Haven 6th Birthday Nov. 28th

Haven celebrated his birthday with his family and friend Aaron.

Haven spent the day at a nearby waterpark with his family and friend Aaron. They played in the sun and enjoyed eating and wearing the cotton candy they had for a snack.

Holden Tries His Hand at Gardening

Wow this Gerber Daisy is pretty, I wonder if KoolAid will help this flower grow.


Man I love this stuff!
What? KoolAid is too good to put on a plant!

The Super Heros Have Arrived

The Hayes household never feels afraid because they know they have three mighty Super Heros guarding their house.

The littlest one gets his supernatural power from a healthy intake of Goldfish.

Recharged with Goldfish he takes to flight.

Christmas Comes Early

Christmas for us comes in cardboard boxes from family and friends through Fed Ex. The kids were excited to recieve this package from their Aunt and Uncle. A gift sent to Holden for his 1st birthday!


Hannah loves American Girl dolls and movies.

Haven has a new joy about him after recieving a new Clifford dog. We had lost his other Clifford dog during our travels.

The fight over the Cheez-it has already begun.

Thanks Bryan and Lorrie!!! The kids enjoyed their gifts.

Fishing in the Ocean

We arrived at the fishing village early in the morning and waited for the tide to come in. The hardest part of the trip was just getting into the boat.

I enjoyed the boat ride out into the Indian Ocean.

When we arrived at our place to fish we tied our boat to some bamboo poles the villagers had placed there a few months earlier.

I enjoyed catching a few fish and spending time with my Malay friends.


After a full day at sea I enjoyed viewing the scenery as I drove back to my house.

Hannah Loves Holden

Hannah loves her baby brother Holden. Nothing like some eggs and rice.

Sabah, Malaysia

We spent the day at the beach and let Holden get use to hanging out in the sand.
The Mountain that is towering over the city is Mt. Kinabalau where many people love to go hiking. The summit is over 4,000 meters above sea level.
