More pics

This is on the Napli coast all the way around the island. You can't drive any farther, you have to hike. It was beautiful!
Every night at 6:27 you could watch the sunset. We took so many pics to see if we could get a postcard pic. I think this one wins. I could retire here for sure.

This kids waiting to get on the boat.

This is Brooklyn and I going out to check out the waves. We got out too far before we new it. Brooklyn road a wave in and I, sadly, had a surfer take me back in. It was very embarrassing. Brooklyn said it was the best ride of her life.

Kauai






We took the kids to Kauai! We had so much fun. We saw seals, sea turtles, an eel, a snake, lots and lots of fish and quite a few humpback whales. It happened to be whale season. We took a boat on a whale exursion and saw some and we could also see them blowing water from our beach. I actually saw a whale from the pool at our resort. It was awesome. We took the older kids snorkeling. It was like swimming in a fish aquarium. We toured the entire island. We didn't want to miss anything. I hope the kids always remember the fun trips we go on.

Roxy



Our newest addition to our family...Roxy! She's a labradoodle (part lab part poodle) She's super sweet and we love her.

Valentine craft



Of course when Tiffany comes we have to craft. This is a craft we saw in a background of a different blog, only their's was halloween. It's so cute. I don't think lying it on the table to take a pic does it justice. It really is so cute. When I put it up with other decor, I'll add a new pic. But here it is for now.





Branden and Tiffany came to visit. We had so much fun. The kids love Savannah so much. She gets so many hugs and kisses or should I say brasos and besos. (of course I have no idea how to spell that in spanish) They are teaching her spanish though and it is so cute.

She does understand. Her little tongue is always hanging out. We love her!

Sledding






After Christmas we went up to my brother's cabin. (Thanks so much for letting us stay there. ) We created some great memories. Here's a few pics from sledding. My kids are a little too fearless. Brooklyn and Ethan were sledding from the near top of the mountain where noone else was. Mace was pretty crazy too. He just kept going all day. Owen decided snow was overrated and hung out in the back of the truck. We went sledding with my parents and the Plowmans and Scholes. Everyone had so much fun.





I love looking at other people's blog and felt bad in case anyone checks mine and I don't have anything new to look at. So here's some new info.

We had a great Christmas. It was awesome. We had all my family over for breakfast and my best friends parents from Oklahoma. We also had Damon's mom and bro. It was so fun to have everyone over. We enjoyed making memories with our kids with all our family and friends. We love this tradition. We cooked a great big breakfast. It was so yummy. I think we could've fed quite a few more families though....so next year, everyone's welcome.
