Summertime in Hawaii 2010

Hi Everyone! I love yogurt at the beach.

Pre-wall mess. Aunty Barb came for a visit and we put her to work rock wall building.

Post wall mess. Stay back jungle, stay back.

Hollis snacking on a hike in the national park.

Fun hike, Hollis always gets tired on the hardest parts.

COOL GUY!

Another hike in the park.

I love this picture of us.

Hollis trailblazing like usual.

Hollis Turns Two!

A little late, I know, but having a two year old has left me looking for extra time to blog. I finally found it while at work, "working" on cleaning my classroom. Hollis is such a smart, fun kidlet. He is developing his imagination, often playing with his trucks and dogs. Hollis is talking a lot more now and making us laugh with his spunky personality. These pictures are from his second birthday and beach weekend that followed. Hollis loves the beach and will ask to go to the beach.

A determined little guy trying to blow out his candle.

Hollis a joy in our lives. It is amazing how quickly two years have passed, yet it seems like Hollis has been with us all along. We enjoy our time together and look forward to the birthdays to come.

Our trip to California

The wondeful LA zoo. I had an experience making eye contact with a large gorilla through a thick piece of glass. Amazing. It was so fun to see Aunty Dina, Aunty Tricia and little Michelle. We walked for 5 hours, through rain and sun. What a great day!

Zach and Lindsi's wedding. A fun event that we thought would never happen. Congratulations newlyweds. Such a nice looking family.

A great shot of Aunty Monica with the wind in her hair. We had so much fun hanging out with the babies and dogs.

Alyssa and Dylan, ready for a ride.

Aunty Heather and Hollis playing on the slide.

Hollis and Daddy playing on skis.

It was a whirlwind of flying and driving, with a nice dose of family. We had so much fun, despite the quickness of the trip. Hollis was a trooper, even with an ear infection. We cannot wait for our next adventure.
