Hawaii...Day 8, 9, 10. The End!

So much relaxing and lounging...thought I'd document some of it.

Guess who told us they were pregnant while there?? Kurt and Kara...YAY! They actually had a pool server come over to us on the 2nd day in Hawaii, lounging at the pool. We hadn't ordered anything, so I was surprised when she handed Alaina and I a drink, and a baby bottle full of peanut m&m's. It took me a minute to realize what had happened...and then Alaina and I just started screaming and jumping up and down (what a site in our swimsuits). I'm so excited for them...so happy, can't wait til August!!

Made a heart in the sand for grandma & grandpa...missed them!

Our last day at the beach...

Lunch at Kahole's one last time!

Last jumps into the pool...

A few more slides down the slide...

I love this picture!! I wanted a 'family picture', so I had Caiser put the camera on a table and set the timer. I couldn't stop laughing at him trying to jump into the pool, not splash the camera, and make it over to us in time. This was as good as it got...I love it!

Until someone walked by and offered to take a pic for us!

Ended the trip where we started it...dinner at Chili's.

While walking through the Hawaii airport, the kids saw this...Japan Airlines. They wanted to take a picture with sad faces (I guess to show grandma and grandpa they miss them.)

A quick 5 hour flight later...and back to the snow, the haze, the cold, the blah!

What a wonderful trip...

Hawaii Day 6 & 7

Day 6 included more golf for the boys (finally...golf pictures, they never take a camera)!

And more 'ray baggin', sno-cones, beach, pool, pure delight for the rest of us.

My wonderful 'gentleman' of a son...he held these doors open for us everyday...coming in, going out, he would run ahead of us, and hold them open. Maybe one day I'll explain to him that they were 'automatic'!

BBQ'd for dinner...and decided to eat outside.

Day 7...more bliss!

This is what I did the entire trip...READ! I love to read...and can I suggest 'The Hunger Games & Catching Fire'...couldn't put them down. So good!

I also love that my kids still 'like' each other on occasion. They will still play together...hope this lasts forever!

LOVE this picture...he was so cold, his lips turned blue. Off to the hot tub!

Tried to go mini-golfing...closed (mosquito season).

Hit Outback for dinner instead.

Our families favorite thing to do...try and jump in each other's pictures! Would have been a really cute mother/son picture...

Presto was my 'BFF' this trip. Love that kid!

And then off to the movies...


These pictures were before we saw the movie 'Alvin & the Chipmunks: The Squeaquel'. Had we taken 'after pictures'...you would have seen all of us adults pulling our hair out!

I love movies, I love going to movies with the kids...however, I was ready for Caiser to hit me...hard, and knock me out after it started. The 6 adults had the hardest time sitting through this movie...it was pure misery! Kids loved it though...that's all that matters.

The girls...

The handsome boys...
