Pineapple Park, Butterfly Garden & Pizza in the Sky

We decided to get out of the house after having a few days of rain and drove north to Nago to Pineapple Park. We didn't really know what to expect, but we wanted to see it. It was recommended by lots of people here. When we got there we took a golf cart tour around the park. It was an automatic ride, so Paige got to "drive" us around! After the tour we walked through the pineapple winery where they had LOTS of tasting. We tasted wines, juices, chocolates, cookies and cakes that were all made with pineapple.

Next, we went to the Ryugujo Buttery Garden. Since the recent typhoon that hit, alot of the vegetation had been ruined, so it wasn't as beautiful as the pictures we had seen. We will definately make a trip back when it recovers.















After walking around all day, we were hungry and since we were in Nago, we decided to try a highly recommended restaraunt called Pizza in the Sky! It was on top of a hill overlooking the ocean and the clouds were low that day so it really felt like we were in the sky. The pizza was wonderful! I would have taken a picture of the food, but we were so hungry it went fast! :)














My iced tea...they are all about presentation here!


It was a great weekend to get out and enjoy some new sites. We have begun to pace ourselves so we don't get burned out too soon on seeing the sites! Once the baby comes, it will be so nice to get out not get so tired so quick. :)

Well, it's 2009! Where has the time gone? We are looking forward to a great year!
Paige, 17 months now, is the joy of our lives! She is so much fun and everyday makes us smile and laugh. She is growing up so much and talking more and more! It's getting colder now, so we have to play inside alot. Her sandbox sits empty for the winter. Soon enough, it will be spring and we will be out and about! We are planning on planting a garden - she will love being in the dirt. It will be a great outdoor activity!
Jason is still traveling back and forth to Phoenix, which is a long drive for him, but he and I are so thankful that he has a good job! He is currently involved in our church's Men's Fraternity and is the director of our AWANA's TREK (junior high) group (as am I). We are also involved in a young families group as well.
I am still staying at home and enjoying the precious time I have with Paige. I also babysit my friend's little boy as well. They are great friends already! :)
We are planning for more children, and are sure it will happen in God's time! We are so thankful for all of His provisions in our lives! HAPPY 2009!
