Hawaii was amazing, we packed so much into our time there. It was so fun to get to know Beth's family more they were great hosts. Unfortunately Steve was the only one not able to make the trip with us, August is a busy time for a fire fighter. So now he and I will have to go back for our own trip!

Jimmy on the plane, enjoying his 7-11 scorpion lollipop, so gross but he loved it.

Tiara stretching her legs on the plane, coming back to visit grandpa.

Here is some of the food prep for the reception, Kahlua Pig cooked in the ground. Seriously so good.

The reason we came to Hawaii, Marshall and Beth's reception.

Here is just some of the delicious food at the reception, traditional luau food I really like most of it (no thanks on the squid, not pictured).

The girls (plus Jimmy) took a hike to the Makapuu Point light house.

Most definitely in paradise here.



Of course we had shave ice as often as possible. Thanks to Beth we found some really good shave ice in Laie.
Sunrise on Kialua Bay, so pretty, definitely worth waking up early.

After church showing off our leis (mine had to be cut to comply with Hawaiian superstition about pregnancy) thanks to Beth's family for getting us all leis.

Visit to Pearl Harbor and the USS Arizona Memorial


Visiting the Polynesian Cultural Center

Games in New Zealand

Tribal Tattoos (encouraged by their father, probably the only time that will happen!)


The temple in Laie, under renovation but still beautiful. I loved the grounds, so many beautiful flowers.

Jimmy loved all the fresh coconuts he found almost every where we went.

Looking out at Chinaman's Hat (the island) the boys kayaked out and hiked to the top.
We came back throughly exhaused but had a lot of fun and made some good memories, now we can't wait until next time!

that looks like SO much fun! There sure is a lot to do on that little island. The humidity must have been fun being 6 months pregnant and all :)
You can tell you had a lot of fun! The wedding looked beautiful and fun.
Now I just need to talk Jeff into going over there.
Gorgeous pictures Erin! So sweet you got hooked up with Hawaii. And look at you all cute and pregnant!
