Kauai Hawaii

Most amazing trip of our lives!!!

Spencer and I went to Kawai for 8 days. Really it was 6 full days and 2 days of traveling.  We went all lots of hikes, saw many amazing beaches, boat ride along the coastline, zipline tour, surfing, boogie boarding, snorkeling, eating, touring, church and many other amazing adventures. 

All of the kids stayed at our house with Chayanne, one of our employees, and survived. They did some school, a lot of movie watching and some got sick. There was eating out at Yedi's a local Mexican restaurant, making treats and eating them, going to dance and classes, some cleaning and other basic life needs were met. Silas out baby had the hardest time!

We were all very grateful for the experience and to be reunited!!!

 

Games

 

We would love for these moments to happen everyday but there is still a lot of Barbie play, dress up and forts that are made by the younger kids, along with countless other creative play. 

Our oldest however rarely partakes of these play outlets. However when his sisters include him and want to play a card game or board game he is eager to be included. 

We have so many games that I think that we could do a game day once a week for an entire year and hopefully truly know how to play them all. 

There are many that we still don't even know how to play well. 

Stetson has finally figured out how to access his BYU Geometry class. 

It took so long mostly because I was needed to figure it out. 

The girls were so excited about a break for Thanksgiving that we got a lot of school attended to on Monday and Tuesday. Wednesday was dedicated to baking pies, cleaning house and preparing many yummy thanksgiving dishes. We had a great Thanksgiving with 22 in all being in our home! The remainder of the week will be preparing for the next amazing holiday.
