February 11th, 2010 Day 2 Hawaii

This morning we got up around 6:30, slowly got our selves together and went over to Aunt Nancy's for our delicious morning routine, we had pancakes with hot syrup and fresh pineapple, then we walked down to see the Turtles then down the coast for a little walk. Then we all jumped in our Mini Van and drove down to the Spouting Horn, its a spot where the water shoots up through a hole, and it also a little flee market, we all got us a little souvenir. After that we went back to Nancy's for a quick lunch, then went back to our Hotel, got in our swimming suites and headed for the pool... oh.....there are no words to describe how wonderful the pools are, we dropped our towels right outside our room and got into this lazy river that winded through waterfalls and caves, all I can say is WOW!!!

Me and Jace climbed down the rocks to get a closer look at the Turtles


This is the spouting horn

LOVE IT!!!This is our Hotel room at the Hyatt
Then we went to the Poipu village and watched a little hula show, the kids got to get up onto the stage and learn a hula dance and of course we shopped some more, with no kids let me add Bonnie and Nancy took the kids back to the Condo with them so we could take a moment to shop.

February 9th, 2010 HAWAII

This is our 1st morning, Trevor woke up at 6:30, we got dressed and went over to Nancy's Condo for breakfast. We had hard boiled eggs, papia, pineapple and juice out on her lani ( I feel like I am in a dream). After breakfast we waked down to the shore and watched the big turtles coming up to get air, then walked along the shoreline.

This spot had great big Turtles right off the shore that would come up to get air, the kids were able to spot them really well.


This is a baby Monk Seal that had gotten up on shore and was taking a nap.
This is Poipu Beach the #1 rated beach in the United States.



I dont know if you can see it but to the right, 2 whales are blowing up water, this picture is taken while on Aunt Nancy's Lani.
Aunt Nancy read the cutes book about the Turtles that we seen earlier today, to the kids
When we got back to our hotel late last night, we come home(our Hyatt Hotel room) to this, we decided to change rooms when seen our room, and they were apologizing for the inconvenience. Our pools are open 24 hrs and so we decided to go swimming at 9 oclock at night, it was quite an experience, it was really windy and dark with soft lights throughout these canal type pools, we had a bencher ( adventure ) exploring all the dark crevises and waterfalls.

January 11th, 2010 A Day at the Beach

This is the Pier in Oceanside
This is day 5 of our California trip, I wanted to do something vacationee before we headed home, so we headed for the beach, just me and the boys.... a little scary yes. The 1st little street I went down to get close to the beach had a playground and McDonalds right on the beach, so we parked and headed. The boy's had a great time on the playground for about 10 minutes and then wanted to be in the ocean which I did not plan on at all. I decided we could get closer and at least get our feet wet, Trevor immediatly found a low in the sand where water had gathered, flopped down on his belly and started rolling in it like a seal, so much for just the feet. Needles to say it was a great day... Jace found quite a few seashells, and even a sanddollor to take back for show and tell, we also walked the whole lenght of the peir and spent time watching Pelican's up close.

January 12th, 2010 Pictues Just Because

Yes.... Trevor grabbed the Cactus, he had hundreds of little tiny prickely's in his tiny little hand... I was so awful, I felt so bad.

January 10th, 2010 The Wilkinson's Christmas Party

It is so great getting together with the Wilkinson's, this is one get together I never want to miss. John and Dennis always have such delicious food, and I love catching up with everyone. Not to mention the 75 degree weather in the middle of January.


Aunt Terry is so cute with my kids, I think most of this day she spent playing catch and hide and seek with Jace.

January 9th, 2010 Hangin' with Uncle Adam

Adam was so great, he totally took the whole time we were there and devoted it to us, he took us to this Dairy Farm were the kids could pet all the animals, Jace loved it so much. Adam definitely stepped up to the plate.









Trevor in the night had got sick in the night and by the time I got him to an Urgent Care Facility he had a fever of 105, they ripped his clothes of and but him in an ice bath, it was so heart breaking to see my baby so sick. They got his fever down, said he had the start of an ear infection and sent us home. Even with his fever down and on Tylenol all he wanted was for Adam to hold him, Adam was so sweet, I think he enjoyed it just as much...

We had such a great time at the Fair, such a great time that we spent 10 hrs there, crazy I know... We bought the kids wrist bands so they could ride the rides as much as they wanted over and over again, so of course we stayed until they closed it down.

I couldn't believe what a little dare devil Jace was, he kept trying to do a back flip, 20 feet in the air.

Jace loved this slide a lot, and snuck 4 in before they realized that he was to short, so lucky me, I even got to go on it a couple of times so Jace could keep going.


Both me and Rachelle's hubby's were out of town so we stayed at the fair until after dark to listen to the Boyz 2 Men concert, on the outside of the stadium. Jace and Lex got there groove on. I love Jaces Hard dancing.
Ok, this is a total sign that I am getting old, this Farris Wheel scared me to death, they aloud me to go on with Trevor, and the little cups that they send you up in only have flapping doors that don't lock and and no seat belts.... the kids were really good in it but I felt that any minutes they where going to jump out... Never again!!!

Trev loved it though.
