    Hey Everyone!! Tom is finally done with the business portion of his trip and now we move on to the vacation! Yesterday, while he was in his meetings I took the audio tour of the Queen Mary. The tour was pretty interesting and I got a lot of exercise walking…

    Hi everyone, believe it or not I am blogging to you right now at 35,000 feet using AirTran’s wi-fi.  Normally its $10 for access but since this is our first time using it, it’s FREE!  Just like a drug dealer, they’re giving me my first hit for free so next…

    Sorry to disappoint our blog readers, but I'm back behind the helm. Tom did such a good job filling in for me with a very entertaining post. Now it's back to boring old me. So a few things have happened since the last posting. First we have flown back from…

    Yet another unbelievable exciting day!!! Today's adventure took us on a boat tour around the Island of Lanai. We saw numerous whales and dolphins. Tom took some excellent photos with his new camera (well about 500 so we'll see if we can narrow those down to about 100). We stopped…

    Today we got in the car and saw the Island of Maui. The Road to Hana is 35 miles of very curvy and narrow road. It is also a very scenic ride. Once we made it to Hana we decided to keep going and check out the other side of…

    We had an awesome day today. Bright and early this morning we got picked up at 3:15 to make about an hour and a half trip up 10,000 feet to Haleakala Crater. Here we had a spectacular view of the full moon and an even more amazing view of the…

    Today's adventures began before the sun came up. We had to get our butts to the airport to catch a 6:18 flight to Maui. The flight itself was only about 20 minutes long, and by 7:00a.m. we were heading to the rental car place. I was a little nervous about…

    We were able to get on the flight to Hawaii!! After a long 9 hour flight and one good book later we finally made it.  Thanks Jen for giving me "No Time For Goodbyes".  It made the flight go by a little quicker.  I read the whole thing on the…

    We had a very good weekend in Iowa celebrating Sean's 5th birthday. After celebrating his birthday on Saturday with his friends, the weather was perfect for sledding. Since my sister lives on a hill this works out quite nice. Saturday evening we had fun playing carnival games at the local…

    Well, as you can probably tell from the lack of blog postings, not a lot of exciting things have been happening in 2009. You probably also assumed that without a blog posting on January 1st, that we probably didn't win at Bingo. Your assumptions would be correct. Although we had…

    We had a great Christmas, and even though it was quite hectic, it was fun to spend it with so many members of our family. Once the craziness of the holidays settled down, my mom, Tom, and I had a good time taking Sean and Beth to the Medieval Times…
