sorry about the picture dump..
i know i already said this, but this place is unreal.
i can truly say its a tropical paradise and not be exaggerating in the slightest.
i feel so blessed (ope, testimony) to be able to come here again.
the last time me and brad came i remember feeling an ache knowing we would probably never be able to come to this heaven on earth again.
utah has never looked so dreary looking out the window when the plane was landing.
i can't say thanks enough to my parents.
i know they scrimped and saved for this trip to be able to get us all there.
and i'm so grateful (testimony part 2)
it was honestly the best time with my family.
i love them even more after this trip.
i don't know a more fun group of people all under one roof.
best conversation of the trip: gentle josh had to sit next to an older man on one of the plane rides.
the man asked josh, "so are you here for a family reunion?" (there was 12 of us all sitting by each other).
gentle josh answered by saying, "no, these are all my brothers and sisters".
the man asked, "oh wow, are you from utah?"
gentle josh said, "yes.."
the man asked, "how many moms do you have with all these kids?"
josh didn't know what he was asking and said, "i have one mom, and the rest are my brothers and sisters"
the man, "so wait, you only have one mom and the rest of these kids came from that one mom?"
josh," ya........i think so....."
we were all dying.
second best thing: a couple on the flight with us actually asked for my mom and dads number so they could hang out with all of us. they specifically wanted to come to one of our dances. they called us 3 times while we were there. awesome awesome.

Looks like you had fun - our company is located in Logan and we market vacation rentals on Kauai. I always get info on postings about Kauai so I saw yours come up.
