Zoo Trip

After getting home from Hawaii we rested for a day and then headed to the zoo for a little family time with 'cousins' from Ferndale and France.

Hawaii Day 5

Our last day in Hawaii started a bit rough but was still lots of fun.  We didn't take any pics of the airplane trip home so this is the last post of our Hawaiian vacation.
Kate spent a couple days with a fever.  We ended up taking her to a walk in clinic thinking it might have been another ear infection but no luck, just an unexplained fever.  Poor girl but she was a trooper.
First stop, Waiola Shave Ice - it is sooooo good!





Then we went to the Bishop Museum and saw them make lava, after that we explored the rest of the museum.










Haha, Kate needed a break from the museum so she ate a little banana, I snapped this picture right before she moved the banana to take the peel out of her bite.
Then we all went out to a fun dinner at Buca de Beppos to celebrate our last night in town (and Jeremy's and my 12th anniversary).

Think these kids had fun on this trip...YEP!

The whole gang at the restaurant.
 
A video of the lava, pretty cool.

Hawaii Day 4

We started day 4 with a gorgeous hike and then headed to the beach.  What a way to enjoy the amazing scenery and sunshine.


We did this same hike 5 years ago when we there last, Jaydon was about Kate's age that time.

After finishing the hike we headed to the beach for some more play time!
They caught some crabs and enjoyed creating places for them to stay.



And we finished our beach time by enjoying blizzards, seriously, it has been an amazing vacay so far.
