Berries, Berries and more Berries
The girls and I woke up early one morning to pick strawberries, they had a blast and I couldn't get them to stop picking! Then we brought the berries home and the real fun began. They were a great help as they learned how to make freezer jam for the first time. By the time we were done, Jamie could complete the whole process by herself! We froze about 3 cookie sheets of berries and made 6 batches of jam. It is scrumptious and we have been enjoying it ever since!

Hawaii in Pictures
In June, we had an amazing vacation of a life time! Thanks to Grampa and Grammy, we were able to travel with 23 of our favorite people to the amazing islands of Hawaii!
We spent a week in Oahu with the entire Preator family. We stayed at the amazing Turtle Bay Resort and had a fun filled week exploring Oahu. We loved the sun, beaches and playing with you cousins. The kids declared their very favorite day to be the day we spent touring BYU Hawaii and the Polynesian Cultural Center. We were treated as VIPs and were so excited to learn about these amazing places that Grampa has worked with so closely for many years. Brent and I loved the chance we had to go back to Oahu with our 3 children, it had been 16 years since we honeymooned there!
From there, we traveled to Maui and spent 3 fun days exploring a new island. We loved the beaches and the kids were much more successful at snorkeling in the deeper waters. We braved the road to Hana and made it halfway. We also loved the touristy excitement of Lahaina and enjoyed our stay there.
The next 11 posts are the picture recap of each day we spent in Hawaii! We loved every minute of our trip and hope to go back someday!
