Tractor Was Barry’s First Word….

We went to visit G & G Miller last weekend to eat an early Thanksgiving dinner and celebrate Barry’s grandparent’s 64th wedding anniversary.

Greg was puttering about with his tractor, so we took Maggie to check it out and she was fascinated by the big wheels and bright colors!

I’m not sure what she loved more – being on the tractor with Greg or mugging for the camera.

Or maybe she loved having her grandpa hold her so she could play with all the gadgets the tractor had to offer.

**Editor’s Note: Sydney is afraid of the tractor after having a ride on it a few weeks ago. Perhaps one day she’ll warm up to it, but it isn’t looking like that day will be anytime soon.

The Day We Went to The Most Beautiful Beach in the World

Last week we went to the most beautiful beach in the world. In order to get to said beach we had to drive on the bumpiest road in the world and walk across a rocky lava field that was super sweltering.I’m not complaining because I got to swim in the water of the most beautiful beach in the world.

I really wish I could write more about that day, but we’ve got a Pool Party to attend with Maggie’s peeps. She is the life of the party around here and Pool Parties are the most important thing that she does. She’s got her mambo-sock hat on and everything, so typing more isn’t really an option.

Enjoy the pictures from that day last week. Lava flats, beautiful beaches, cute baby, brother buried in sand, dad boogie boarding, husband reading, blah, blah, blah.

You get the idea, right?

Ten Pictures and a Few Words Regarding Hawaii

We left town and followed Flip & Janet to a little hidden beach about an hour away from our Casa.

We were almost the only group there, which was an utter delight. After setting up camp under a few palm trees, our day filled up with leisurely swims, soggy sandwiches and falling coconuts.

Maggie got to SUP a bit on my dad’s chest and Barry got to film a bit of his underwater swim. Izak and Chach laughed about a forgotten game and my mom made sure Maggie didn’t eat too much sand.
