So here it is...Our official trip to Maui this year. Dustin's kind and generous boss gifted us this trip and it was FANTASTIC. We stayed at the Hyatt Regency by Kaanapali Beach, which was AWESOME! We checked in on Sunday afternoon into our corner room with an OCEAN VIEW from BOTH balconies. (first picture is the view from our room) We had swans, parrots, pink flamingos and even penguins in the hotel with us.
Cole and Lexi were at the table last night coloring and writing away. Cole jumped down with this piece of paper folded up in his hand and asked if he could run over and give it to his good friend Hailey. I asked if I could see what it was and when I opened it, it brought a little tear to my eye. Childhood friendships are so sweet, and these two are the sweetest. These are all pictures of Cole and his good buddy Hailey, from the very beginning of their sweet friendship, when they could barley sit next to each other and drool together. And holding hands from the start!
This is all of us... Dustin and I have been married 14 years now. We live together in the greatest cul-de-sac in Meridian. Dustin works for Western Heating. I work for Title Nine. I love it. What do we love? Heading to the ball field a few times a week to see Dustin play, watching the kids do what they love, heading up to the cabin every chance we get, and standing around outside with friends in the neighborhood just chatting while the kids play, oh and naps on Sundays after church...Not a bad life we have.
Alexis and Cole
These are the kidos. The greatest part of everyday for us. Lexi is 10 and Cole is 7. Time is flying by, and we feel blessed everyday to be parents! Everyday is a new adventure, two very different kids, Alexis is very much a girly-girl she loves art, and every little crafty thing she can get her hands on, she has a sweet heart and a bossy mouth :-) Cole is all boy, shooting things, kicking and throwing everything, and wrestling with his Dad. He loves baseball, basketball, and football, and even is starting to find a love for running. He is crazy forgetful, but a very sweet and loving boy :-)
