Maui! Day 3

Day 3 in Maui was definitely one of my favorite days! 

We started the day off with snorkeling! 

SO.

MUCH.

FUN!!!!

We rode a boat for miles and miles until we came to a reef

where they let us take off and roam the ocean with

our snorkeling gear. 

The Edge crew! 

There were so many fish in the water.

It was unbelievable.

I loved being in the water looking at all the fish. 

We took another boat ride to Turtle Bay

where we got to snorkel with sea turtles! 

Snorkeling was such a fun adventure and 

I'm so grateful I got to experience it! 

When we got back we took a walk along the beach to Whalers Village

where they have little shops and restaurants. 

We bought Trayco a pair of Oakleys 

and long sleeve swim shirts because his 

poor skin couldn't take any more sun. 

The sixth of November marked one

year since our first date! 

I can't believe that it has been an entire year

since we met. So much has happened because of 

that blind date and I am thankful for it everyday! 

We celebrated by getting frozen yogurt!

The sunsets in Maui were amazing

 every single night! 

The pictures don't do them justice 

I loved walking along the beach

every night watching the sun go down.

We rode the shuttle into town and went shopping 

at the outlets. They had an awesome

Adidas outlet! We ate at a cute pizza shop.

Maui! Day 2

                                           

We stayed at the Hyatt Resort & Spa

and it was breath taking! 

It was right along the shore and it was

so beautiful and warm.

Our room had an ocean view and it was so

relaxing to open the screen door at night and

fall asleep to the ocean. 

                                         

The resort had flamingos, 

penguins (in Maui of all places),

fish ponds, and parrots that said "Aloha!"

                                     

 

We hung out at the beach for most of the day.

We forgot to bring sunscreen

which was a bad idea!

Trayco's skin was lobster red for the rest of the trip

They had AMAZING AMAZING

shaved ice in Maui.

So smooth and creamy that it 

almost tasted like ice cream!

For dinner we went to a Luau with all

the Edge employees that were on the trip.

They had dinner and a program and it was 

really entertaining.

The program was about the history of Maui 

and included all of their native dances. 

My favorite was the flame throwers. 

                                               

Maui! Day 1

Day 1: 

Trayco sold over 200 accounts this summer 

so he won a free trip to Maui! 

We had a layover in L.A. and 

then a 5 hour flight to Maui.

I usually travel pretty well but I 

had motion sickness like no other

on the flight to L.A.

Luckily there were free movies to

watch on the 5 on the flight to Maui

which made the flight much more enjoyable! 

It was late by the time we got to our hotel

so we ordered pizza and then headed down to the 

beach because Trayco could hardly contain himself.

It was his first time seeing the ocean! 

Cabin Weekend

Adam and Kammi invited us to their cabin

 down in Boulder for the weekend!

We had such a great time! 

We stayed up way too late playing games every night

On Saturday we ventured out to go fishing.

Usually we can drive to the lake but

there was so much snow that the cars got 

stuck and we ended up 

hiking up the mountain.

On Sunday we attended the Boulder ward and 

we literally more than doubled the 

size of their ward! 

After church we took a drive down the

"devils backbone"

There were 16 people and two babies staying in 

a two room cabin but we had a great time! 

Sister Ross has been called to serve in the

Massachusetts Boston Mission

and enters the MTC on 

December 2! 

6 Months

Happy Six Months to us. 

It feels like we've been married for 

six years yet it feels like I met you yesterday. 

I love you Trayco Ross!

One of the those weekends that need to happen more often

The weekend started with a long

awaited Hogwarts Party! 

Snitch cake made by yours truly 

I love Kai's intense Harry Potter

 face in this one 

The whole crew! 

The next day Amy was nice enough

to take us all to Lagoon

 as well as purchase Old Fashion pictures! 

I haven't been to Lagoon since

 9th grade 

and it was Trayco's first time.

I have always wanted to 

get old fashion pictures and it was SO much fun!

We got poured on all day but still

had a great time.

I talked everyone into riding The Cannibal

and then I screamed like a baby the entire ride.

Kai was a champ and was 

the bravest one 

Check out that drop off! 

Riding the Train!

Thanks for the great weekend Amy!

It was a highlight of the year
