Our trip!!

I want to try and fit everything else into this one post!! We shall see if it works!

Our friends...WE missed you so much! I had so much fun doing things with our old and new friends!

Brielle had fun with her friends too...

This is how we got around in Hawaii....We walked for a couple days, but it just took too long and we got really tired so we borrowed a bike from our friends the Crosby's and our old bike seat and a bike from our family and away we went. One of us had Brielle with the bike seat and the other one strapped Teja on!!! We were also very lucky to borrow the car whenever we needed it...and I always rode in the back with the girls. Teja is still kind of needy and so you have to sit by her to help her fall asleep. We even took the bus once!!

Brielle had a lot of fun and we were constantly trying to entertain her!!!

Brielle loved spending time with Adam's Family too!!!! She knows everyone's names...

Gma Jana-"Nana"
Nini sometimes too--she was a little confused...cause the only other Gma name she knows is my mom

Gpa Chuck--"Papa" (sadly the only pic I have of Gpa)

Uncle Ryan--"A-doo or I-in"

Auntie Amanda--"N-da"

Uncle Alec--"Acs or Aick"

And last, but not least... Bessita--"Sessie"

I got to go in and cut hair at the salon I used to work at and had fun doing some of my friends hair. I even got a trim and am planning to cut more off. My boss Frank has a ranch up Laie Falls, they have a few animals so he invited us up to show Brielle. They found a wild baby pig and have been raising it, they also have a pregnant Mule, and some horses (we didn't see them this time but Adam and I rode them before we moved last year).

Beach babes

Brielle got a little sick and she snuggled me really good!!!

Mornings

Mornings were kind of miserable while we were in Hawaii. THe girls woke up every morning by 5:30 AM no matter what time they went to bed. At first it was ok because it sort of felt like sleeping in--being 9:30 am in Utah--but after a few days it just kept getting worse. So to pass the time we played on Gma and Gpa's bed and took pictures!!! Brielle fed Bessie lots of cheerios and watched Backyardigans "Pablo" every morning! And then we figured out that she was ready for a nap by 10AM and ready for bed by 7PM and one night even 6:30PM!! Now that we are home she thinks she should stay up til 10PM cause that was what time it was in Utah! WE will be fixing that ASAP!

ADAM...you silly man!!

Eww!!

Adam got sunburned the second day we were in Hawaii...he remembered to put sunscreen on when we went to the beach as a family but forgot to re-apply when he went snorkeling with his brother. He fried!!!! The rest of the trip he had to be really careful and most the time stayed in the shade or kept a shirt on...he even refused to go to the beach a few times!! But I had fun peeling the skin off when it started cracking!!!!!!!!!!!!
