I Think Chloe Is Excited To Go

 One of the absolute joys of my life is the interactions I have with my grandkids.  A quick message or a smile from one of them and my whole day is a good one.


Chloe texts me regularly and the last few days you can feel her excitement as the big day nears.

And, although Sonja and I have been to Hawaii many times in the past, this trip is different.  This one feels special.  










Reminds Us Of 1993...

... when we took our kids and their cousin Ashley to Hawaii.


Of course, this was one of those trips on Oahu where we spent most of our time sitting around kitchen tables with Sonja's family.  Not saying that in a bad way.  It was wonderful.  Just not what you'd find in the Hawaii brochures at the travel agency.




And I think they were just as excited to see us.


2017

This will not be Chloe and Abby's first trip to Hawaii.  That was in December, 2017.  Chloe was 6 years old and Abby not old enough to remember much about that trip.




And as I look back through these photos I'm beginning to sense how much fun this 2024 trip will be.  Especially with a 5-year old.



































And, of course, they spent their fair share of time sitting around a kitchen table.



OK, I guess we need to admit it.  Sonja and I are pretty darn excited too!
