Aloha Maui

We had this trip planned for over a year and finally it had come. I hadn't been to Hawaii in years so I was very very excited...nervous for the long flight but excited for sun and sand. We stayed 10 days on the beautiful island of Maui and I'm pretty sure I want to move there. The weather was amazing the whole time and the kids adjusted very well. All the sun and playing had them sleeping in no time for naps and bed time. Kris and I were able to go off for a few dates and I was able to meet up with my sister (who was also in Maui at the same time with her inlaws) for an afternoon. Lots of sand, sunshine, ice cream and shaved ice, good food, cards at night time, walks on the beach, amazing sun sets and memories that only a lifetime are made of.... 

Happy New Years! Drinks and cards on the deck

Yes I ate the whole thing

full of sand and loved the salt water..

Gav loves getting tossed in the air..me on the other hand I'm having a heart attack (please don't drop him)

And we came home to this....

Winter finally hit! The snow. the wind. the cold. These photos taken before the real storm hit. We stayed indoors for 3 days trying to stay warm and cozy. Just a bit of cabin fever started to set it ;)

Hot coco to warm up
