Maui wowee

Our tropical paradise vacation was some kind of perfect.

Back in 2005 we took the kids #snorkeling in #australia. Lauren was too chicken to go in. Today she LOVED it. But we had to tell her that the Great Barrier Reef was a thousand times better than the reef in #maui #hawaii
#papaya at #twinfalls on #roadtohana. It looks like this is a hermaphrodite tree, but really the male tree (with the long flower spikes) is behind the female (fruit-bearing) one

2011 is ending SO much better than it started. What a crazy year it's been. Two months ago we were merely days away from a finalized divorce. Now we are giddy in love again, and re-committed to our marriage.

And I have to tell you that Mookie is not the only poet in the family. I awoke early the other morning as Josh was getting out of bed in the dark. "Shush," he commanded. "Don't talk." So I slept for another hour or so, and was then greeted with this poem he had been composing earlier.



Is that romantic ... or what??
