Blaine and Carrin

Blaine and I were married on Aug. 10, 1982 in the Los Angeles Temple. We have 7 children. I gave birth to 4 and then we adopted a sibling group of 3. We love all of our children so much!! We now have 6 grandchildren. I love the ocean and Catalina is one of my favorites places. Blaine loves the mountains and fishing and hunting, he also loves Catalina. I have traveled across the US on the southern route. We went to college in Rexburg, Idaho when we first got married.

Hawaii






I had an absolute wonderful time in Hawaii! The weather was perfect and fresh air to breath. We went snorkeling and swimming in a beautiful beach that had a spectacular drive through tunnels and mountains, with everything so green. Wish we had more time to spend a whole day on the beach but we had so much to do. We went and saw the Temple, it was beautiful, we went through the visitor's center, the Temple was closed for remodeling, and drove the North Shore and the Dole Plantation through the center of Oahu. We went shopping all over, everything in downtown malls and outdoor market places were close enough to walk from our beautiful Hotel. We got to eat at the Hard Rock Cafe and Bubba Gump's. We went to Pearl Harbor, the Arizona Memorial and a famous submarine. We went to a Japanese Temple and Garden, that so beautiful. We went to a Luau on the farthest West Point of the Island, the food was very good. I chickened out of trying poi, lol. Here are a few pics! Thanks again Devonn and Carla and Carla's parents! I heard the boys got to go to Disneyland, poor boys, lol.
