Hawaii. Thanksgiving. Birthdays

For Thanksgiving Break my parents took all of us to Maui. It was such an awesome gift!! Also Brynlee turned 7. We let her open her DS before the 5 hour flight. She was excited to play games with Katelynn and we were excited she'd have lots of entertainment.
 We went to see tangled for her party. They loved it. if only ella would have stayed awake.


 Lounging around Chillin with uncle andy
 The girls favorite part was playing in the waves. (and Bryn added and loved shopping) Ella making a splash. You would think after wiping out. .. swallowing so much water you throw up ... you would want to take a break. ?!?! no not ella She would get right back in!
 Brynlee ridding in and Katelynn and Lyssa in the back.
 They had three pools with a kids ship...waterfalls. bubble pools...water slides. Too much to even do everything.

 Thanksgiving dinner! YUM!! no cooking...no dishes...no cleaning...what can be better?

 We took a boat to a snorkel spot called Molokini. Katelynn tried it  and all the girls road in these little paddle boards you can look in. The best was the sea turtles. The pics were on the water camera that I havent gotten yet.


 Waiting for the luau. It was so fun and the girls loved the dancing almost as much as Rachel loved the fire dancer. lol
 Kylee and Ella
 Thanks dad for the flowers! and the fun party
 Brynlee was too afraid. but Katelynn and Ella  got on stage and learned the luau. It was quite an event
 While Jeremy was off golfing This is how we spent the rest of the day. Jeremy's golf pics Im still waiting for too...but heard it was amazing.
 We loaded up in the vans..we dubbed the "dugger Vans" and went on the road to Hana. The was a muddy trail to see tropical plants and flowers...which unfortunately added tropical mosquito's.

 What trail isn't complete without the baby coming too. Ella called the seeds we were walking on "muddy hot dogs"
 Part of the van..
 I think my favorite was the black sand beach. you could hike up and check out the blow holes. Jeremy and my brothers were a little too daring..getting a bit wet too



 Ella always goofing around
 Grandma got them all little hula outfits..so cute.


 All from one tree. It was so amazing.
Thank you Thank you Thank you mom and dad for an amazing trip with lots of memories We had a blast and appreciate all you do!!
