miss her+hawaii bound

so i am sitting on the plane as i write this.

life is oh so good!

boy 1 is sound asleep in his own seat and boy 2 is in husband's arms jabbering away 

as he watches the adjustment bureau.

all movies are complimentary because the flight is stinkin' L.O.N.G.

it is kind of a bittersweet thing.

and it's a really bittersweet thing to see the people in first class eating pineapple!

anyway ... on to this post that i wanted to get done before leaving but didn't have enough time to do ...

my little sis has been in vienna, austria now for 6 days.

(only 7 more weeks to go! but who is counting ... ha! she's not!)

it kind of seems longer than a week but we have already received two emails from her.

so many of the things she says reminds me of my trip to romania a few summers ago.

i am so happy she is having the time of her life.

although i am jealous i am not there with her to take her on the 3 hour sound of music tour!

i can just see her skipping along the beautiful green mountains singing at the top of her lungs ...

"the hills are alive ....."

we will miss her on the island of oahu.

but it is her turn to miss the family vaca.

my older brother missed the cayman islands while serving his mission in cali.

i missed rome, italy while volunteering in a hospital and orphanage in romania.

and now her and cody are missing hawaii ....

my little brother will probably miss sometime in the next 3-4 years.

catch my drift?

we are so looking forward to hearing the sounds of ocean waves and feeling sand between our toes.

i can't wait to see the expression on easton's face when he sees the "oceeeeeen!"

aloha honolulu (almost) .... goodbye utah!

see you all in a week!
