McKenzie and I got to go on a girls trip to Hawaii for 2 weeks this past month. We were going to go out to visit Amanda and help with the kids while David was supposed to be on a sub for 6 months. Turns out, he had to come home early, so we got to see him which was an added bonus...especially when he watched all the kids including McKenzie so that Amanda and I could go out shopping and to dinner. We had so much fun. The plane rides were worth it. (Of course that is the worst part but McKenzie did great...better than me!)
Some things we did in Hawaii:
Fun at the Dole Plantation...eating pineapple ice cream, riding the train, and feeding the fish.
Driving the Escalade around the block and pretending they were taking each other to school
BBQ chicken at the Hale Koa in Waikiki, then play at the beach until dark, grab a piece of cheesecake from cheescake factory and watching the fireworks at the beach....it was a great day!
We had lots of chances to swim in the ocean
At the Zoo
Shave ice from Matsumotos....where Dawson had the worst day of his life when Amanda ...trying to be sneaky...dumped some of his shave ice on the ground because it was too big. He ran to the other side of the van and saw what she did. He was not happy!
Became mermaids in the sand - with water wings just in case the mermaids can't swim very well!
Play at the beach and watched the waves at the North Shore
I know it's a bad picture, but this is whale watching at the Makapu'u light house. It was really cool. We saw a lot of whales...or a few very active ones!
