Summertime Fun!

We are having such a fun summer; it seems we're always off doing some sort of activity. We haven't quite made it to the pool this summer, but we've been enjoying the beach alot. It's been nice and refreshing and it's so calming to watch the boys frolick in the sand, sun & waves! Nicholas got to go camping with his Nino, uncle, aunties, and cousins! We met him up there for a day of fun.

Noah getting his sandtoys all set up for a day of fun!


Our big boy Nicholas relaxing in the sand!


Noah loves to splash around in the water and run into the water, once the waves come in he races out of the water and screams "Water got me mom, water got me!"

My two boys playing together, one of the sweetest things ever!



My 3 favorite guys in the world!


Noah contemplating if he wants to get on the board, he decided not to in the end:)


The water was beautiful on this particular day, a little cold but super refreshing!


Camping at La Jolla Indian Reservation

A swing we found along the way of our nature walk!




Noah enjoying the "Great Outdoors!"



Can you see Noah in this picture??? He's in Time-Out sitting behind the big rock.




Noah's upset because he was hoping to go down the little river all on his own!


The Good Life!


And of course Noah had to try a swing just like his big brother! Of course it's on a way smaller scale:)


Noah's got some good upper body strength! He was so determined to swing like Nicholas
Hope everyone is having a safe & fun summer! Take care and we'd love to hear from all of you!

Summer Fun

July already . . .wow! It sure has been a whirlwind of good times since Nicholas got out of school on June 12th! We've been enjoying the lazy days of summer at the beach and at Wild Rivers Waterpark - even better spending all these good times with family! Here are some pictures -
Our first beach trip of the summer. One of the only good pictures of the boys!

Wild Rivers trip. Keanalei and Nicholas, don't they look so grown! Glad she got him to smile!

Noah loved the mini water slides. He was alot braver than I had thought he'd be. He had such a good time that day!
Breaking the rules while the lifeguard wasn't looking. Not supposed to go down head first. Yikes!


Big Stuff! Nicholas going down a fast water slide into 7ft of water. He had a blast going around the water park with his cousins!

Daddy and Noah getting ready to go in the lazy pool! (Everyone's favorite!)


The Crew at the lunch tables! L-R Desiree, Christian, Tasia, Nicholas, Keanalei, & Aaliyah

Ciara and Noah such cuties!

Bonfire Beach Bash! Me and my boy, he's almost as tall as me!

Noah loves to play in the sand!

And lay in it and roll in it! He's truly ALL BOY!

A favorite shot of mine, my two handsome boys!

Sweetness, Kalani & Noah! He loves his older cousin!

KJ, Noah, & SJ - Noah hangin' with the big boys!

Always running around, Keanalei, Nicholas, & Desiree

Noah and Peter Joe. Thanks PJ for being such a good big cousin! He loves you!

Playing in the cold water, they must be young! :)

Noah, Peter Joe, & Nicholas! Shaka! (look at how Noah does Shaka)

Water come & get me! Funny boy!

He loved the game of having the waves chase him. It was so sweet to see him play in the water and enjoy the beautiful ocean!

Good Times, L-R Peter Joe, Aaliyah, Nicholas Desiree, Keanalei, Tasia, & Noah boy!

The end of the evening photo! Reminds me of how truly great it is to have such a wonderfully big family and how these ordinary summer days are made extraordinary because of each and every one of them!
