Maui

Our trip to Maui was good. The weather was great, 85 Degrees all week, some days were more humid than others. We let Aden play with the sand a little, but all he wanted to do was eat it, so that was the end of that. We did finally take him into the ocean, once we found a beach where the waves weren't big, or didn't creep up on us and get big. He had fun, and even got a little tan!! Everywhere we went, we had to drive! So that was hard, making sure we had everything for him for the day and all that. And try explaining to a 12 month old that the drive is just a few minutes of so. :( But we had fun shopping, playing in the ocean, snorkling, and just sitting around chit chatting about random things. Tony and I did decide that this will be the last vacation for awhile, because it's to hard to travel with an infant and making sure we have everything for him. Our vacations will now be at the Oregon Coast!! LOL
Last week I got a call that my grandma wasn't doing very well. And she couldn't do dialysis anymore because she had gotten blisters on her feet. Then her blood pressure dropped! And Grandpa took her into see the cancer doctor, and he said well I give her a week possible two to live. And that was Friday. My dad left first things Saturday morning to fly out and see her for a week. And she passed away Sunday morning. (we got the call as we were walking out the door for Maui). So it was hard for me. Since I had just seen her weeks ago and she seemed to be doing well. I guess after we left, she wouldn't eat or drink anything. And she was in alot of pain. But I will remember her for what she was, she loved to can veggies and pickles (no one can make a pickle like grandma!!) and photography, bowling, and a passion for collecting anything green! It's still hard, since we couldn't make it for the services. (And I promised myself I would always be at hers, since she was my favorite). So now I'm just trying to recoupe from vacation and a loss. And Aden's all ready for Halloween. He's going to be Yoda! (Surprise). I will try and post some pics when I have some time.
