Can you believe it..... Life really does come full circle...Reagan is now going to pre-school where her daddy did 27+ years ago, Lakewood Christian Schools aka 1st Baptist church of Lakewood...pre-school... A couple of Aaron's teachers are still at the school. Wow was it weird to walk back in with the next generation holding onto my hand.. Wonderful & Weird!!

Paige even had a wonderful time @ school and fit right in I might add!!

The 1st day was a short day and siblings and parents stayed with them.

Tallulah starts "Nova" Swim School

Miss Tallulah had a big day, she is in the same swim school (different location) as her cousins Paige and Reagan.. She did super!! Tallulah is a very very strong little girl, when she wraps her legs around you it's hard to get them undone. She's my little Kaela Bear.

This has been one of the biggest months to Tallulah, she started walking, started swim lessions and had a huge 1st Birthday party all packed into September 2009..

Tallulah starts Walking

Tallulah has started walking, she is so strong, and so adourable!! check out the video clip.

Tuesday 090109....The Road to Hana

Steve and I did the drive to Hana today and stopped at one of our favorite restaurants for an early dinner, Mama's Fish House in Pa'ia. The best maitais we've ever had, amazing papaya & sirloin appetizer, a lobster guacamole...yummy, and then I had a macadamia nut crusted, crab-stuffed, lobster-topped mahimahi. The food, the wait staff, the ambiance, the beachfront location, everything was perfect....especially the company of my amazing and wonderful husband (who thought the moist towels were for bathing in the restaurant).

1st Sunset in Napili Bay

This sunset is taken from our Lanai on our 1st evening in Napili..

Today after our long walk, we enjoyed breakfast at the "Sea House" then we grabbed our snorkels, masks and flippers and walked right into the ocean in front of our condo. We held hands and snokel'd for about an hour and a half.

After cleaning up we went into Lahaina to browse the shops and have cocktail hour at "Kimos" then back for a very beautiful sunset....

I'm still on So Cal time so I'm tired by 8pm here..

1st morning in Napili...

Steve spotted these beautiful snails...I think they're holding hands...."NOT"

Along the trail

Steve and I got up early and took off on a power walk... this Kapalua Coastal trail is so incredibly beautiful. From our condo the hike took us about 5 miles round trip.. Napili is just south of Kapalua.

"Napili" Home for 10 days

Steve & I checked into Napili Shores on Saturday August 29th

Our View! We love this little "Studio" condo, It sits right at the end of Napili Bay, next to the Gazebo Hut (one of the best eaterys on the island).

A Spectacular dinner @ "Spago"

Spago restaurant @ The Four Seasons has to be on the top of our list of best dinners of all time!! we watched a perfect sunset over the Molokai horizon and sipped on wonderful red wines..it was about a 3hr dinner, "Spectacular"!!! \This view just sucks, doesn"t it?"

Day #1 The Four Seasons Resort

This is day 1...Our view from Breakfast..Me and Steve * a timer shot

"Duo" this resturant was so good we ate breakfast there both mornings. I indulged in wonderful berries and of course a morning mamosa.. Steve took a picture for a couple that was at the table next to us and it happened to be OJ Mayo, a basketball player for USC and the Memphis Grizzlies...

Maui, Hawaii 2009

August 27th Steve and I took off on a 5:pm flight out of LAX on Delta Airlines, we were headed for the island of Maui. We used our miles and traveled in 1st class.... now this is definitely the best way to go, as many cocktails as you want, and wow what a (better than coach) dinner.. we had brasied short ribs, really delicious.. We arrived on the island of paradise and traveled to "The Four Seasons" resort in Wailea. I got leied as soon as we arrived.... Oh, that's the flowers by the way, by the hotel staff..I think Steve and I would agree this is one of the best resorts we have ever been to.

Happy Anniversary Aug 1976 - 2009

Steve and I go to "Humphrey's on the Bay" at least once a year.. usually around my birthday and our anniversary since they're just a week apart.

This year was special.. we were celebrating our 33rd Wedding Anniversary..

We took off Thursday mid afternoon in the "Aston Martin" (Steve's new toy) and drove (top down) to San Diego. We laid by the pool sipping on cocktails basking in the August sunshine and just chilled before we went and cleaned up for dinner and our concert.

Humphrey's offers great concert packages.. we stay in a very large suite, enjoy a wonderful dinner and get front row seats to the concert.. This is how close we are.. 15ft from Jackson and it is the only way to see a concert!!!

Thank you honey I thoroughly enjoyed myself..

**Jackson Browne** Anniversary Night

View from our room at Humphrey's on the Bay... Shelter Island... San Diego..

Dinner @ Humphrey's just before the "Jackson Browne" concert

We dined on Steak, Fish, grilled veggies and a wonderful bottle of "Elyse" Zinfandel from Napa. And to top it off...fresh berries and cream for dessert. Awesome!!!!

Does anyone see a difference!!!!
