on our first full day in hawaii, we had quite the evening, and i have some big news to share!! if i didn't say this before, we are on vacation with our second family, the sorrentinos. the parents all went to pharmacy school together...and have both been married for 30 years. the dads surprised the moms with a wedding vow renewal ceremony at sunset on the beach. it was beautiful! we were told that we were going to take a family picture, so we went to the best flea market ever and got matching dresses! when we went to meet the "photographer", there was a minister there and the parents renewed their vows. it was really cute. what great marriage role models both couples have been.
THEN...after the minister was done with the renewal ceremony, papou asked if anyone had anything to add to the ceremony. and would you believe barrett stepped up and, in front of a beautiful sunset and all of us, ASKED STEPH TO MARRY HIM!!! it was so romantic and great! aunt steph's ring is beautiful! uncle toby took some pics and i will try to transfer them and post them later today. chris got everything on video too! we are so thrilled for barrett and steph and wish them the very best!
for a thalia update, she spent a bunch of time in the pool with her daddy yesterday. she had the cutest hawaiian surf shirt on. we got her a cute matching dress for the renewal ceremony too. she is just hamming it up out here. we are having a lot of fun. (but we do miss you (o: )
much love and a bit more sleep (thalia has adjusted to the time change amazingly well)
