We have not fallen off of the face of the earth, just the face pf the mainland! I am feeling really bad that it has been so long since I have blogged and I love seeing what everyone else is doing these days...so I figured since none of my kids were hogging the computer I would hurry and do some updating(if I remember how to do this). I am not even going to start where I left off becaue so much has happened in a year and a half but in a nut shell we moved to Hawaii 10 months ago and LOVE it here but miss our Utah family and friends so much. We spend most of our time at the beach or at the horse stables. There is a church on our small island but there are about 10 kids total in the branch and 5 of them are mine!!!! We love the friends we have made and are so thankful for making us feel at home.
School starts Monday august 1st and Brooklyn will be in middle school and has lots of friends, takes hula lessons, Judo and ceramics! Beretta will be in 2nd grade and of course his teacher loved him last year, did wrestling in the spring and is becoming quite the artist and loves to be on the computer watching movies and playing games. He was baptised in April in the pacific ocean(how many people can say that). We were so happy to have Clyde and Eva(Codys dad and step-mom), my mom and dad and my niece Sydnie here for the special occasion! Brit will be in kindergarten!!! I have mixed emotions on this one:( He goes to work with Cody quite a bit so I think it is going to be harder on Cody than me. Brit makes friends with EVERYONE! We see someone at the beach and he comes and asks me if he can go and play with that kid(any boy between 2 and 20) and I say go and ask them and within minutes he has a new best friend. He LOVES the beach and wants to surf so bad but his boogie board will have to do for a year or two. He did wrestling as well and LOVED it. Brit LOVES life and plays so hard every day and is the first one to sleep every night. Brynlie is 3 and is still our boo boo. She is a total "blonde" and she says her best friend is Brit and Lullie(Lillie) and she tells us every day she wants to move back to ewtah(utah)so she can play with Lillie. She takes Hula lessons as well but falls asleep half of the time and loves to play on Brooklyn and Beretta's itouch or on my phone. Brielle will be 2 in 3 days:( Not quite sure what to think on that as well?!? She is a spitfire and takes no crap from ANYONE!!! She was my best baby but you would never know that now! She is to smart and knows how to get exactly what she wants. She is our energizer bunny! Last night I was up with her until midnight and then she was up at 6:30!!! She was not like this until I took her bottle away! Tonight she is getting rubbed down with Lavander oil. She has the cuttest blonde curls which makes her hair so easy to do. Cody is loving his job and he works a lot!!! I am still the maid, chef, taxi, nanny, hairdresser..... In the year that we have been here Codys mom, dad, step-mom, sister Sharla, niece and nephew(Riley and Kelsie) and my parents, sister Ashlie and 3 of her kids(Allie, Sydnie and Nate), our friends Brad and Elene and their boys, Tyrell and Jessica and their kids, Chad and Tiffany Beus and their kids have all came to see us. Brooklyn also had a friend from Utah and her family come for the day. We LOVE having visitors and hope to see you all soon! Enjoy the pics. They are not in any sort of order!

Cody with Paul Walker(Fast and the Furious) and some of his employees. One of the many celebreties or pro athletes he has had the pleasure of meeting.
Well I did forget to load the pictures and then write what I wanted to say! Oh well! I will remember for next time...maybe! I have tons of pics but blogging takes FOREVER! I think I prefer facebook!
