Hawaii: Day Four (part I)

December 11, 2011 By Christie

Day four was spent largely in part of the car enjoying the beautiful scenery.  I loved it.  You drive to the Hilo side of the island and feel like you walked into a Jurassic Park movie.  Stunning!  The only thing that was a little bummer was the fact that it was a bit foggy so the pictures didn’t turn out as well as they could have. DSC_0283 DSC_0292DSC_0293 We drove down this beautiful rode and turned the corner.  My mom and Karl knew what they were taking us to, but when we turned the corner, I audibly gasped and said, “Stop the car!” DSC_0300 Since it’s foggy, the pictures don’t do it justice but oh my goodness.  Standing there for a few minutes alone, I felt such reverence and gratitude to Heavenly Father and Jesus for creating such beautiful places on earth.  I literally got tears in my eyes as I stood there and smelled the ocean, felt the breeze on my face, and overlooked one of the most beautiful places I have ever seen.  I wish you could all be there to see it.  It was breathtaking.

DSC_0478DSC_0483 They even have a section they can bury me when my retirement is over in that house above ;).  Don’t worry, they had all sorts of sections but we didn’t notice them until  this sign caught our eye.

Memorable Moments June 2015

~Ruby says "Thank You" when you give her anything. Except it's more like "Day Oooo." I love it. She's also trying harder to say please (or Peeeeze) for things she wants. What a polite little girl :).

~Yesterday Bailey came down with the Clone Trooper costume on, which is 4 sizes too big I'm pretty sure, and her bull horns on. It was awesome. And sums up this girl pretty darn well.

~Carson told us that he was the laughing stock of Primary on Sunday. He meant to say the Class Clown :).

~Devon's so funny these days. If you catch him doing something he shouldn't be, he gets an innocent little smile and then starts rolling his eyes everywhere except looking at you. :)
