Hawaii Trip

Well, we were so blessed to go to Hawaii 2 weeks ago with my parents for our anniversaries (both Ken and I and my parents have the same anniversary! April the 6th). It was our 5 year anniversary! Hard to believe! It seems like only yesterday we were at the church the day before the wedding decorating like crazy?!?! We went out for an awesome dinner with all you can eat alaskan crab (Kenny had seriously been waiting since last year for that crab again!!!), and one whole side of the restaurant was a two story fish tank! Pretty cool. A girl dives in and everything and feeds the fish while you eat. Ruby loved it!

She learned quite a few new things while we were gone. So many new words!!! Some of her favorit things were ridding in the elevator and getting to push the buttons! As soon as we would walk up to the elevator, she'd stick her little thumb out and say "beep beep beep??" And of corse we let her push the button every time! She also learne dto count to 3...I think that had something to do with riding in the elevator too, and seeing the different floors pass. Another word she learned was "plane". From the beach, you can see the airports flight path pretty well, and there are literally planes taking off or landing every 5 minutes....so whenever she heard a plane or saw one, she'd point up to it and scream "PLANE!!!" it was so cute....and literally, every 5 minutes....she never got tired of spotting planes. And sometimes we couldn't even see them for a second or two, they were so small! But she spied them out...she's got some eagle eyes on her or somthing!!! We spent most days on the beach in the morning and the pool in the afternoon....taking some time to do shopping of corse!!! (how caould I go on vacation and not shop?!?!:) It wasn't exactly as restful as a trip as we had hoped for....It's amazing how much a 19 month old will keep you on your toes! It took all 4 of us to keep up with 1 of Ruby!!! She was such a blast. so here's some more pictures of our time. Enjoy!
