Aaron had a great year at work in 2007 and earned a trip to Hawaii!!!! We enjoyed 5 kid-free days in Maui at the Grand Wailea April 9-13. It was an amazing trip with his company sparing no expense to keep us entertained. The bummer was the cool, overcast weather for the first three days and my bout with food poisoning. However, it was good to get away and definitely rejuvenated us to return to life with a toddler and an infant. Being away makes you really appreciate what you have! Nana Patty and Tom took care of Avalon the entire time and cared for Waylon the first two days. Grandma & Grandpa Davis had Waylon the remainder of the time. As you may have guessed from my blog updates, Waylon can be quite a hand full. We thought it was best to spread out his "unique personality" among the grandparents. We cannot thank them enough for caring for out little buggers.
The only time I pulled out the camera was for the whale watching trip. You can see the tail of a whale diving under the water in the distance. You can also see what not-so-warm weather we had.
Aaron pretending to relax. Since the trip included about 50 of his co-workers, Aaron never seemed to let his hair down. About an hour before we left Maui to come home I think he finally relaxed for a moment. That may have had something to do with several drinks at the Maui airport.
This is not a flattering photo, but its the only one I got with my camera. Again, not the warmest weather.
Here is the view from our hotel room...GORGEOUS! The sun finally came out the day before we left, and we enjoyed some time relaxing by the pool, drinking, and watching the waves crash.
Aaron and his friend, Rommel, look chummy at the luau after several mai tais. We had a great time with Rommel and his wife, May. The craziest part was realizing that Rommel and I grew up just a few houses away from each other on the same street. This is crazy enough, but is extra-crazy because where we grew up most people are still sporting mullets and driving mini-trucks.
May and I enjoy the luau festivities, although I think this is where I got the food poisoning.

Back at home, Nana had her hands full with Waylon and Avalon. According to my mom's blog, Waylon got his sleeve wet and remedied the problem as seen above. He also thought Avalon should wear his froggy boots, which are also known as his fireman boots.
Waylon jams on his new guitar that mommy and daddy brought him from Hawaii.
