My cousin and her husband are in the Army and have been stationed in HI -we feel really bad for them- Needless to say; their current location and our need for a vacation provided the perfect scenario for all of us to get together!

Analee and I may or may not have taken a billion pictures of ourselves in the car as we drove around the island for days.. this is just one of many :) Our first excursion day (Monday) we started at Pearl Harbor, I am not much of a history buff but it is very fascinating to me the things that have taken place and shaped the country that we now live in.

This is because it was Valentine's Day and I was trying to be artsy.
That wave washed the word away right after I snapped this picture so I was happy to have captured it.
"It's a DOLE life"
Then of course, another beach and some boogie boarding! Sadly, while we were out playing in the water the life guards called everyone to come to shore because an agressive acting shark was in the area....I am not as brave as Bethany Hammilton and I'd like to keep my arms.... and legs for that matter! 

Wednesday: We hiked Diamond Head it was a tough climb but so beautiful! It overlooks Waikiki and you can see out over the ocean for miles!



And , you guessed it another day ended at the BEACH.

Then a quick stop by the famous Hukilau Cafe!
and the rest of the day at the PCC!
We learned how to make fish from banana leaves, watched the canoe parade, attended a luau, watched 'HA breath of life' and got tattoos :)
(if you can't tell its snow and stormy winter weather)
