Enjoying the Spring Weather Outside!

We've been spending lots of time outside enjoying the spring weather!

Trying to learn how to blow bubbles

 We'll keep on practicing!

 Love seeing the cherry blossom trees bloom!

 The boys and I walked to the park one day while Jimmy played tennis.

 When we got back he was washing his Jeep and the boys both wanted to help.

 Camden likes to help me vacuum too :)

Jackson is a crazy good frisbee thrower. He does so much right handed but throws baseballs and frisbees left handed! He throws way better than I ever could.

 We love spending time outside in the yard playing with our boys. I hope they grow up loving the outdoors and always wanting to run around and be active! That is how we grew up. And we had to earn our TV time by reading and once Jackson and Camden are old enough I will probably start the same rules!

Hawaii - Part 3

I can't believe I had so many photos from this trip. I'm sure it seems like overkill to most but I really wanted to remember this trip and this blog is pretty much our family scrapbook. I have a hard time narrowing them down, but I started with over 1000 photos so I think I did pretty good in the end!

That face! Ha!

So many amazing scenery shots! And honestly these are all unedited. Mostly because I just didn't have the time. In Hawaii you almost don't need much editing. It is naturally just amazing and beautiful!

 Getting buried in the sand!

  I went snorkeling one day and tried to get Jackson to come with me. He didn't want to snorkel in the ocean but loved snorkeling in the pool later that day.

That evening we went to a Luau. They have a train ride before the luau starts and we made it just in time before they left for the plantation tour!

 After the train ride we headed to the luau. They unearthed the pig that had been cooking all day. We all ate and waited for the show to start. The food was ok, but the real reason we went was for the show! That's the fun part.

 Jackson wanted to dance with me

 We played outside a little before the show started

 Our last dinner at Keoki's Paradise

It's pretty tough getting a good picture of all three boys!

Jackson was thrilled with the Hula pie! It was gigantic but we all shared it. And it was delicious!

The next day we packed up and on our way out stopped for brunch at a local country club. The kids got restless so after eating we all played and ran around getting some energy out!

 In the Honolulu airport. Who knew pay phones still existed?!

Camden fell asleep shortly after we took off and slept most of the whole way home. Jackson slept a few hours and I managed to doze off here and there. 

We had such a wonderful and amazing trip and we give all the thanks to my mom and dad for taking us all to Hawaii for a week!
