Hawaii's Big Island was so fun!

Sunset cruiseEvery morning we went for a run or bike ride.One of my favorite things to do during our trip. Sit by the pool and read...ALL BY MYSELF!Black sand beach...was beautiful except for the dead beached whale.Stopped by to see the temple. It was tiny.

Ken and George Tom and Jen our hosts (owners of BDD the company that made this vacation possible) Troy and I decided to take the girls camping up Logan Canyon so we invited the rest of my family too. Almost all of them couldn't sleep over but they came up for dinner and smores. We did some Geo Caching too. The kids loved it! Breakfast time!
My sister Amber and her daughter Lydia spent the night too!

We hiked to the Wind Caves up Logan Canyon. It was a pretty hard hike but Kailey made it most of the way.

Monthly Brandley cousin lunch, just missing Alisha.

Kailey, Valisa's little girl Berkley, and McCall.

We sold "old faithful" our wonderful Nissan Maxima. We will miss you little car, but we need a vehicle that will pull our trailor and eventually fit more car seats.

I trained for and ran a 5K with my cousins. Alisha, Me, Valisa, and Millie

Dancing buddies!

The joy's of Potty Training!We had to resort to watching movies until she went poop.Meanwhile, I burnt everything I attempted to cook because she kept running to the bathroom or having accidents! I hope I survive this.We had to add in some laxatives to help her out. She kept holding it in until she was in so much pain. It was sad.The flowers Troy got me (because I was having such a hard time with potty training) Hey, it is hard work to get a three year old to do anything, let alone stop playing long enough to stop wetting her pants! Let's go fly a kite!The girls had so much fun flying their kite with Daddy, too bad this is how the kite ended up.
