Farwell 2009 and Mahalo!!!

 
 The day after Christmas, we loaded our car and headed to Utah to visit families and friends. It was a long 10 hours drive especially with kids asking every 5 minutes "how many more minutes until Utah?"and car sickness from Mya.. but we survived! We stayed for a week and celebrated New Year Eve with our extended family.

The kids especially enjoyed reconnecting with their cousins.
 
Nate, Ike and Tayton had a blast playing "Sardines and finger skateboarding"

Kiarah and Mya had a Ball playing dolls and hanging with each other.
 
Over all everyone had fun being with each others.
 
 Uncle Brad with sweet Ethan. I had so much fun playing with this kiddo even though he wasn't feeling well.
 
 Funny Eli showing off his new toys that his grandpa gave him....COOL!

Auntie Clay with Aidan and Isaac, enjoying quite time. 

 Cousins playing in Nana and Papa's playroom.
 

Hanging out with the in-laws.
 

Enjoying family time.
 

Mya loving the nightgown that her Nana made for her for Christmas.

One the best part of visiting with families was seeing the new babies born in 2009
 
 Zoe Elizabeth born August 31, 2009
 
Annalicya Larissa born on October 18, 2009
 
Carly born November 30, 2009
 
 Luke Steve born December 21, 2009 
Aren't they all Precious!!!!


The another fun part of our trip is going out with family and friends for dinner.

It was Girl's Night out with my sisters and mom...we had a good time even thought the service was too long!


My beautiful mom!
 
It truly a blessing to have good friends.

New Year Eve went out with a BAM...playing Rock Band with my kids, hubby, sisters, cousins and mom. We ROCKED the Night away! It was a great way to say "Farewell to 2009 and Mahalo for a good year"!
