We got to go to the North Shore on oahu for vacation this year. We were there for 2 weeks. It was loads of fun. I found a house to rent up in Hauula. It was right near the beach, with easy access to a beautiful view. We went with Luke's sisters family and their kids. It was nice cause our kids got to play with their cousins the whole time. My brother also came out for a little bit of the time we were there. We also saw Luke's parents for a couple days on Oahu. We mostly just relaxed while we were there. We went to the beach as often as possible and just sat while the kids played with their cousins in the water. We did a couple touristy things as well, like the PCC and Hanauma Bay, dole factory (had to get that pineapple ice cream!!), we also went up to see the Heao, of course we ate at Hukilau cafe a couple times, we even had time to stop by wher Luke proposed to me, it's always fun to stop back by there, we also stopped in at Angels, any of you recognize it? We got some huge snow cones there!! We also went to a BYUH Seasiders basketball game, like old times, except this time we didn't sit with the students :) Luke loved walking around campus again at BYUH. We stopped in the seasider a few times for some Haupia (coconut) ice cream, yummy :) I actually began to feel kind of like some weird, old people walking around campus (with no reason to be there), knowing that we really aren't college age anymore! With Luke around though, we still ran into many people, made friends and visited with old friends, and teachers. It was tons of fun to catch up with those who are in the area there still. I already miss it!! I was never really ready to come back home to the cold.
Glad you had a fun time. We should have a family reunion in HI!
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about not wanting to go home to the cold too. Maybe that's why we haven't gone home for good yet:)
Looks like fun! I'm jealous having never gone to Hawaii. And your hair is so long. I remember at Ricks when you chopped it off! Oh, and I really like your family picture up at the top. So cute! Merry Christmas!
ReplyDeleteAw man, I love the pictures and the recap. We totally still miss Hawaii. So fun to see Hukilau Cafe and I love your icecream picture! haha Glad you guys had such a fun time.
ReplyDeleteLucky ducks! Looks like you had a great time strolling down memory lane! That's awesome! We miss it so much! What a special time that was in our lives. I'm so glad we can keep in touch with special friends we made there, like you guys! Hope your holidays were super happy!!
