Day 1 - travelled. ALL day. The kids did really well and loved going on an airplane.
Day 2 - Kids were up by 5:00 am. They wanted to "see" Hawaii in the daytime!! We finally let them out of bed at 6:00 am and we went out on the patio (which looks right into the ocean) and we were welcomed to Hawaii by a bunch of Humpback whales jumping out of the water to say good morning!! It was AMAZING!!! We then took a walk to the "point" where some locals were fishing. They were using live octopus as bait and let us touch it. The kids loved how it stuck to their fingers. We were already so hot that we did the natural thing to do in Hawaii - went to the beach. Total blast! Stayed there all morning and had to drag the kids out to go get lunch.
Day 3 - Went to church. Stayed close to the house. Took a drive later in the day and saw a wild boar!!! Ridiculous!!
Day 4 - Very special day for my Rinny. She was baptized in Hawaii! Thank you to all who made it so special!! The spirit was really strong . Especially during her confirmation. Then we went to another beach where Boppa Ted and Auntie Rachel taught the kids how to boogie board. So. Much. Fun. Even Nate and I had so much fun "riding the waves".I am amazed at how much SAND gets into every crevase one has. HOLY!!!
We are very lucky to be here in Hawaii with our family. We are making unforgetable memories.
More later!!!

I am like the kids. I love to go to the beach! I could go to the beach every day and mostly do and not get tired of it! Sand, Salt Water, Swimming, Snorkeling, I love it all. When I had to leave to come home I did'nt wash the salt water out of my hair because I wanted the smell to stay as long as I could. I also had a BLAST Playing with the kids only wished I could have stayed longer to play longer. Love Grandpa Ted
