Derek is FOUR!!!

So here is a look back, to the day he was born....

Less than an hour old!

The day he turned ONE,

Our TWO year old Derek, so Sweet!

Discovered the joy of presents at TWO!

Skateboarding at THREE!

and a BIG bike for birthday THREE.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEREK!

P.S. I was wanting to post pictures from today of Derek at FOUR but for some reason can't get the memory card to download, and camera batteries are dead, so will try again tomorrow.

Hawaii -Waimea Canyon

I know this is totally out of order but just realized lately that I have lots more Hawaii pictures I would like to post. So here are some happy smiling faces that have just viewed the VERY beautiful, colorful canyon. Kinda scary at the edges though with two wiggly little ones :s

Looking down it toward the ocean (nearest shore)

There were several waterfalls, this one was the nearest we saw

As we got higher up, it got cloudy and harder to get the whole scope of it, be we loved all that we saw :)

After we went to a small costal town to see the "swinging" bridge, and it sure did swing! This was so cute, quite on his own, Derek said "Caleb, do you want to hold my hand?" He did, and off they went, adults are just too slow when there are places to explore!!

All work and play

I hoe, I hoe, it's off to work I go.... :) :)

A much less work inclined little lad looking mildly angelic?! ;p

Who needs a horse and plow when you have a busy boy like Caleb!

Someone is doing all the work and someone is having all the fun!

See Mom, when you water the grass, it GROWS! :D
