A week in Hawaii

Well...it's time. No more putting off this post. We spent a week in Maui, Hawaii at the beginning of June and L.O.V.E.D it!!!! It was Taylor's first time to Hawaii, and I don't think it disappointed!! We stayed at the Grand Wailea and it was awesome! I don't care to upload every single picture, so here are some highlights. A view from our hotel:
Isaac was our navigator to the hotel from the airport:
Monday: The boys went ziplining--they said it was awesome. It was 2.5 miles of pure ziplining.

While they were ziplining, Beau took his first dip in the water. This was the kids "sandy beach" part of the pool. It was perfect for Isaac!

That night we took family pictures. This was us playing in the ocean when we were all done. Once of the best memories for me!

Tuesday: Taylor and I took the boys to a part of the island called Kula. There is an LDS church there which was the first branch established back in 1851 in Hawaii. It was awesome!

Our family inside the church.

When we got back to our hotel, we spent the afternoon swimming.

Wednesday: Day at the pool. Isaac LOVED going to the pool. This day Taylor, Tyson and myself did a "Introductory to Scuba Diving Lesson" -- scariest thing ever!! It just enhanced my desire to NEVER scuba dive!!!!!!!

Thursday: Girls day at the SPA!! LOVED it!

That night: ice cream!

Friday: Another day at the pool. The pool had cabana's that you could rent--we got a small one on Monday and the larger ones on Wednesday and Friday--they were perfect with kids! That night we went to Ruth Chris's Steak House to celebrate Taylor's birthday.

Saturday: Our last day :( This day, I conquered another fear (Fear #1 was scuba diving on Wednesday). Taylor and I were able to go just the two of us (thanks again mom and dad for watching the boys!) and we decided it would be fun to rent scooters and drive around Maui. It was AWESOME and I am soo glad we did it, but I have NEVER driven a scooter or anything two-wheeled in my life. (4-wheelers are way different than scooters!) Needless to say, the first 30 minutes or so I was sooo scared that I was going to tip or something... but the things we saw were so breathtaking!! Nothing like driving along the ocean coast in Hawaii!

It was a GREAT trip! We loved every minute. In the words of Isaac, "We miss Hawaii!" Thanks again Mom and Dad for a wonderful trip!!!!
