Thank You Stacey

My friend stacey is a mother to 2 beautiful daughters, loves photography and eats gluten free, my kind of friend:)
she was kind enough to take time from those 2 girls to take our christmas pictures, i love them, thank you stacey! (none of them are my christmas card so you'll have to wait until you get that one)
pounders beach, laie' hawaii Dec. 2009



how do you teach a dog to look at the camera:)?

caleb kept yawning right during the pictures we kept yelling at him but cracking up, stacey kept shooting and this is one of our favorite pictures!


Kiley running with baxter
Kiley with stacey's baby kalea, isn't she cute enough to eat?!!

Matt and i don't know if we will live in Hawaii forever but we have been so blessed to have the experience here that we have. looking at pictures like these makes me love hawaii even more. the beauty is amazing and being able to take our christmas pictures on the beach in Dec. is a definite plus.

Great Pics of the family at Pounders. I think the one of you guys looking at Caleb is great! And since you have it on camera, you'll be able to say,"Remember when Caleb kept yawning?" Funny!

Love Pounders beach. We took our first family picture there also. I have some good memories of that beach growing up. Hawaii is sure a beautiful place to live and grow up in. Glad your kids had that opportunity. I can't wait for my brother to move back and raise his family here as well.

Oh, one other tid bit about Pounders. If you notice in the backround of the picture with Kiley and Baxter, there are those stakes sticking up out of the water. They where for when Queen Liliuokalani would come visit and her crew would tie the boat up to those stakes. She was a member of the church. That white house across of Pounders with the really big front yard is where she stayed. . .so I've heard.
