Friends

One morning after getting ready I came downstairs and found Lexi and Jace like this....

I love that they love eachother and are such good friends...just hope it lasts :-)

Day at the Zoo

The weather's been so nice we decided to head to the zoo this past Friday with a bunch of friends. The thing I LOVE about DC is that a lot of stuff is free...including the zoo!

HAWAII

All I can say is...Hawaii was awesome! We met my whole family there last week, with no kids (except 2 little babies) and had such a good time!

The first day we went out to Goat Island which was a little ways walk (through the ocean) away from our beach.

That afternoon we headed to the Polynesian Cultural center, which was so much fun. The performances we got to see were hilarious!...Are you ready in Japanese???

The next morning we awoke to some excitement. The boys were supposed go swim with the sharks but was cancelled because of the tsunami warning. The house we were staying at was right on the beach, so we had to evacuate and go to higher ground.

THis picture is on the hill behind the church before the tsunami was supposed to hit...which never did by the way.

Luckily the tsumani stuff only took up half our day and we got to spend the other half boogie boarding and soaking up the sun.

The next day we saw some dirty turtles

Went to the temple visitor's center, which was only 2-3 blocks away from where we were staying

Got to celebrate my birthday in Hawaii! It was a great day and got to be with my parents and siblings!

And here were the babies...they were so good! THey are so cute, only one week apart.
Jillian (Kyle and Necia's) and Sadie (Heather and Bryan's)

Probably the best part....shave ice! mmmm!

Family picture...the day Tyson and I had to leave...so sad!

Goodbye beach...until next time!

We decided our next family trip will be in about 3-4.9 years and will probably be a cruise. Can't wait! Thanks so much to Tyson's parent's for watching the kiddos!
