Family vacation

Aloha!

Here are the photos, as promised, from September. We took our first family trip to Kauai and stayed at a wonderful hotel in Kapaa. While we went because Cory was running his second marathon, we were also able to see some of the sights. Enjoy!

Mile 24, finally the last hill...2600 total vertical in this race

At the finish line and 11 seconds faster than Honolulu 2009


Feeling good but glad to be done!


Kian hanging out at home

Kian...all 20+ pounds of him

Leif trying on the costume he refused to wear last year; so cute!

Leif striking a pose in this years costume...wait until you see the whole family


Fast as Dash!

The boys :)

We hope you are all enjoying your fall and we will post again soon. Be sure to wish Cory good luck; he defends his dissertation in nine days! So...aloha for now, all pau!

Super Good Luck Cory...no matter what the outcome you have always made me proud. The boys are so changing and Leif growing up. Where does time go? Can't wait to see them. Love Mom

Too Cute! Love that baby close-up. Wish I was there! Althought, today is gorgeous for October in the NW so I can't complain too much. ;)
