My blog photo uploader appears to be magically working again - I had pretty much given up on it if you couldnʻt tell from my lack of posts for the past 3 months! One day I will get to all that youʻve missed, but for today...Thanksgiving 2010. We did our annual family trip to Maui and stayed at The Four Seasons. It was everything it always is...indulgent, impressive, relaxing, fun, beautiful weather, and most importantly, some great family time. Grandpa and MomMom were able to join us. The kids were so excited to see them. This year Dayton attended the kids camp and loved every minute of it. It was sort of sad that he didnʻt want to spend much time with us but I completely understood. Each day was a different themed day full of both indoor and outdoor activities. He was exhausted by the end of each day but full of smiles. And that is what vacation is all about. The girls spent their mornings in the pool and their afternoons napping. The adults had time to do a bit of everything...pool time, shopping time, spa time, and the guys even snuck in a little bit of football time. I decided to try our annual family photo again and for once the kids were somewhat agreeable. Of course I did have to bribe them a little bit.
This was a test picture I took of MomMom with Saige. It actually turned out really cute. Wish Iʻd thought to tell Saige to take off her purple flipflops though.
This picture was taken on our way out to dinner one night. Not the best picture by any means, but at least all the kids are looking in the correct direction.
A sweet shot of the grandparents and grandkids.
Iʻm not going to nitpick this photo (although I could) - everyone is smiling AND looking!
My beautiful Saige. Age 3.
I pat myself on the back for this one! If you recall last year, all attempts resulted in tears and fussing and nobody would look at the camera. I still managed a beautiful shot last year, but only because I made it a black and white. Everything looks better in black and white. Well, this year I am proud to show off my 3 beautiful babies in color! Dayton (5), Saige (3), & Addley (16 months)
Iʻm very thankful this year. For many things.
