Summer Fun

Can't believe the summer is almost over...here's what we've been up to.



Hawaii



To start off the summer, Pat and I took a vacation to Hawaii...it was beautiful!

I wish vacations could last forever.


The ocean was amazing...this beach had the prettiest blue water I've ever seen.





Cute little hula girls.


Pat and I, at the hotel lobby.



Driving around the island, we saw some pretty neat scenery.



Pat's appetite was a little crazy after a long day of sight-seeing.
(He ate the entire pizza, and some of mine also.)

We hiked through a beautiful rain forest, to see Manoa Falls.

The beach outside our hotel was pretty peaceful in the morning.


We went snorkeling here at Hanauma Bay.


Girls Night


Last month, when Pat went to the "Father's and Son's" camp out, we had a little girls night.

Here is Tehya with her two little cousins, watching a movie and eating popcorn.



Camping Out


Last week we camped out in my parents backyard.


After setting up the tent, Kyler and Tehya jumped right into their sleeping bags.



Tehya knows how to make herself comfy.


The kids helped Pat prepare the campfire.





Sitting by the campfire, eating junk food.



Tehya knows exactly what to do when her candy's all gone...
go for Kylers, of course!



Kyler still loves her though...he's a good brother!


They had fun shoving whole marshmallows in their mouth (or attempting to.)


In the morning, they went out and picked strawberries
from Grandma and Grandpa's garden.


Tehya had some major bed-head going on.


Smelling Grandma's pretty flowers.

We had so much fun!!! Thanks mom and dad for a wonderful weekend.



Roaring Springs



Kyler went on this huge slide, and loved it!

The look on his face was a mixture of excitement and fear.

Brain-freeze!
