Maui

Wow... life has been busy.  We began late September with a trip to Maui, returned home to sell the house, spent only 4 weeks preparing for moving day, moved into Joseph's parents' house just in time to celebrate James' birthday, and now have hosted Joseph's sister and family for Thanksgiving week. In a few days we will be gearing up for James' baptism day with both grandparents traveling to visit us!  Very exciting!

Brief recap of Maui:  alone time, family time, pool time, snorkel time, food time, hiking time, ukulele time.  In honor of my parents' 50th wedding anniversary, we traveled to Maui for a reunion with parents, siblings and spouses only.  It was amazing!  The weather was great, the water was warm, and everyone was healthy!  It was so special to have that time with my family.  It's nice to know that though we see each other rarely, the bond of family makes our together time fun and memorable.  We loved every minute!
