End of June

Did this month really just happen. . . I can't believe it's almost July! Crazy! Well, since we've been back home its been hot. Our swamp cooler was broken and by the end of the day the upstairs felt like a sauna. I was extremely happy when the guy came by to fix it today. . .ahhh, cool air is good. Update on New Moon; I like this book much better than Twilight. I also like Jacob Black as a boyfriend (pre- 'incident') much more than I ever liked Edward. I don't know about everyone else that's read the books, but I think Edward can be kind of mushy and Jacob was just fun. Anyway, here's some pictures to remind you all how stinkin' cute Hyrum is.

Hyrum's secret hiding place he always go to.
We spent a lot of time downstairs because it was a little bit cooler. We had the air mattress set up and toys for Hyrum to play with including Dad's hat.
Lately whenever we go outside he always goes straight for the very back of the yard and just walks against the fence staring at the balls and trampoline in the yard behind us. . . he just wants to have fun all the time.

More goodness!





Ok, I know I said I would post more Hawaii pictures when I got back. . . but then I found Twilight, and I have been preoccupied. And for all those who haven't already read Twilight; the ending will frustrate you beyond belief and you'll need to be prepared for the sequel immediately! Anyway. We'll be getting the scuba and surfing pictures back 4th of July weekend. For now I thought I'd show you some super cute Hyrum pictures and Hawaii views.

ALOHA!!!



These past two weeks have been so great! Brett and I both had the vacation bug and this has hit the spot. I'll be posting more pictures once we get home, but I figured I had to post something now or else the later post will be way too long.
It's been a really relaxing trip. We've been staying on the Kaanapali Beach in Maui, which is just amazing. These are some of the highlights from the first week; Parasailing, laying out, snorkeling, laying out, surfing, laying out and Brett went horseback riding (and layed out). I've gotten pretty tan, but Brett puts me to shame. . . it's no fair that he tans so well. This week Brett went scuba diving and we survived the trip to Hana (3 hours one way,56 one-lane bridges and 617 curves).
Hyrum was pretty scared of the waves at the ocean and the cold water at the pool, but he's doing great now. He really loves the pool now. He splashes and pretend swims when we hold him on his stomach. It's SOOOO cute!! The ocean is still a little bit scary for him, but it's gotten better. The thing Hyrum has enjoyed the most is playing with all his cousins. He's had tons of fun.
