The sunsets were of course incredible. I couldn't stop taking pictures of them. I am so blessed to have such beautiful fun children and a husband who is my best friend. I will never forget our time together in Hawaii this summer.

I could not keep Ethan out of the water. He would race straight for the ocean without any fear. He loved it when I would swim out with him and lift him above the swells as they would come crashing in. When the kids weren't swimming they were in the beautiful perfect sand digging and building. Such fun!

Breeanna helped so much. She was so much fun and we were all very glad she came. Ethan couldn't eat his ice cream fast enough before it would melt. The other picture is from our day at the Hilton. The kids enjoyed the opportunity to kayak in the lagoon. They were actually really good at it by the time we left.

These are from our trip to Hawaii back in June. This was Joel's first time home since leaving for Kuwaitt. He is in Afghanistan now and we miss him so much but we loved this vacation. So very fun and memorable for us all.
