President's Day

On Monday, we headed out to Stone to spend the day with Sean's grandparents. When Sean got home from his mission, his grandparents gave him on old Chevy truck to drive. Sean has decided to fix it up and drive it again. So him and his grandpa spent some time working on it- while his grandma showed me how she makes her YUMMY bread. Which I have since made by myself and it was even good! We had such a great time out there. We played out in the snow and got pulled on sleighs behind the 4-Wheeler. I haven't done anything like that in a long time. The gals had a blast and Gracie kept yelling, "YEE HAW!" Sean's grandparents are so great! I have lost both sets of my grandparents and I always feel so blessed to have them!




Me and the gals with Sean's grandpa- I was so glad that he let me wear his Dickies overalls!

Sean and the gals with his grandpa- I am sad we didn't get any pictures with his grandma.

Photo Challenge

My cousin is having a photo challenge on her blog so I decided that I would also take part of the challenge. Since today is February 5, I looked in the 2 folder in my pictures and the 5th picture and this is what I came up with.

This picture is taken just above the Laie Temple on Oahu, Hawaii. We had been to the Polynesian Cultural Center and it was SOO hot so we hopped on a bus and came over to the temple. It is SOOO gorgeous. In 2006, Sean, Brooklyn, and I, my mom, my sister, my cousin Janalee, and our friend Karen went to Hawaii. My cousin Jessica was getting married in Maui and we decided that it would be great if we could go and support her. We spent some time on Oahu and then flew over to Maui. It was the best of both worlds because we had Brooklyn with us and we also had people there to help us with her. If you ever get the chance to go to Hawaii- DO IT!! It is so gorgeous. We had a blast on Oahu and saw the touristy places- the PPC, Pearl Harbor, we stayed in an AWESOME house on the North Shore, Waikiki, lots and lots of snorkeling, and saw the most breathtaking sunsets. Maui was more laid back and more restful for us- not as much running around. I have never in my life seen as much beauty as I did on our drive of the Road to Hana, more snorkeling, we went on a snorkeling cruise, and I went Parasailing with Nat. Geez- writing this post makes me want to be there right now.

Our little family in front of the Temple- isn't it something? I crave to go back to Hawaii it was such a fun time. (This was a fun thing to do- if you don't know what to do for your next blog post- pick a random picture.)
