ALOHA!

These are kinda backward but this is in the Honolulu airport on the way home:)





My attempt at family pictures!



He was so tired he fell asleep trying to escape our hotel room:)



Down the water slide!

Matthew can get her to giggle like no other!



The "dark slide" Matthew LOVED it!





"where's the beach?"


She may have not liked the humidity...but her hair was ALL curls!

They had penguins and turtles at our hotel.







The only time I could get her in the pool.


And coy fish







Well we just got back from Hawaii and it was truly an amazing trip! We spend the days swimming and hanging out on the beach. The only member of the family that wasn't too keen on the sun and humidity was Maggie. We basically took turns spending time in the room with her. She hated the bright sun and sticky humidity. It's ok though because she shouldn't be out in the sun anyway with her skin. Chris spent the first few days in meetings which is the whole reason we were there in the first place and then the last few days lounging with us. My parents came to help out which was awesome. I wouldn't have been able to do it without them. I swear I gained 5 lbs eating and drinking beer but it was worth it and we had some great family time. There were 4 pools and at one of them there were water slides that Matthew loved. We successfully wore him out which was awesome. We all slept well and relaxed as a family. I am happy to have the comforts of my own home but it was all in all a great time! It might take me a few posts to post all of the pictures that I want so bear with me!
