Hawaii or bust…

What are your future travel plans?

Britt’s POV

December in North Dakota is questionable. I’ve been here for 7 years and I’ve experienced what I would call normal winters and I’ve experienced wildlife frozen to the side of the road, can’t be out for more than .01 seconds or you’ll be the same winters. So when we were asked if we wanted to go to Hawaii to celebrate my in-laws anniversary in 2024, I was ecstatic! Who cares if most of our extended family would be coming with us, it’s Hawaii and probably at least 100 degrees warmer than here! Just a small, adorable little issue. Our baby ( who doesn’t like car seats as of now) will be under 2 and I think one flight is 8 hours 😬. Tips on keeping 2 kiddos and a toddler busy will be appreciated! Also coffee☕️.

Aaron’s POV

Although it is quite cold in December, I would argue that January or February are much colder. Having grown up in North Dakota, I am much more accustomed to the indecisive mood swings of Mother Nature in the Dakotas, but I can definitely attest to the wicked cold temps we experience. Yes, that’s me with ice in my beard and mustache after snow blowing the driveway for what felt like ages, and yes I was questioning why people live in the frozen tundra. Just like Britt, I am excited about the opportunity to travel to Hawaii. I have fond memories of being there as a teenager, and I’m looking forward to creating new ones with our family. Being able to share these experiences with them makes the anticipation even greater.

    When traveling with a toddler, find an area where they can run. When in a truck find a rest area with green grass, when in an airport find an area with less people. Bring plenty of small toys and snacks. That’s all I got!

    What an awesome blessing to have family and to be blessed to travel with them! My belief is that God blessed us with the perfect combination of family to show us our imperfections, so we may improve, to help us grow in love and tolerance, and to bring us closer to him. All of our children have been there for us in times of greatest need such as being there when our parents were aging, lost, and dying and being with us during times of illness, grief, death, and times of cancer diagnosis, brain surgery, treatment and so much more. We have been blessed by God’s greatest gift, family! Celebrate the moments with family that you are given. Thank you God for the love of family! Mom

      Family is and always will be a blessing, even in moments of disagreement. God blesses us each in so many ways every day and gives us so much to be grateful for.
