Finnish Treats

I had a great time at Ladies Night tonight.  

We had cooking lessons and demonstrations with lots of tasting.  

And my friend, B, made her delicious Finnish treats.  

I fell in love with these a few months ago at another activity night and I have been craving them ever since.  The best part - they are completely corn free and, therefore, very Me friendly.

 
She showed us how to make them and sent us home with detailed recipes.  My life is complete.  In the Finnish treat way.  Yummy!

Goodbye

Baby sat like this on the entire shuttle ride to the airport.



At the airport, we hung out in the club lounge so the kids could play.


Husband actually relaxed enough on vacation to fall into a good book.


And, because the plane was not totally full, Baby got his own seat on the way home.  Hallelujah!  


Didn't stop him from bothering his neighbors though.  Thank goodness they are pretty enamored with him.  


Aloha and Mahalo!

Breakfast

Everyone slept like a long and was ready for a hearty breakfast.


What do you mean they have to cook my bacon before they bring it to me?  I want to eat it now!


The other boys were a little more patient.


And then the food came.  Oh, happy day!  I love fruit platters!


And, never fear, this kid finally got his bacon. 


Dinner

During dinner, we had one kid fall asleep before dinner. 


And we had another fall asleep while eating shortly after this picture was taken.  Apparently Mom and Dad set a bruising pace for these boys.


In the meantime, Lexi Pineapple was on his best behavior.  


Beach Adventure...Again

In the afternoon, we headed back to the beach for more frolicking, tubing, and snorkeling. 






This baby loved the sand.  




I love this shot.


And this one.  


Ok.  And this one too.  This kid is seriously adorable. 


Four did some more snorkeling.  He is so smart.  He picked it right up and took off with it.  Such a cutie. 






All my boys in one shot.  





The boys tried to teach Baby how to build.  But he just wanted to destroy.  


So they would build little hills for him to come and knock down.
