Hawaii Long Overdue

It's hard to believe we've only been back for a little more than two weeks. Hawaii seems like a dream now. As I go through the pictures all these wonderful memories flood back of my vacation. Two of the most enjoyable things about the trip without children was one, waking up when I wanted (which was still around 7:30, but I got up on my own without someone demanding breakfast or crying about a toy), and two, concentrating on feeding only myself and no one else (two luxuries motherhood does not provide at home).

We spent the last week of October in Kauai. My wonderful parents took our dear little ones, while Trevor and I reconnected in paradise. We met up with our good friends Wil & Mako and Phil & Holly for golf, swimming, dining and sight seeing. We took so many pictures it was really hard to narrow them down for this post.

We saw a pod of maybe 40 dolphins swimming around our boat.

Golfing at Lagoons

I played 3 rounds of 18 on this trip (that's a lot of golf for me).
