Hawaii 2009

So we all went to Hawaii for Thanksgiving this year! We stayed at the Hilton, and it was amazing! Our rooms had a view of the ocean, and the dolphins, which the kids got to swim with! It had its own lagoon that came in from the ocean so it was full of turtles and all sorts of fish. One of my favorite place's was this beach mom took us to, the kids loved it because it was really shallow and the lava rock had it closed off from the rest of the ocean it was so warm and the water was so blue! Mom surprised Morgan Tiff ,Danny,and I with massages at this amazing place, it was something off of a movie I swear! We walked through this rain forest setting and then they took us to our own little private hot tubs, where we got to just relax for 30 min then we got to get couple massages! It was so fun I will always remember that, Thanks Mom!! My Mom is a true little hippy chick, she is so cute! Every morning she would get up early and go sea shell hunting, she is a pro at it too she actually has this stick that she found on one of her trips over that she brings every time she goes back to Hawaii. She uses it to dig through the sand, and she found so many neat shells! Ali and Ashton loved hunting for them with her! I couldn't help but miss Dad while we were there though. I wish so badly that he could have been there with all of us, we all miss him so much especially on family trips like this one, it's just not the same without him!

I loved watching my kids have so much fun playing in the sand and swimming in the ocean, we made so many memories while we were there. Thanks for the amazing trip mom, Love you!
