Aloha or as Daphne says "Hello-ha"

The beginning of March Daphne and I were able to hop on a plane with Shannon and Norah to go visit our good friends the Thelen's in Hawaii. We had so much fun visiting them and we can't wait to go back!


 Playing on the boat at Kona brewery.
 Coen and Daphne are too cool for the back seat.
 The first beach trip.


 Beach trip number two.

Norah Noodle in her super cute suit!


 Sweet baby Marin and I.


 Mammas and their beach babies.



 Coen took this picture of us. He is a pretty good little photographer.

Enjoying a lychee on the lanai.

 Visiting the cave at the volcano.

 Daphne's first time bowling and she loved it!


 Annother great day at the beach.


Bakini baby Marin!
 Daphne's first shaved ice.



 We finally wore them out!

Trip to the zoo. It is a cool little zoo that they have that is free admission.
 Amongst the cool tropical creatures they also had a  potbelly pig and they even had a cow and goats.


 Beaching it again.



 Hula time.




 Black sand beach.





 Attempting to get a good picture of the two of us but someone just wanted to be silly.



 Before we flew out on our way back home we spent the night in Kona and hung out at the Sheraton resort.



 Jenni and I poolside with our tropical drinks.
 Early risers checking out the view.


 Oops this pictures should have gone at the beginning. These are our beatiful leis that Jenni and Coen greeted us with when we got of the plane. I wish they would last forever. They smelled so good!

Daphne can't stop talking about Hawaii and wanting to go back. It was so wonderful to not only be able to go there but to spend time with such great friends. It was definitly crazy at times with all four kids but we were able to laugh about it. We miss you Thelen family and we will be back!!!
