Manoa Falls Hike

On conference Sunday, our friends Brint and Brea suggested we hike to Manoa Falls between sessions. We thought it was a great idea to get out of the house, enjoy some nature, wear Zak out, and do a hike we hadn't done before. Little did we know we were about to embark on one wet, rainy, muddy, slippery hike! Zak and Duke loved jumping in the puddles (and the river for Duke). Zak also loved throwing rocks in the river. He wasn't so sure what to think when it really started raining, but we had a great time. I didn't get pictures of us with the Hiatt's...but they were there too. Trust me.

Holy humid! Nate and I posing with the crazy bamboo.
Crazy bamboo...

Such a cute family picture....right?! NOT!!! But it's the only picture that proves we got to the waterfall. So this is us, in all our soaking wet glory! I didn't realize what i looked like or I would've just take a picture of the boys with the waterfall! Fun times!

Making Cookies!

Sunday morning I was craving pumpkin chocolate chip cookies. Lucky for my, I have a son who loves to help me bake....or at least stir and sample. He kept saying it was splashing him so he wanted an apron too...We didn't have one for him, so we were resourceful and just tied one of Nate's old t-shirts around his neck.

I turn my head for one second......

And again.... pumpkin batter grosses me out, i've never tasted it. Zak seems to think it's amazing though!

Bonfire and Movie on the beach

Last Friday was our friend Kellie Hatch's birthday. Her hubby threw her a birthday part with a fire for weiner roasting, other yummy treats, a projector and screen for a movie, and great company. It was a ton of fun!

The fam! I think my mouth may have had food in it...oops

Kellie blowing out her birthday candle!

You can't see the movie in the picture...but don't worry, we could!
