Hawaii!!!

So, we were lucky enough to meet 2 great people from Hawaii. My great friend Tom - who now lives in Hawaii - got married 1.5 years ago. The wedding was back in MN, and tons of people traveled up here for their wedding. We offered our house for people to stay, and Tom and his soon to be wife Penny asked if their good friends, Carlos and Erin could stay with us when they arrived. Of course we said yes! We met them when we visited Tom and Penny in February of 2007.
We immediately clicked with Erin and "Los". We stayed in touch after Tom's wedding and before we knew it, we got an invitation to their wedding - in Hawaii! At the time, we just found out Christy was pregnant, and were unsure if we were going to go. It sorta depended on how well we thought we were doing as new parents, how 'well behaved' our new kid would be, and of course, cost.
So, we soon found out that Easton was a very well behaved baby, and traveled well......then, a huge fare sale to Hawaii showed up on my computer one day while Chirsty was on maternity leave - so we booked it!
Easton did very well on his adventure to Hawaii - the only tough part was that E decided he was going to begin teething as soon as we sat down and the plane for the trip back to MN! Here are some pics of the event. There is also a link to a video to the right of Easton at the ocean.



Easton likes to dress up for special events. He passed out soon after the dinner at Los and Erin's wedding:

We visited the Dole Pineapple Plantation on our last day.
