Nana gave us a trip to Maui for Christmas, lucky us. Such a great time of year to escape the cold and head to paradise. Just wished we could have stayed longer (I know, I'll stop complaining). Maui was like a second home to me growing up (I know again, so spoiled) then Troy and I made it our wedding site, so it's always been a very special place for us and feels like returning home. Now if we could just find a way to actually make it home, however I don't think they need cobblers to fix all those flip flops. The boys were in heaven chasing the waves, digging in the sand, catching geckos, swimming in the pirate ship kiddie pool and boogie boarding. We saw tons of whales right of the coast and I even got a free whale watch boat trip thanks to my single sister catching the eye of the boat captain (thanks Paige). I thoroughly enjoyed basking in the sun, doing nothing and playing photog with my new Canon. Troy got excited about all the fabulous, fresh seafood. He was our personal chef, grilling up ahi tuna, mahi mahi, Hawaiian ono and fresh pineapple on the BBQ every night. Tasty! Flight day: Wake up with Mason coughing/high fever and Christian with pink eye. Oh joy. We were being punished. Christian didn't make a peep on the 6 hour flight with his new DS in hand and Lego Star Wars game and didn't ask once when we were going to be there. However Mason took 3 of us constantly juggling him to keep him happy and entertained. The joys of traveling with kids. So worth it once we arrived to the warm, tropical air! Picture Overload - be forwarned!

Looks like you had a really good time.
I love all of the pictures and you your cute boys and cool family and Mom for taking you. (I will let her take me ANYTIME...you can tell her that!) John makes me laugh and your sisters are so beautiful and I loved the pictures of you Troy and your kids. Seriously Brek, I could read this post and look at the pics again and again. Glad you had a good time. Cool whale pics too. DId you boys go with on that part? If so, what did they think?
Brek,
I am just seeing this and love all the pictures! Your boys are so cute! It looks like you had so much fun. That is a good time to go too.
I can't believe how big Kelly, John and Paige are..it's crazy talk! We really are getting up there. Great to see what you have been up too. xoxo, T
It sounds like you guys had a great trip!
Ahh the jealousy kicks in! How I LOVE Maui! I'm so glad you got to go with your cute little fam and the extended family. What a great time and such amazing pics! Nice job and please take me with you next time! On a serious note, how fun WOULD that be for all of us to go with our hubs? just sayin. xoxo
PS I'm sorry to hear about your cousin and her tiny babies. I will be thinking of her and praying for the best. It is a terrifying thing I'm sure to have such little babies and it helps me realize again and again how lucky we were. Keep me posted.
