And Vacation Begins

Officially at 5:30PM today!!!

If you didn't know, the Bonham family is heading to Hawaii. It will be our first time there. We will be on the island of Hawaii in the city of Kona. For ten days we will take in as much of the island as we can.

Since we've been married the only full vacation we've taken that hasn't been to see family, do a mission trip, or take part in a youth trip has been our honeymoon. This trip is no exception. We will be meeting up with my in-laws at Kathi's sisters house in Kona. Don't get me wrong, this isn't a bad thing, we love to see family. I've got great in-laws and look forward to seeing them. We haven't seen Kathi's sister and her husband for a lot of years and look forward to catching up with them since their move to Hawaii. The advantage of this trip over all the other "going to see family" trips is the location. Sorry folks but Hawaii beats out Illinois any day of the week.

Many of our vacations are long weekends camping. Since it isn't a full week I don't count these as full vacations, they are mini vacations. We enjoy these very much and plan to do more of them this year. One of them I will be booking while we are in Hawaii, a trip to the Redwoods with the Villa's (cool peeps). We also have a mega-multi-family camping trip at Detroit Lake to look forward to. There is a possibility of another full vacation in the fall to SoCal. I'd like to take the kiddo's to D-land before it loses its magic.

As modern day cool peeps we'll be bringing the laptop and cameras so we can keep you up to date on our island shenanigans.

More to come...
