This the Place of Refuge

Grrr!
Happy birthday to you!
We celebrated Marcus's birthday by going to Kona. It worked out great because his birthday was over spring break. We had a wonderful time. We went to the Place of Refuge while in Kona. It is an ancient sacred ground. It was great to be able to spend time together.

Aloha oi Shannon

Congrats to Shannon! She has completed the massage therapy program and is soon to be licensed! It has been so much fun having Shannon live with us while she has attended school. It was so hard to let here go back to Utah! She has been awesome about running errands with me, doing laundry with me, going visiting teaching with me, cooking dinner with me, laughing with me, going to cub scouts with me, hanging with me. She is the best sis that I could ever ask for! Marcus stays busy with school and has many late night cram sessions. It has been wonderful to have Shannon here to keep me company and best of all be an awesome lil' sis. Good luck to you Shan!

Lava

What an awesome experience it was to see the lava! We were so fortunate that we went down to the flow the first day that they opened it to the public because the very next day the flow basically stopped and is now on a different path! It was so hot! Just standing next to it it felt like I was going to melt! We had to walk 10 miles round trip to be able to see the flow. (Four miles of that 10 were just walking past parked cars along the side of the road. There were a lot of people there to see it!)
