To Celebrate our 5 yr anniversary Chris and I took a short trip to Hawaii. I hadn't been there in about 10 yrs and Chris had never been there. I was wonderful. We stayed at the Hilton Hawaiian Village and spent 4 days being spoiled. Our room was on the 27 floor, and view was incredible. I did not want to come home!!

Here is a view of the city from our balcony.

Another fabulous view from our room.

Chris ready to go to the Luau.

The Hotel had many animals on the property. I think it looks like the flamingo is talking to the duck.

Us together, after dinner.

The view of Diamond Head from our room.

The penguins at the Hotel. The were kissing!

The view straight down from our room.

The sunsets were so beautiful!!

I want to go back!!!

Diamond Head

Chris and I woke up one morning and decided to take an easy drive to the aquarium and maybe head to the zoo........well we ended up in a detour because of a marathon that was going on. After a few miles we ended up at the base of Diamond Head. We kind of looked at each other and said, "What the Heck, lets do it." It is not a long hike, it is .8 miles to the top.......but it is basically straight up. It was about 90 degrees out, but the view from the top was well worth it!

The View inside Diamond Head from the top. This is where we were headed

we made it!!

The view was beautiful!

Well worth it!

Pearl Harbor

We spent 1 day at Pearl Harbor. It was a very educational day. We went to the Arizona memorial, took a tour of the USS Missouri, toured the Bowfin Submarine, and went to the new Aviation museum. I have about 200 pictures from this day, but here is a few of our favorites.

This is a picture of the memorial from the deck of the Bowfin.

The USS Missouri was parked on the other side of the harbour.

I took this picture from the telescope on the deck of the Bowfin, I think this picture is pretty cool!

The Arizona Memorial

My Cute Little Ones

Kisses!!

Pretty Girl!

They Love each other!

My sweet boy!!

The kids are doing great!! The big news in our house is Haylee is walking! She has been taking steps for several weeks, but in the last week or so she really taken off! She is getting really good. I think she looks funny when she walks, she is so tiny!

Fun with sun and sand!

Today it was too hot!! We took the opportunity to head to Half Moon Bay to cool off. Donna and Allie joined us for a beach picnic lunch and some fun in the water. The weather was a perfect 75 degrees, and it was slightly overcast, so the sun wasn't blazing down on us the whole time.

Chris, Tyler and Allie played for hours in the water. Tyler had a blast running from the waves, once in a while he waited too long and got wet.

Chris and Allie basically stood in one place and waited for the waves to come to them. Sometimes they waited too long.........

and ended up getting really wet!!

Tyler had sand EVERYWHERE!! He is just too cute!

Tyler pull your pants up!!

Donna, Haylee, and I hung out on the towels. Haylee was so happy to be out and about!

That is until she started eating the sand.......

Hi dad what ya doing down there????

Tyler your pants are still falling down..... He has a perfect plumbers crack!!

When Chris and Tyler buried Allie, Ty thought it would be fun to jump on her...

We had a great day, and we can't wait to go back!

The pirate video

Here is the video of Tyler singing the pirate song. He loved the pirates!!!!

DisneyLand Pictures......FINALLY!!

Where oh where has the month of May gone? It has been an extremely busy month. We are planning Ty's 3rd birthday party for Memorial Day, and I hosted a baby shower for my dear friend Alex last weekend. The highlight of our month was our fabulous to Disneyland. We had a wonderful time in Disneyland celebrating my dads 50th birthday. Here are a few of pictures. I have hundreds and I can't wait to share more.


Tyler had a great day and he was soooo good. In the picture above he is riding in the front of the monorail. It is really cool that they let you ride in the front car with the driver.

This was a cool picture that I took of the Matterhorn. Tyler was tall enough, and he rode the bobsled ride. He was afraid of almost every ride he went on, but he LOVED them all. After every ride, he wanted to do it again.

Tyler's favorite part of the trip was getting to meet all of his favorite characters.

Tyler and Tigger. Cheese!

Cheeeeeese

Allie the pirate! Pirates was Tyler's favorite ride and he sang the song all weekend. I will post the video right after this post. It is tooo Cute

1 Happy Birthday DAD! We enjoyed a great breakfast at Goofey's kitchen. It was sooo good!

You could see the fireworks from our hotel room.

I wonder who is talking too......Mickey maybe??

Cheeeeese

He was kind of unsure of Goofey......

Haylee in her Mickey ears.

Both my babies passed out in the middle of dinner at the restaurant. Tyler opened his eyes when we got back to the hotel to sing us the pirate song, and then he was knocked out until morning. It was very funny!

I'm pretty sure I was born to live here!!

The whole gang in Downtown Disney

My sweet baby girl!

All in all we had a wonderful time, and we can't wait to go back in couple of years!
