Our Thanksgiving Hawaii Trip

On the 15th, we migrated from the cold of Colorado to the tropics of Hawaii. We chose to vacation on the Kohala coast of the Big Island in the Waikoloa Beach Resort area. We played the role of tourists very well by taking in the Kona coast (of course we bought coffee), swimming, snorkeling, doing the Volcano Park, more swimming and going to a luau. We had so much fun and the only bad part of the trip was getting on the plane to leave.

Pumpkin Party

Last week, we attended our friend's 4th Annual Pumpkin Party. Each year, we bring a pumpkin for each kid and carve a myriad of designs and figures. It seems to get easier each year because the kids are old enough to carve their own pumpkins.
