Some how these past few weeks have felt CRAZY!!! I thought I would have so much time once Gracie started school, but I realize how fast the days are going by.
Deven has been busy busy busy as usual. It was fun to have Labor Day Off with him. We headed over to Bellows Beach for some boogie boarding. It was a lot of fun. I got stung by a Man of War (jelly fish). It wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be, but my leg burned for about 1/2 hour. That night we had dinner with some friends in the ward. It was fun to hang out with the
Broach's. This past weekend was a whirlwind. As usual we had way to much going on, but it was all worth it. On Friday night we went to the North Shore with some friends. I guess you could say it was kind of a goodbye night for our neighbor and good friends the
Prestcotts. I can't believe the time has come for them to go. The crazy thing is they will hopefully be back here before we move. It was so nice to order
Tia food, watch the sun set, let the kids roast
marshmallows, and then hunt for crabs. (Of course Gracie was freaking out, she isn't a big fan of crabs). The next morning we had a primary activity day. This is one we put a lot of time into. We sent all the kids on missions. It turned out really nice. After that the kids and I headed up to Turtle Bay to meet
Deven. He had a radiology retreat up there and it gave us the opportunity to go spend the night. I know we live in paradise, but for that night it was wonderful. Our hotel room over looked the ocean. We swam in the pool, spent time on the beach. Enjoyed a nice dinner down on the beach, they set a table up for us on the sand. We got to put the kids to bed and then
Deven and I stayed up way to late out on the balcony talking and enjoying the sound of the ocean. It was a much needed get away. Now it is back to reality and as Monday came and went I would give anything for just one more relaxing day. Oh well, life is still great.
This is our view from our balcony.
Gracie was having way to much fun out there. She was begging to stay another night, but all good things must come to an end.

Deven and Dylan just a
chillin (
LOL).
Me and the kids getting ready to head down to dinner.
Up on the North Shore, roasting
marshmallows.
The boys passed out,
temporarily that is. Poor
Deven he gets so tired he can fall asleep anywhere.
The boys again enjoying the sun set.
Hey what can I say, we start them early at our house.
Gracie and some of the kids playing in the waves.
This was out at Bellows beach, Gracie is getting quite good on the boogie board.

i am sorry you got stung by a jelly fish. I am so glad that you guys had some time away for an overnight. Next time you go let me watch the kids and you can go just you two.
I love Turtle Bay-spent a few nights there myself. Im so jealous!
I am so happy for you that you got to spend a day away. Somtimes a day is all we need to help us get through hard times. I am also a little jealous that resort looks so nice. I am sorry that you got stung. That is such a fear of mine. There are jellys everywhere here and they scare me. You guys look so good, seeing your pictures just makes me miss you more. I hope all is going well.

Beautiful! I'm so glad to hear you got to get away. You have had a super busy summer. Sorry I haven't checked on you for too long.;) Amazing that Gracie is going to school. Dylan is such a cute baby. Thanks for keeping me updated and wishing I could come and visit every time I read your blog. :)
Do not let Sarah see Gracie in that swim suit of hers. It will only lead to a fight when Sarah tells Gracie her swimsuit is immodest and Gracie argues with some tears.
Man Shirlyn, every time I see pictures of where you live I get so jealous. It is beautiful there! I can't believe you would want to move away! So sorry about the sting but I'm glad the pain didn't last too long.
