She's 7!

How did you spend your 7th birthday? Kaycee spent hers snorkeling, swimming, getting her nails done, and enjoying Hawaiian Shaved Ice!!
Happy Birthday Kaycee!

Maui!!

Wow! Day 5 ALREADY!!! Maui has been amazing! Great beaches, great pool, great towns so much fun. Our condo is so nice and big enough for all of us, we're literally about 10 steps from the pool, about 20 steps from the beach. We took a glass bottom boat ride and saw 2 octopus. The kids have been practicing snorkeling in the pool and we're ready to hit the beach tomorrow!

We made it! Maui Airport

The grounds of Kaanapali Shores Resort

Party time!

We celebrated Kaycee's birthday yesterday. Her birthday is actually March 30th, but we'll be in Hawaii. She had several friends over for a dancing party! We did the Hokey Pokey, the Cha Cha Slide, the Limbo, the Bunny Hop, Freeze Dance and the Macerana. Then the girls danced to the Hamster Dance and Who Let the Dogs Out. We also had the balloon stomp, which is where the kids stomp on balloons that are filled with candy to pop them. Kaycee had a doughnut cake and we made snow cones! Happy Early Birthday!




Kaycee's present was a new beach cruiser! Just like Mom's!

Counting down

11 more days! We are heading to Maui, Hawaii for a family vacation in 11 days! We are staying at Kaanapali Shores Resort. We have a 2 bedroom condo right on the beach! It's all we've been talking about lately. Hawaii here we come!

This will be our front yard--we're on the ground floor.

Desert Fun 1

We've had fun the last few weekends heading to the desert to ride. We went to Ocotillo Wells Feb. 20, 21 and then Gordon's Well March 6th and 7th. We went with Josh and Mimi both times.

Watching a movie in Josh and Mimi's new trailer

Smore's anyone?

Matthew wears his gear most of the day so he can jump on any quad that come by him.

Desert Fun 2

Gordon's Well trip.
We met Josh and Mimi, and Brett and Elisa.

We're not surfing Kaycee! We're riding!

Who says you have to have snow to go sledding?

We had fun with Daffy, the pet bird.

Dad, can you take me for a ride? This is what Gary hears ALL day! Like Father, like Son!

It was fun to cruise around in a Ranger again! Thanks for sharing Brett and Elisa!

Down by the Bay

Our weather is either 90 degrees, or 50. This last week it was 80ish. We spent the last 2 Saturdays at Mission bay kayaking, paddle boarding, bike riding, BBQ ing, and enjoying smores and a camp fire! Gotta love winters like this!
