Birthday


SO these posts aren't in order....oh well. The day before we went to Hawaii we celebrated Carter's birthday. I can't believe that he is now 4 years old. He is now in CTR4 in primary and just yesterday he gave his first talk in primary! He did a great job and wasn't shy and said everything. He came home with a CTR ring. I remember that day when I got my first ring and it doesn't seem that long ago and here I am seeing my own child so excited to wear this ring. He has told me and his sister to choose the right and to make the right choice. I love my little Carter man and am thrilled to see him grow but it is sad too... it all goes by so fast!!! I wish I could just stop time for a few months and go back and relive certain days :)

WAY TOO LONG



Okay so I am going to do a ton of "catch up" posts. I know its been like 5 months. TONS has happened and I need to write it down. I think I will start with HAWAII!!! We were really blessed this last year to be able to go on a family vacation to Hawaii. I was extremely nervous to take all 3 kids all the way over there.....but we did and we had a great time. It is so beautiful and right now I am just dreaming I am over there. Oh how nice the weather was and the sand and water and SUN!!!! I love the sun as long as it doesn't get too hot and it was perfect! I can't wait to go back again sometime!!!



Brooklyn went on stage with Tiana and Andrea to
learn how to hula



Our sugar cane train ride.....
kids loved it and still talk about going on a train.


Some major waves back there.
They would crash on these rocks that we were standing on....
I thought we were going to be plowed over




Brooklyn at the Luau...

We hiked back into "Twin Falls"

was a little timid of the waves but soon warmed up to them.
