Hawaii

Hawaii was SO much fun. I am so happy that the kids were there with us. It made me see things in a dramatically different way.
Here are a few of the things we did.

Of course we Played a lot on the beach. Here we were all out searching for Hermit crabs. Which we found lots of. 

 Tay and Addi were having so much fun, I think we were out there for a few hours. We found Fish, Crabs, Hermit crabs, Coral and Shells. Here they are trying to catch a fish with the sand castle maker. Great imaginations.

 We all loved the beach. We were there a few times a day. The first time the kids went down to the water the laughter and the look on there faces was worth every penny to get them there.  I loved watching them it made me so happy.

 As you know, You cant go to the beach without making a sand castle.

 We took a boat tour of the Na pali  Coast. We got to see Sea turtles, Fish, Dolphins, and of course the BEAUTIFUL coast line. We were even able to go snorkeling. What an amazing experience. 

 

   The water off the boat was so clear. There were spots you could see the bottom at. 

 This was by far my favorite time in Hawaii. We called it Retreat Beach. Why you ask?
The waves were huge and they came up this steep sand hill and ran up the flat part. We would have to run from the waves or get soaked!! I felt like a little kid again at this beach.

  Here is Taylon Running from one of the waves. The  kids thought this was the best.

Here at the Botanical Gardens. We were searching for Great flowers while the Pirates 4 was being made.

 This was our favorite dessert... Hula Pie. Macadamia nut ice cream,Hot fudge, Chocolate sauce, Whipped Cream and Chopped Macadamia nuts= YUMMY!!
There are tons more exciting Pictures and stories but Im sure we dont have all day.
