Love


After I took Lee & Griffin's picture...I had to jump in on the aloha love. I have to admit I own no aloha wear, but in my defense i had just gotten home from work & was too lazy to change!

A-looooooooooo-ha!


We went to dinner at Ohana last night & this is when Lee breaks out his 'Aloha " shirt! of course we had to put one on Griffin as well. He never wears shirts like these, but Lee & I definitely thought he wore it well...almost thought we were at Poipu beach! Definitely a trip back to the Aloha state is in the works!!!

The start of Spring visitors

Our friend Christine & family are the 1st of many visitors this spring. They came down for a week of Disney fun! The last time we saw Christine was right before she had her beautiful daughter Kira , who is about to turn 5!!! Christine & I lived on the same dorm flloor, then became roommates...we studied abroad together & shared one of the best travel experiences ...trekking across Europe as college students. When I think back on some of our experiences- so much fun, so many crazy situations, funny people. Even now, when I think about how we were robbed on a train to Barcelona, I can laugh about it. I really hope my kids chose to study abroad!

Anyways, we had a fun catching up & I really hope it is not another 5 years. I think the Lowell's need to return the visit to Burlington, where they live...just not in the middle of winter!!!

Spring cut


Now that the weather is getting warmer we have been spending more time in the pool. griffin's hair has been getting in the way as he has been learning to swim. I figure now is as good a time as ever to have a fresh spring cut. He looks adorable...but oh my, the "bed head' this a.m. was too funny. When I brought he back from getting the cut Lee loved it but said " I am glad you did it instead of me"

We have a visitor




We have noticed that some sort of creature has been digging underneath our fence lately. Last week when Lee & Griffin were trimming back on ourpalms around the pool Griffin said "hey look..a cat" which turned out to be a racoon! he seems to visit every night & he swims in our pool! I think he may be eating the flowers off my newly planted marigolds! We need to call animal control asap, but in the meantime...Griffin & Josie have set a friendly trap for him made up of mulch, grass 7 carrots!

Fountain & Pool











Yesterday Griffin, Ella & Caroline (recovering from her T&A) headed to the fountains for some water fun. The water was cold, but that never stops the kids (well Ella may prefer the water temp a bit warmer). After than ran around for awhile, we walked over to the baby pool @ Lakeside for some more water time. Don't you just love how sun & water wipes kids out? Griffin went to bed at 5:30 last night!!!!
