I wanted to post some pics of our trip to Kawaii back in November just for memories sake. It is just so nice to be able to look back on the blog and see the kids grow so I wanted to make sure we had some documentation of that trip on here.
The trip was about 3 wks long, Zion was 2 going on 3 months old on that trip, and we were just coming out of our rough spell with him which was such an answer to prayer. During that trip he was cooing and interacting so much, seemingly trying to explain to us just how much better he felt. Eden grew a lot on this trip as well. There were two older boys with us ages 11 & 13 and they played and played with Eden as if she was their sister. I have never seen anything like it. By the time we came home, Eden was speaking in full sentences and has been ever since.
It was hard to be there with a 2 month old, mainly because it was hard to protect him from the rain and the sun while at the beach all day, and by the time we came home I was more than ready. But already I am more than ready to go back. It is funny, I never had a strong desire to visit Hawaii, but once you go it sort of gets in your blood and I often find myself day dreaming about our days on the sand and in the sun and rain, and our afternoons of eating snow cones in town. Counting the days till we can return....
This was Eden's third trip on an airplane, she was super excited!

It is raining super hard in this pic. Zion, Kerry and I are huddled under a beach umbrella waiting for it to pass while Eden and Jon were playing in the water.
Best pineapple ever! (sp?)
An endangered monk seal - this little guy crawled right up to us while we were camped out on the beach. We ended up having to move all of our stuff so that they could put a "do not enter" perimeter around him.
