Aloha!!

Grandma Mary and Grandpa Rex just returned from a beautiful vacation in Hawaii! Of course they came home filled with gifts for the anxious grandkids. Sadly, while they waited patiently by the front door for a glimpse of the Easter Bunny he tricked them by sneaking into the basement to leave eggs. Darn Bunny.







Although traveling for Kai is still less than a great time, we all enjoyed a nice weekend in Creston with all of Ryan's adult siblings and their kiddies. My highlight...Grandma Mary watched the kids Saturday morning and I got to sleep until 9. I will take that any day over a visit from the bunny, but perhaps that is just a sleep deprived mommy speaking.
An interesting side note...Ryan picked out Kai's name after watching a UCLA football game and a highlight on one of two players they have with the same name. It is Hawaiian and means "the ocean." Rex and Mary found it everywhere in Hawaii, even bringing back pictures of signs with it and a book with a turtle named Kai. Kind of fun for him....it isn't like you can run to Walmart and buy a personalized pencil with name like Kai!
