Phonetically Challenged

Not the best sounding restaraunt. I have no idea what the food is like
either, we ended up going next door. Welcome to Maui!

World's Most Desired Book

I know you all have been looking for it, luckily I found it at the
Polynesian Cultural Center! Finally, a book that you can really use!

Aloha from Oahu - Turtle Bay

What a day! We arrived in Honolulu, forgot our camera on the plane,
went back to get it, I (Michael) accidently jumped on the freeway
instead of circling the airport to pick Shannon up (she went to get
the camera from baggage claim). No worries though, it only took me 30
minutes to figure out how to get back to the airport. We got to
Turtle Bay on the N Shore, which is a fantastic resort. They upgraded
our room, we went to dinner (had some amazing crab legs) and took a
walk on the beach. The picture is of Shannon in a "warrior" stance,
just like the statue. Awesome isn't it! What a great day. I'm looking
forward to Ukelele lessons tomorrow morning!

Hand Mouth Coordination

Annie is still working on the hand to mouth coordination. She's improving though. More and more is getting on her face as opposed to say the ground.

Annie and San Fran

So I realize it's been a super long time since we posted anything. But here is a really cute picture of Annie in a pit of balls. So cute. Last week after getting back fron San Fran we took Annie to a playground and played around a bit. She loved it for the most part. She played in the balls, crawled all over and even jumped on the mini trampoline with Shannon's assistance. It was a really fun day and not something I've had in quite a while-nearly an entire day with Annie. I decided that needs to happen as often as possible. Enjoy the photo.

This second photo has a story. I was in SFC for interviews and I needed to rent a car to get to Sacramento one afternoon. I rented a midsized car thinking it would be economical, etc. Well when I got to the rental shop they were out of the car I ordered so they offered me a royal blue mustang convertible. Typically the mustang isn't really my type of car. Actually, not just typically. It's not my type of car. Regardless I took it because I thought to myself, "how often do I get free upgrades anyway. I might as well take it.". It was an absolutely beautiful day and I thought I might pop the top - didn't happen. The Sacramento trip was pretty uneventful, but below is my proof to the world that when I got in the car there was slightly less than a half tank. If they charge me extra for not returning it full - I have proof!

Swimming

Annie has taken on a new favorite hobby, SWIMMING! She is so cute floating around the pool. She also discovered a love for sand, she found this love by tasting it....of corse:( If you read this blog you should know by now that 1) I don't blog often and 2) When I do I don't write a lot. So, enjoy a few pictures!
