it all began 12 years ago....

a few days ago my husband and i celebrated our 12th wedding anniversary

girls trip to vegas....

so much fun with the girls in viva las vegas....great food....hot weather....spa day.....drinks at the pool....shows and of course the amazing shopping!!!

the road to hana.....

if you are going to maui the trip to hana is a must...so much to see and so much fun.  the cows were too funny in the middle of the road and this is the only time it rained on our 2 week trip (and it only lasted about 2 minutes) make sure you venture to the seven sacred pools right outside of hana.....it was the highlight of our entire trip.

its all about the frogs....

lovin the sun......

here are a few of my fav pics of my kids.
