Making Memories with Aunty Coco

 While we were sitting on Waikiki beach, the girls sent these photos to us. WHAT? LOL  ICE FISHING with toddlers is quite an under-taking.  Looking closely, I noted Aunty Co-co in the back!!!

Krista's job just now involves lots of time away from home and Alaska. She routinely flies to Hawaii, Guam and I've even heard tales of a trip to Japan in the works....and she has a unit she is responsible for in Australia as well.  I've watched her very intentionally investing in family relationships and friendships whenever possible. 

She borrowed Josiah's ice-fishing gear and invited CoRielle to join her to make some family memories with Aunty. What a great idea! 

Honestly, as Arielle said, "...ice fishing with two toddlers isn't for the faint of heart." BUT they made it work and had a grand adventure.  And in the end THIS face says it all! 

Cars and trucks on the ICE...a tent on the ICE...drilling a hole in the ICE... Danny was not sure at all about this idea. This boy is going to LOVE the warm days in Hawaii that I see in his future. 

Such a good daddy! What a blessing he is. 

In the end, even Danny was happy for the adventure! Way to go guys!
