{ Summer Vacation :: North Shore, Oahu }

Alooooha!!! We're home! And I probably should've blogged about how wonderful and relaxing this trip was before I exhausted myself with the preparations for The Mormon Bachelorette. Starts tonight people!!! But we'll save that for another post...

Our Hawaiian vacation was absolutely perfect! The whole fam was there, we stayed in an absolutely gorgeous private condo in Turtle Bay, the little sis and I went running every morning so we could pig out on Ted's famous Chocolate Haupia pies every night, swam with sea turtles (twice!), ate way to much Shave Ice, basked in the sun til we were golden brown, enjoyed the most delicious Thai food, tried a SUP for the first time, did a little surfing, made sand castles with Little D, helped my bro buy the essentials for school: a surfboard and a scooter, and LOVED every minute of it!









This was just a sampling of how much fun we had on the North Shore. The rest of the pics are up on Facebook if you care to see more. It really was the most wonderful family vacation. I hope we get to go back to "pick him up" before he leaves for a mission sometime next spring!

It is NOT a girl thing! I think it's super cool to hear what guys think about things!
This was a bitter-sweet family vacation for me - but I do admit - This trip was everything I dreamed it would be with my family! Heavenly!
