Pokeokeo

That's "turkey" in Hawaiian! Benjamin and I leave for Kauai tomorrow morning for a week long vacation in the tropics. We didn't want to miss out on a home-cooked Thanksgiving family dinner so we celebrated early with Jeff and Sara. We had quite the feast with a roasted turkey and all the trimmings...Benjamin even made a sweet potato casserole with marshmallows on top!



















Speaking of families, Benjamin's parents made a visit a couple weekends ago all the way from Atlanta. They are such nice people! We had a great time showing them around the area, including some places neither Benjamin or I had ever been to - like the Rose Garden and Japanese Friendship Garden where we took lots of pictures. I'm excited for our trip to Georgia next month, I've always heard Atlanta was a fun place!

Looks like a beautiful evening!
I've been talking about going to the Japanese Gardens forever, but have yet to make it. :)

Also! Have fun in Hawaii!

Have fun in Hawaii! I'm jealous. I can't believe we've lived in Cali for 3 yrs and haven't taken advantage of the quick flight over. Oh well... must keep that lesson in mind while in Europe. ; )
