! Ha!

We had a BBQ at Tony's house on Memorial day. We ate good food and swam. We had a blast.

We did some modeling in Tony's backyard. Below is a clip

Riding ATVs

This year we got a couple of ATVs. We have been having a blast on them. One of the first times Sean and I took them out we popped a tire. I think it was a fluke but we now have a spare tire just incase that happens again. Taylor loves it when I go fast and Kayla and Morgan are starting to learn how to drive them on their own. Lisa hates the steep hills.

Super Mom!

Ok, I have to say that Lisa is a wonderful mother. In fact, other than my mother, I don't think there is better. She cares for our kids so much. She is loving them, teaching them and caring for them 24/7. She takes them to dance, music, practice, voice, karate, school, church, shopping, lunch, friends and then gets them ready for bed. She then showers them, reads to them, prays with them, sings to them and loves them. How lucky am I to have such an angel for my family?

Whenever we are taking pictures Taylor always pulls the funniest faces. Here are some Mother's Day shots that just make me laugh.

Polly's Birthday

My mom and Polly came to visit and see Morgan's play. It was Polly's birthday and Uncle Dick had my mom bring her a cake from California. The cake was beautiful! We had a wonderful time just visisting, singing and opening presents. It is always fun seeing Peggy and Polly together.

Spanish Fork Theatre

Morgan was in play this year in Spanish Fork. She played a few parts and did a great job. The play was fun to watch and we were all really entertaining. Here are a couple of pictures of Morgan in the play.

Got Bunnies

Well I finally have some time to blog a little. I’m down in Las Vegas with our friends the Montgomerys. I just got back from the pool and thought I’d update our blog. In April the kids got bunnies. I was not to happy about that. We had bunnies growing up and two bunnies usually turn into 30 bunnies. Well we now have 4, one for each kid and the other day we found out that we have two male and two female. I think we are in trouble. Also, the other day Kayla ran into the house and said that the bunnies looked weird and sounded like geese.
