Things Parents Say

This post will be an ongoing collection of the weird things we've said as parents.

• Oh good, now we both smell like half-digested milk. I hope you're happy.
• (in complete sincerity) Good job! You did a big poo poo!

Baby Cade

Cade Matthew was born on December 26th to my brother Nathan and sis-in-law Nathalie. He is so cute and looks alot like Paige when she was born. We just love him and are so happy to have him part of the family :)

Our love for "The Office"
(it was a fun restaurant that was located on the beach)

I hadn't been in a hammock for a long time, so this was super fun :)

In the swimming pools, they had fire pits that they lit every night

Sweet beds to lay on!

Aww.. Mexico. This was a surprise vacation! Nathalie, my sis-in-law, invited us to come along with my brother and her to Mexico and we happily accepted :) Thanks Nat! It was so much fun to spend time with them. Libby, who had just gotten home from Taiwan, came as well-- so it was a fun-filled family vacation.

Lately our blog seems to just contain vacations. It's because trips are the only fun things we do ;)
Unfortunately my sis-in-law has quit her job with Delta, so our exotic vacations have come to an end.. but it was super fun while it lasted.. :)

Hawai'i!

We biked down the mountain after we saw the sunrise

We saw the sunrise at Haleakala volcano

Trevor jumped a couple times from this cliff

Poipu Beach, Kauai

We went to Kauai and Maui in November. It was dang fun! It was absolutely beautiful and the weather was so perfect. Some of the highlights of the trip were: laying out on the beach and listening to the ocean, eating a Puka dog (a famous specialty hot dog made only in Kauai) -- yum yum! We also went to Queen's Bath, Wailea Falls, went on a fun helicopter ride that toured the Napali coastline and Waimea Canyon (it was a little scary at first, but it turned out to be awesome). In Maui, we visited Aunt Bonnie and Uncle Kay and stayed with them for a couple of days. They are such great people-- it was so fun to visit them! Also in Maui, we woke up at 2 am to go on a tour of the Haleakala Volcano and see the sunrise. It was beautiful but very cold! And rainy and windy! But as soon as we got on our bikes, it cleared up and got pretty warm, especially the further we went down. It was such a great vacation! We hope we can go back to Hawaii one day :)
