Our trip to the Big Island- March 12-19

Juan and I went to the Big Island for a week in March without the girls. We stayed at the Hilton at Waikaloa which was beautiful! We went on a whale watching excursion, spent lots of time at the beach, went to the Volcano, Hiked to some amazing waterfalls, caught lizards and searched for Sea Turtles. It was soooo much fun! It was hard to be away from the girls for so long, but also really nice to have the break and spend time together. It has been way too long since we have had a vacation together. Here are some pictures of one my favorite vacations so far:

This picture was taken right outside of our hotel.

About Our Family

Here's a little about us:Juan was raised in Colorado Springs, CO and I was born in Ft. Hood, Texas, but raised military, so we lived in several different states. Juan and I met in 1993 when my family moved to Colorado Springs. We were married in Salt Lake City on June 24, 2000. We have been married nearly 8 years, and for 7 of those years, we have lived in Salt Lake. We have two daughters-- Amara and Sienna. Amara joined our family on March 16, 2006. She just turned two. Sienna was born on March 31, 2008, and is almost a month old.Some of Juan's favorite things are: Taking the girls to the park, Running Cross Country, Playing Basketball, Video Games, Listening to Music, and collecting Transformers.Some of Susan's favorite things are: Spending time with family and friends, laughing, watching sports, playing sports- especially basketball, playing board games and yard games, and spending time outdoors.Amara and Sienna have a few favorites too. Amara LOVES the song "Umbrella" by Rihanna (which is why it is on this blog), watching Blues Clues, Dancing, blowing bubbles, singing, and chasing balls around the house. Sienna likes to be held. She is really good at taking a bottle (which I LOVE), and seems pretty mellow so far.Juan and I love being parents. It has been an adjustment, but is so much fun and we are learning tons from Amara and Sienna. Our blog will mostly have pictures and quotes from them- since they pretty much rule our lives.
