In August, eight years ago, these two cousins, Morgan and Cade were born 6 days apart. We had to do their photo shoot together, of course, since they have chosen to be baptized this year! I know I am a bit biased, but talk about adorable!! They came separately and their moms didn't plan on them matching. REALLY! (the orange tie and the orange flower in Morgan's hair)
Morgan Jade Peters turns 8 years old!!!
Cade Michael Van Leeuwen turns 8 years old!!
Sabrina Leigh Peters turns 15 years old!!

Any helpful hints on how to make those photos bigger! I've literally been sitting here for hours. Sorry! It was fun day anyway!

The Pioneer Experience!
Me and Den's Pioneer Trek in June 2005. Can you find us?
Travis, Kim and Sabrina's Pioneer Trek 2011
For those of us that have had the privilege of a Pioneer Trek, I can testify it is one of the hardest and most rewarding experiences of a lifetime. Just getting a tiny tiny glimpse into the life, struggle and sacrifice of a pioneer is an invaluable lesson. I hope and pray all those I love can experience that journey. I wish to remember it always.

Yep! That young man next to me is my GRANDSON, Gunnar!

Dennis and Gunnar on the grounds of the Four Seasons on Linai!
The theme from "Somewhere in Time" came to my mind when we drove up to our hotel! A little bit of heaven!!
This year it was the Beus' turn to choose a destination and a time when we could take them on a vacation. At first it was just going to be Tiffany and her kids, but then Chad choose to come hang out with us for the last 6 days. It was a little tortuous for him to try and relax, but truth is, he deserves it and we did witness a laugh or two. We stayed the first four days in a Bed and Breakfast Inn that our nephew and his wife, Paul and Angie Peters own called The Blue Tile Inn. The kids LOVED the beach, the geckos, the crabs and all sorts of nature they found while exploring the south side of Maui. We stayed two nights in a Condo near Kaanipali and then four nights on the island of Lanai! Lanai was a slice of heaven in every way! Thanks to Chad and Tiffany's friends, we had a considerable discount staying at the Four Seasons Hotel!
