Quickie post to share a few pics from this last week! Our great friends from Roseville were here on the island this last week and we got to go visit them in Lanikai where they were staying in their extended family's beach front home... holy moly! My kids were ready to move in. It was beautiful and amazing... but nothing compared to just actually being able to hang out and chat with my good friend Beth! It feels like it's been ages. My kids desperately missed their kids, since theirs was a grown-ups only trip this time, but hopefully next time will be the whole family, but they better know that we'll just be coming and bunking at their beach house the whole time they're here!
Chris keeping an eye on the boys so Beth and I could gab.
Toby living the good life...
Molly totally unafraid to get her clothes wet :)
And then yesterday my friend Shannon and her kids met Toby, Molly and I at the zoo for a fun morning! Shannon and I have known each other for about 4 years online and this was our first chance to meet face-to-face. SO much fun! I'm excited to know she and her family try to come to the Islands just about every year so hopefully we'll get to cross paths again!! We had a great time and the kids got along really well. If it weren't for the darn heat yesterday, the fact that I'd forgotten Molly's stroller, and the unfortunate bit about Toby and Molly taking turns being sick and cranky this week, we'd have loved to have stayed all day visiting! Thanks for working us into your vacation plans Shannon! We had a great time!
And now the official visitors-are-all-gone funk has settled in, but looking at the pics helped. Now if I can ease back into some semblance of a routine around my house, I think I could snap out of this funk altogether. Wish me luck!

Loving all your photos, and I can't believe how big Molly is now!
how cool you got to meet shannon!!
man, it looks hot there. what are the temps lately?
@junemama - It's not crazy hot, typically low 80's. But the humidity is doing me in. Seriously. And we've had this "vog" coverage for the last week ago that makes the heat and humidity just stifling. (vog= volcanic smog :) )
ugh. humidity is killer for sure. and i know it's even worse where you are. MO summers are pretty intense. definitely leaves me wishing for DRY utah heat sometimes. i decided today (our first real warm/muggy day yet) that i've GOT to grow out my bangs. I just canNOT have hair on my forehead all summer long!!
Yay!! It was so much fun meeting you! I can't seem to find my stupid cord to download the pics from my camera...ugh. When I find it I will upload and actually make a post on Xanga
