Heston

Well Kaytee sent me this video and I've been trying to convince her to post something about Heston and how smart he is, but she's taking too long! :)

So here is a very adorable video Kaytee took, though it was with her cell phone so that's why it's just a little shaky

Heston is just so smart and learning so fast :)

Jackson and Brody

So I came across these videos of Jackson playing with Brody and I just couldn't help but post a bunch. They are so cute together!

First Comes Love, Then Comes Marriage......

And then comes another puppy!!

Yes that's right, we decided to get another puppy :)

We are getting a Doberman! I know! It's so exciting :) :)

So we start with the picture from July 11th, the day that our new little girl was born

The mother's name is Foxy and the father is Gino. Though there were several of the red dobermans born, we are getting the classic Black and Rust color.

Then here are the puppies at 1 day old

Now we don't know which of the girls will be ours because the breeders are going to be keeping one of the Black and Rust girls. So when they are about 5 weeks old they are getting genetically tested and microchipped and all that jazz.

And here are the pups at 5 days old

We are working with our work schedules to see when to go pick up the puppy. It's going to be either the 5th or the 12th of September. And for the first 6 weeks or so after we get her the pictures will look ridiculous because she will have this headgear on. It is to get the cartilage in her ears to stand up and give her that Doberman look.

Here are the puppies at 6 days old. As you can see, they've already had their tails docked.

The name that we are partial to at the moment is Tayla, anyone else know some good doggie names?

More Honeymoon :)

So here are some more Honeymoon pics.

We went to this amazing Luau! It was called Germaine's Luau and I recommend anyone going to Waikiki should definitely do this!

We start out with this gorgeous view of the lighthouse as we step off the bus.

Now there were like 500 or so people there, but the way we were all seated it didn't really feel that way. It was just so much fun and we had met some fun couples there. As it was time to get ready to watch them pull the 12 pigs out of the pit in the ground, they had the guy blowing the conch, which was way cool

They then had to reach in to throw all these really hot rocks off the pigs in the pit.

Then they pulled the first pig out of the pit. If you look close you can see just how tender it was because the meat is completely off the bones. You can tell by the pig skull just sitting on top of the meat.

Now they couldn't just send 500 people up to eat at once, so they were sending them table by table. While waiting for our table to go, they had some fun entertainment up on stage. Three guys were pulled from the audience and they got to go up on stage and show off their hula skills.

Watch the guy in Purple, it's no surprise that he won :)

There were tons and tons and tons of different dances. They were all from the different Polynesian islands. So here are just a few movies of those dancers.

And then the fire dancer was waaay cool!

So for some more pictures!

We came across this sign and just cracked up!

And the best part was that there was this old lady sitting up on the porch glaring at us as if we were going to step on the 'grass'

And then there were just these gorgeous flowers growing along the sidewalks. Here is a fabulous Bird of Paradise in bloom

Then at night there are just these beautiful sunsets over the water.

One of the most gorgeous parts of the island that we saw was in Hanauma Bay. We got there at like 8 in the morning so that it wouldn't be too crazy busy. We walked about all the way down to the far end of the bay because we knew it wouldn't be as packed because it was more rocky than sandy.

Since we had been there an entire week and not been sunburned, I think that we had gotten a little careless on lathering in sunscreen because we both burned pretty icky :(

This picture of me at the park you can see wear the strap on my swimsuit has moved and see the burn.

And then at the hotel room when I went to put Aloe on Mike you can really see how burned he got! I started to write my name in Aloe, but he wasn't a fan, so only the A and L are on his back :)

That night we went out to a really fancy restaurant for dinner. It was soooooo delicious! And though the seats right on the ocean were all booked, we were still only three tables in, so here is a picture of the view from where we were sitting.

We had the waiter take our picture, and now the burns are really noticeable. At least this didn't happen till the last day of the trip! However, the plane ride back was not comfy at all with such burns :(
