Hawaii

JB's parents took us to Hawaii for a family vacation/ family reunion. It was a real vacation because there were no kids allowed! I did miss them though. At first I did not know what to do with myself in the morning, no kids to make breakfast for, clean up after, or beds to make. We had 8 full days of surfing, hiking, sleeping and eating. It was so relaxing and desperately needed.

The house we stayed at was beautiful and walking distance to Haleiwa beach park.
We had shave ice every other day.
MMMMM!
Hiking to a waterfall.



I swam and jumped off the waterfall. It was so beautiful.

After our long hike we went and ate doughnuts with custard fillings. They were hot and fresh and the best things ever.
Turtle Bay and ukuleles
The taping of the new Bethany Hamilton movie.
Messing around on the longboard in front of the beach house.
The green house with the white trim was the house we stayed in.
Pearl Harbor



Waikiki

Cheesecake factory. Avocado rolls.
The cousins and JB.

The apple store.

Waimea falls.


This peacock kept chasing after me.
Beautiful Hawaiian sunset.
We visited the Kontoes on our last night (they were in Cali almost our entire trip). He caught this Tuna that afternoon, it was the best tuna I had ever tasted.
