Hawaii Honeymoon

Well, here is the much anticipated posting of our 10 year anniversary trip to Hawaii. I had a work trip to Hawaii and was planning on being there for about 2 weeks. Knowing that this might be the best chance we had for a trip like this, we made arrangements for Grandma B to come out and watch the kids for a few days while Sherrie came out to spend the weekend in Hawaii. It was a much needed 'break' for the two of us, and the 70-80 degree tempweratures were a nice relief from the cold and snowy Iowa winter. We went to the Polynesian Cultural Center, BYU Hawaii, the Laie Hawaii LDS Temple, the Arizona Memorial, the Ko'Olina Resort (for dinner and to see the shark pools and beach), and just days free of kids! I did get a chance to go to a quilt store for my mom and Sherrie, so I had to document that. Below are some pics with some of the excitement. Thanks to Grandma for watching the kids, and for friends helping out with snow removal and all that fun stuff. We both hope it won't be another 10 years before we do something like this again, but it was sure worthwhile this time!

Abigail Update

I though I should give an update on Abigail. The picture below is a week after the incident. Her lip is healing nicely, and there should be minimal scarring.
