Hawaii

Thank you sooooo much Nana & Papa for taking us to Hawaii. Nana, Papa, Jacob, Travis, Becky, Zayne, Mason, Great-Grandpa, Great-Grandma, Gavin, Kenney and I all went to Hawaii. Becky's Aunt and Uncle also met up with us as well. We had so much fun. We did a lot of things including; snorkeling, Luau, Beach time, Travis and Becky's Vow Renewal, outrigger canoe, surfing and lots of great restaurants. It really was so amazing. We stayed at the Outrigger on Waikiki. The staff was so amazing. The housekeeper made it a point to always welcome our day and close out our night. She remember the kids names and left nice notes. I would really suggest staying there. Jimmy Buffet's restaurant was soooooo amazing. We only went the last night had we known we probably would have gone every night. Breakfast was a buffet that was included in our package and was facing the amazing Pacific Ocean every morning. I can't even begin to say how difficult it was to come home.

Hanama Bay this is where we went snorkeling. Kenney, Nana and I saw a turtle. He was really cool and looked really hungry. Nana and I were paying too much attention to the turtle and missed the baby hammerhead shark that was just over the other side of the reed. Kenney thought it was pretty amazing.
This was our other view from our balcony. Diamond Head. Really amazing.

Travis and Becky's Vow Renewal
Great Grandpa & Grandma also had a great time.
The boys couldn't sit still to watch the whole vow ceremony so Papa & Nana took the boys to play in the sand.
This was our morning/breakfast view.
Spam is really big in Hawaii ever since the military brought it over, McDonald's even serves Spam. This was Spam Jam a big street fair. It was really hard to go anywhere.
This was our view from our bedrooms. Can you believe it? So amazing I was inspired to read my Bible.

Gavin did a lot of this. He fell asleep 2 times at dinner. One night he was chowing down on a crab cake the next minute his head dropped and he was sound asleep.
