Trip to Hawaii









We took the girls to Kawai in March with the Manning Family (Nickey, Scott, Noah, and Grayson) for 10 days. Although being on the plane for 6 hours with two little ones pretty much rated as one of the most tortureous experiences I've ever had, the time in paradise was spectacular. I don't think Jasmine walked anywhere for 3 days after we landed, it was run, run, skip, run, jump, swim, run some more all day. For once in her life, she begged to go to sleep each night she was so tired. As you can see from the photos Kawai was magnificent. Matt and I got out for a scuba dive one morning and heard the whales singing under the water for the entire hour we were down. We kept looking over our backs thinking we'd see one they were so loud.

Highlights included: Jasmine snorkeling for her first time and seeing 3 sea turtles on her first trip out, drinks on the Manning's patio every night as the sun set,visiting a new beach every day of the trip, falling asleep to the sound of waves, spending time with good friends.
