Being Boys

Pretty sure I've never seen Kendal and any of her friends do this...

Practicing Swings

Just a little morning exercise.  I get a little tricked up in what sport is happening but Cam doesn't seem to notice.  

Sorry about the diaper - hate that!  

Hawaii

Last week Brian and I were lucky enough to go to Maui for a few days - (a million thanks to Grammie and Grandpa who made EVERYTHING possible)!!!!!!!!  It was so beautiful and we really enjoyed our time together just relaxing (I got to actually read a book)!

Brian and I went hiking not once but twice, that's right...twice (the most physical activity we've ever done together)!  Here is a picture on our second hike... the photo does not appear impressive but we were hiking up the mountain overlooking a river on one side and the ocean down below.  In fact we hiked up high enough to be "in" the clouds so our 5 mile hike could've stopped at 2 miles...the best part of the hike...but stopping halfway was not an option.  

Hiking the first day led us to a waterfall. The sign reads: "Danger Falling Rocks - Unsafe Beyond This Point."  Brian is such a daredevil.

Our hotel lobby

Really...does it get any better than this?!?!?!

Our hotel pool

If you make it here ask for Terry, she's best and quite the character!

So here's the funny part... Ironically Alcon's President's Club trip just happened to be in Hawaii not only at the same time as us but they were at the Grand Wailea, 2 doors down from us!!!  Even though we had a few Alcon people sightings we managed not be too noticed.  However, while driving down the road we looked over only to find the Alcon bus next to us, I HAD to take a picture (Brian didn't even look, haha).  

Mini Hot Shot

Last week I was putting some stuff away upstairs and I hear Kendal and Beckett are talking about packing for a trip.  I look over the edge and I see Kendal has her basket full of unicorns and horses, Beckett has balls, trucks and trains...it's all in the genes!

Kendal had her gymnastics show for her mini hot shot class. It was nice because I actually got a chance to see what she does in class (instead of following Beck and Cam around watching the skateboarders), she did great and we were so proud of her.

After breakfast one morning the kids were practicing their jumping Jacks...

A kicker?

Busy Body

Someone has been verrry busy these days...

Beck rides

We raised Beckett's bike and here's how he came down the hill...

Cam in tub with club

I kept hearing this noise - this is what I found when I peeked around the corner...

Easter

Despite Kendal asking me over and over if we can go somewhere for Easter we ended up in Phoenix. Grammie and Grandpa met us at church which just so happened to be the longest service ever and they didn't even stop the service for the fireman who had to come in midway to help out an older gentlemen. Then we had lunch, went to the park to play and just enjoyed being together.

Don't judge the decor or lack thereof

We hit an Easter egg hunt on Saturday at church, they had lots of games and fun things for the kids - they had a ball

Beckett, Kendal, Ella and Ady

Cam at the egg hunt. How typical for this age is this?! I don't need to tell you he didn't get many eggs, haha

We dyed eggs with Grammie and surprisingly it held Cam's attention (Notice his hands).

Everyone worked so hard

A couple of random pics

I am overdue in posting so here are a few I've taken in the last couple of weeks.

While I was getting the bath ready here is how I found the kids in the hallway...

Story time

It looks like a mess here but this is how we do it folks (and this is where Cam likes to lay)

Last weekend my mom and I (my mom's friend was also there so it was a girls weekend for sure) finally made it San Francisco! I mean really, not sure how you can get lost in the Nordstrom shoe department but we managed to lose each other - my idea of shoe heaven!

Bad picture but if you look really close you can see Alcatraz in the background
