Maui: Home Away From Home

Our trip to Maui has come and gone. It's hard to remember that Elijah's last trip to Maui was in Christine's womb, but it's true. Last year was great and this year was FAT ("For All Time"). The "Sexy 6" is now the "Magnificent 7" with Eli as the newest member of our Maui crew. Our days were filled with fun-filled activities like surfing, golf, swimming, and snorkeling, but also vegging at the Westin spa and poolside. And of course, we ate like kings and queens. Man oh man is the fish delicious. Gotta give props to the Plantation House, Sansei and the Napili Sea House in particular. The trip could not have ended more appropriately -- with Penny, Micah, Eli and Jere dancing beachside to IZ's "Somewhere Over the Rainbow". Also a special thanks to Dr. and Mrs. Shooter whose incredible generosity made this gnarlsome vacation possible.
