out of the mouth of my babes!

Ya know how everyone has funny phrases or stories their kids tell them. Here are some recent ones from our kiddos that made us laugh!

We like to sing a song just to be funny that goes like this: "Chinese, Japanese are so funny this is how you count your money....Mayley started counting like this, Uno, dos, tres, quatro, cinco, seis!!! haha how funny is that?! LOL!


Hunter told me today that a daddy giraffe was going to have a baby because he had a tail and that the baby was going to hatch! What!?! Yeah kinda funny one!

Mayley was telling grandma the other day that she thinks that Hogan gets bored drinking milk all the time.

Bubs told me the other day when the sun was shining that "It's gonna be summer and the snow is gonna suck up soon!"

He also told us once that after we saw some kids being crazy and jumping on top of a roof of a shed he said, That makes Jesus Sad.

Vday Time!

Valentines was super crazy and fun this year! I made a little treasure hunt for the kids when they woke up. May noticed it right away and couldn't wait to wake up Hunter!! They were so excited to get our love notes and candy from Grandma lynda! We ran to macey's in the morning and grabbed princess valentines for May's preschool party. Our present to the kids were Pillow Pets. You would've thought they were going to disneyland. They were jumping up and down and having a hay day with those things. We made heart shaped sugar cookies for the treats to give to everyone. We had a strawberry smoothie for breakfast. Super yummy stuff. Bubs and I snuck over to Wendy's and had lunch. I splurged and got their new asiago chicken sandwich! Definently yummy and worth it! I had to teach piano and my student brought the kids a valentine. Bubs was nice and said Thanks to Todd! That night we took Valentines to our friends. The best is we took one to our cute elderly neighbor across the street. Bubs was excited to give one to "Effo" (really it's Ethel). She is such a sweet lady and always brings over treats for the kids. What a fun day!!

Highlights of our trip:

Snorkeling at Molokini Crater
Shopping in Lahaina
Bry getting stung by a sea urchin
Bri getting scraped up by the coral
Bri getting WAY too close to a sea turtle. (it was kinda scary!)
Our crazy hike to the waterfalls
Waking up at 4 in the morning to go see the sunrise at Haleakela Crater. Very cool!!
Seeing the planet Jupiter and it's moons through a telescope and knowing it is 500 million miles away! That is INSANE!! and amazing!
Seeing the whales.
The crazy bamboo forest!
The windy 1st day and the seeing the ocean splash up against the rocks.

Best trip ever! we even got in a 2 hour nap. We met amazing people EVERYWHERE. It was like living in zion. We didn't meet one grouchy or mean person. Except, a lady that got mad after I told her that I didn't want to give her my credit card to save money on excursions. She wouldn't even give me a map to Lahaina! We had to laugh! I love Hawaii I could go there every year and be in Heaven!

a few pics of the trip

Eating at a fun restaurant called Cool Cats in Lahainha. Best Burgers EVER! I love my Hogers face in this pic as he stares up at the ceiling fans! The Flamingos in our hotel. The first night we got there I couldn't believe I was seeing Flamingos! They are pretty birds!

The day we left we had to go in the morning and play on the beach some more. Bry had to get in one last snorkeling adventure. The water was so amazingly warm! Bry is very artistic!!

The Macaws that we walked by every morning before going to breakfast at the hotel! Beautiful birds for sure!

plane ride home. Love Hogan's face in this pic too! He's so content!

So all of the pics are on the other computer we have. So more to come soon....
