Shout out!

Just want to send a quick congrats to my sister Jacqui and her  new fiancee Dave Baer.  I know that the two of you are going to be so happy and live a wonderful life.  Also the ring is amazing I know first hand that Dave had to sell a kidney spleen and part of a limb (no not the important one) to be able to afford this precious stone.  However I think that it is more than worth it Jacqui is a pretty nice gem herself!  Love to you both!

Aloha!
















Many of you know that we had the privilege to go to Hawaii with the Andersons.  It was a wonderful trip with many memories that will be cherished forever.  We stayed on the big island in Mauna Launi in a three bedroom house that was fully equipped.  The children had a great time thanks to the Anderson girls and their fun personalities.  However the most entertaining was
 
(like always) Bryce!  He was great at Hula dancing, fish feeding and cooking he truly did it all! Plus Brittany was awesome and still turns heads constantly.  I can't believe how good looking she is and to think that I had to lay there next to her for seven days...  I must admit we did have rain every single day and only received a few hours in the morning to lay out and spend some quality time with the sunshine but it was still worthwhile.  I thought that we would come home all tan but instead came home still a little powdery, what are the odds that we could actually tan.  The rain was beautiful however it was a warm down pour that made the purest cleanest smells and gorgeous greenery I have ever seen.  We were able to visit some dolphins close up at the Hilton and play on several beaches.  The pool will always get the best reviews from Navie because she likes to swim so much (her and Paige preferred the pool to anything)!  Sailor the CUTEST two year old that I have ever seen acquired the nickname Boo because of the darling resemblance to the Monsters Inc. character.  Jag was such a good baby considering that the whole vacation he was suffering from an ear infection and severe congestion.  The children were angels on the flight to and from and considering the duration we had several people comment of how good they thought our children were.  Overall the trip was a success and we want to thank the Andersons for the wonderful experience and memories and tell them how much we are proud of them and who they are and the wonderful example they are to all of us.   We truly love you and look forward to our next vacation (if you can handle the Burkinshaws again)!

Do you REMEMBER?


Has anyone ever heard of the "Tunnel Streakers?"  Three of four of these men are guilty...
