I started a blog in January, wrote one entry and then had no more time to figure it out how to blog. Now, ten months later, we are here in Paradise, aka Maui. Rob and I have dreamed of some day moving to Maui, ever since we first discovered its beauties 14 years ago on our honeymoon. We planned to move here some day, maybe after all the children were raised and on their own. But Rob received a job offer, and we could not turn it down (nor did we want to :-) ). Who knows if we'll even be alive in twenty years. We are trying to live our dreams now. This is us at the Honolulu airport waiting for our last flight. We've been traveling for about 24 hrs. and look it!
Is Miri (8) happy to be in Hawaii or happy because Daddy bought her a beautiful lei?
Adam (13) is wearing his half smile-smirk. You'll have to guess if that means he likes Hawaii or not.
Mardi and Rob are happy to be here, but even more happy that the long long trip is almost over since they haven't slept at all for over 48 hours.
Will Joelle's smiles rub off on Kamri (11)?
Jairin (10) spent three weeks with Rob in Maui already, so he's cool!! Whazup brudda?
Ellanne(1) is a little confused about everything-- where am I ? Where am I going? and why do I have flowers around my neck?
Here are some of Maui-- not just the airport.
Here is Jairin up in the avocado tree in ou backyard. Climbing this tree is one of his favorite pastimes.
We had a picnic here on Wed. Oct. 15th. The children had a blast climbing the banyan tree.
This is similar to the view from our deck. You can see the ocean on both the right and left sides.
We drove around the north shore on Tues., Oct. 14th. Beautiful coastal scenes!
Here we are in front of the banana bush in our yard. There is a cubby inside which the children like to play in --except when the girls see spiders. Luckily, there are no poisonous spiders in Hawaii.
This is a sunset such as we see every night from our deck :-)
and another........
