Christmas in Hawaii

I think the best place to start for this year is sharing some of our most fabulous pictures from our family Christmas vacation in Maui this year. I was slightly nervous about the idea....very little presents and 80 degree weather on Christmas Day, but I have to say...IT WAS PERFECT. I'm thinking it's a Christmas my kids will remember for years.

A little David Haselhoff on the beaches of Hawaii....

I have to be honest...I was a little nervous about how these two would take to the ocean since they insisted they would get eaten by sharks, but I think their faces say it all.
This one couldn't get any sweeter.....

Crack kills....even in Hawaii.
Leave it to Aunt SaDee to take a fun experience and make it dysfunctional.
Just in case you're wondering...yes, that is a fanny pack over a speedo.
Robby slightly nauseated on our whale watching adventure.
Yes..Kaiden is not longer a child and I'm convinced he thought the trip rule of no texting was totally uncool of his parents.
Way too cool for a shirt, but just cool enough for a hat and sunglasses.
Nothing like a Hawaiian Snowcone on Christmas Day.
Truly...the trip couldn't have been more perfect.

Michael Jordan

How many times did Michael Jackson retire and then come back to the great sport of basketball? I think I remember at least three. (There may have been a baseball stint somewhere in there as well.) So, I think it's completely acceptable for me to reannounce I am officially coming out of blog retirement. Most professional athletes come out of retirement and suck. I'm hoping my future in blogging isn't as bad. We will have to wait and see......
