Thanksgiving...

Okay, so I am WAY behind on my blogging. Let's see, we will start with Thanksgiving. It was a wonderful and warm Thanksgiving for us this year. We took Brecken to Maui with our friends Sam and Kent, Nick, Lindsay and Noah. We left WA. on a very chilly morning (15 degrees) and landed in Maui to a nice 85 degrees. Let me tell you, Palm Trees can really make a person smile!!! We spent 10 fun filled days in Kihei.

This was Breckens first airplane ride and he was a trooper. He loved just looking out the window and smiling at everyone on the plane. Steve and I were more antsy than he was during the flight.

Here is a list of the highlights (cheater way to do this since I am so far behind on my blogging):
1. Boogie Boarding - Brecken loved laying on the boogie board and catching the waves with us.
2. Paddle Boarding - Brecken was a water baby, this kid loves all water sports.
3. Surfing - Steve and I did this fun and difficult activity, but B watched from the beach. We are too big of amateurs for B to do this with us.
4. Snorkeling - gotta love the tropical fish.
5. Sand crawling - Brecken crawled at least a mile everyday in the sand. He would even take a 20 second power rest by laying on his belly, putting his thumb in his mouth, catching his breath and then off he would go again.
6. BBQing every night at the condo.
7. Good Friends
8. Swimming - with our water baby, it made the beach and pool so much fun.
9. Eating - who doesn't love Hawaiian shave ice....B certainly does!!!
10. Sightseeing

Brecken has always been a pretty easy kid but he really proved on vacation how "go with the flow" he really is. He barely ever got a regular nap, when he got too tired, he would just pass out on us at the beach or pool. He never went to bed on time but wasn't cranky about it and he tried everything when it came to food. We are so lucky and blessed to have this little guy. He really makes everything more fun.
