Hawaii 2024

 How is it sometimes 2 weeks goes so slowly (like when Christopher travels) and sometimes it flies by (like when I'm in Hawaii)? We have another amazing Hawaii trip under our belts, and as per usual I have way to many pictures to even try to post adequately on here (hence a book is started!). But Hawaii needs a place on our blog - so here are a few highlights:

1. Ben joined us! Because of school commitments he wasn't planning on making it this year BUT once summer classes started and he had a little chat with professors, he figured he could miss a few classes and still be ok. We found him amazingly cheap tickets and he joined us for most our trip! Yes, he had lots of homework and spent lots of time on his computer BUT he was in Hawaii with us and I could hug him anytime I wanted to!

 
2. Christopher, Ben, Kallie, Andrew, and Zack went to Hana AND camped overnight. They had amazing adventures that included lava tubes, black sands beach, and their tent blowing over in the middle of the night and getting rained on and finishing the night in the car with Andrew asking every hour for the windows to be rolled up or down.

3. Surfing lessons! 



4. Seeing Lahaina after the fires. So heart wrenching.


5. Amazing Grandparent dates - and Kallie's last one






6. Xander turned 3!

 

7. Our little family arrived a day before everyone else and enjoyed the Marriott resort.



8. We played a crazy amount of Pickleball



9. Dan and Emily slept at the airport because of the mircosoft update. They left a day before us - and got home a day after us. So sad!



10. We took family pictures!

 


11. Guys Day 

 

12. Girls Day

13. Adult Night Out


14. The boys took up spear fishing and were really good at it!
