We had a Great Time Together!

I know Amy will do a much better job blogging about her trip, although I wanted to share my own feelings. I can't explain what I feel when family comes to Hawaii. I enjoy the island, although I think I enjoy seeing them have fun on this beautiful island when they come. From the moment they arrived you could feel their excitement to have first off survived a long plane ride with five kids...and second to have landed in such a beautiful place.
The kids could hardly wait to get to the beach. Each one of the kids has such a unique personality. Emery is such a sweet young lady, you can feel her happiness when she walks into the room.
I can't remember not seeing a smile on her face everytime I looked at her. Especially when she was loving the puppies.....they do miss you guys (especially in the morning).
Then there is Kelci....really if she had a nickname it would be Cautious Kelci. She knows who she is, and before she does anything you can see her thinking it out. I loved seeing her overcome her fears and just dive in and have fun. Oh and I can never put my finger on who she sounds like when she talks, but I finially did it. She sounds like a Care Bear! Perfect for her...... For the little ones, I think it was a tireing trip and Cambree was the cutest when she left. We asked all the kids what was the best part of the trip "Beach, waterfall, magic show, etc" were the common answers. Then there was Cambree's, she said it was "Briana's house". So there you go Briana, your home is now a vacation attraction in Hawaii, hope you are ready for that. I love her little loving honest heart
Then there is Brody (or should I say my new birth control hah jk). This trip was the first time I have ever seen or really heard him do anything. His personnality shown like crazy.
I had no idea he had such strong Italian genes "Look mommy there is a sharka in the watera". We adored him and all of his defiance, we get to think it is cute because he is not ours! Ok I hate taking people to the airpoort, I can't even see driving home because I have so many tears pouring out of my eye balls. When I got back home the first thing I saw was the baby swing with no Landry. He has to be the happiest little guy, he smiles all the time. I love being mommy's twin because he loves me like her when he can't see her. I hope he stays that way forever!

We had such a great time. I know Amy will eventually put more pictures on her blog and talk more so I will close this off and get my real day started.
