Hawaii Part 1

We took a last minute vacation to the island of Kauai this summer. It was more beautiful than we could have imagined and the weather was perfect. It wasn't too challanging to travel with the kids and Grace had a blast swimming everyday in the ocean and or the resort pool. The hardest part was readjusting to the time change once we got home. I took plenty of pictures and will spread them out over a few posts. I hope you enjoy looking at them as much as we did visiting the island!


Peyton enjoyed teething on cold slices of fresh pineapple.

The beach at our resort.

Our beach/poolside cabana. Great spot to get out of the sun and Peyton enjoyed taking her afternoon naps here.

The local vegetation was amazing to say the least.

The view behind Tunnel's Beach.

We really enjoyed coming to this spot. It was made famous when local surfer Bethany Hamilton survived a shark attack here. You can google it if you want all the gory details. It was a beautiful beach and we spent 2 days hanging out here.
