Kauai-Day Four and Five

We rented boogie boards and headed to another beach. The waves weren't very good, but it was very pretty.

Day five we headed North and Allen and Devin took a Surfing class from the "super cool" (complete beach bum), Justin!

They had a lot of fun and picked it up really quickly. Ariane and I enjoyed laying on the beach and reading!

"Super cool" Justin!

Then we hiked to a big cave. It was dark and the water inside was very cold, but we decided to go for a swim. We tried taking pictures inside, but it was just dark. It was really fun!

Then we went to another beach, snorkeled, and relaxed.

On our drive back we caught this beautiful sunset.

Kauai-Day Six

It was beautiful weather and we knew we wanted to go back to the "rainy day beach", so we made the muddy, BUMPY trip back. It was so worth it! We watched locals surf and we enjoyed the sun and the beautiful scenery.

Kipu Falls

We hiked to Kipu Falls and enjoyed jumping off the falls and the rope swing. It was awesome!

Kauai Sunrise

Our last morning there Allen and I headed out early to catch the sunrise.

This is the shore line around where we stayed.

We had such a great time. It was so nice to get away, just the two of us. We are so grateful for my Mom, Dad, Rachel, and Paul for taking such good care of our kids. We were able to completely relax and enjoy being together. Thanks Devin and Ariane for all of the fun and laughs!

Easter

Yes I know it is the end of May, but Easter was the day before Allen and I left for Hawaii. No worries, I am getting caught up!


We had a lot of fun coloring eggs. Rylee was so excited and is still asking if, we can paint more eggs today.

It seems like it has been a few years since we were able to have a outside easter egg hunt. The weather was good and the kids loved finding eggs at my Parents house! There are a lot of good hiding places!

Help from Mom.

Rachel and Paul were great finders.

We had a really nice day and then got the kids settled and headed home to leave for Hawaii the next morning!
