My Little Baby Pua (flower)

Kea had a great time playing in some leis for her Luau. She looked like such a little princess, I couldn't help but take a pic.

Kealani's First Camping Trip. May 16, 2008

Kealani (KAY uh LAW nee- some people have a hard time pronouncing it right)

Kea was so excited for her first camping trip. We went up Mt. Lemmon here in Tucson for the ward campout. The camp was very nice and had cement slabs to put your tent on. The only thing is that our tent was way to big, so we couldn't put up Kea's crib. But she was so hyper as she crawled around on the air mattress with her little birdie in hand. I love the hat, she is already mom and daddy's little cougar!!!
So tired from the exciting day. Especially from the ward talent show, American Idol style. I had a great time being Paula Abdul on the judges panel. And me, Tommy, and mom got to do a number. Mom and I dressed up like haole guys, and Tommy was our hula girl! So hilarious! But for Tom's sake we already put him through enough, so I won't post pics! Yet!

Baby K and Daddy enjoying the beautiful morning in the woods! We are so happy to have another 'happy camper' in the family!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!! May 5, 2008

I had such a great day!! Though I can't believe that I am 29...so old!! Mom and I went out shopping, Tom really wanted me to go to the salon or spa, but I just wanted to hang out with mom and baby K. We met the boys, Dad and Tommy, for lunch at chilis. Later that night we had friends and family over for a bbq and presents. Thanks to all those that pitched in for my ipod, I LOVE it! I just can't get enough of music, so its the perfect present. (Sorry to Tommy who always has to hear me singing so loudly in the shower or around the house! Now he will be happy to hear the ipod blasting music instead!) :)

Happy Anniversary!!!! May 1, 2008

Tom & Jada Crofts
It feels like it has been forever! We have known each other for almost 10 years...and have been married for 4 of them! It has been a great year...especially now that we have Kea in our lives. Mom and Dad gave us the best present ever...peace of mind while we took off for one night and two days at the Westin Resort.

Tom took me to the Westin La Paloma Resort and Spa. They upgraded us to a big beautiful room on the top floor overlooking the golf course out to the mountains. It was such a relaxing time and everyone treated us sooooo well. Once we checked in we took a ride in a large golf cart out to our room. The guy that took us learned it was our anniversary and sent us a treat to the room. Instead of champagne we had Italian water, a card, and some very delicious treats!

We had an amazing, fancy dinner out on the balcony overlooking the pools and waterfall. The view and sound of water created the perfect ambiance. Tom also gave me my present, a beautifully elegant diamond "Journey" necklace. The meaning behind it is, "With every step, love grows".

When they found out it was our anniversary the chef created a special dessert for us. I'm not really the biggest chocolate lover, but this was really mouthwatering chocolate! They even put four candles on top.

Although I really dislike any cactus, the scenery was beautiful. Tommy and I ordered room service and enjoyed having breakfast out on the balcony.

One of my favorite parts is the pools! There are 5 pools, 3 spas, and a waterslide!! So we go from one pool to the next like giddy little kids. One of the pools is salt water so you float really well (this was my pool of choice when I was prego). There is also a a grill connected to the poolside so we got to order a great lunch and not even have to move. So spoiled!!

Playing out in the sun was great. And for the first time in a long time I got to enjoy the waterslides along with Tom!! We had so much fun rushing back up to the top to see which 'riding technique' would get us down the fastest.

There is a beautiful waterfall right next to one of the spas. Props to Tommy for this one, that is the only pool that wasn't heated, it was freezing!!

So, here's to another great year with my man! For those of you who know him I'm sure you will agree, I am truly blessed!!
