Last night in Kaua'i and oh ya...Lei's

Our Last night in Kaui was great. We went to dinner at some sushi joint ( I had chicken) and while we were eating this cute Hawaiian girl came by selling leis.. so, our sweet little husbands bought us each one. They smelled so good- I wish it would have made it home. The sunset pic was taken from our deck- it was such a pretty night and you can see a cruise ship in the back..very cool!

Cory and kelly
Brandon and I..oops Brandons eyes were closed!
So excited for the lei!

Boat ride around the Napali Coast

On Thursday we took a Catamaran around the Napali Coast. I didn't realize you could get that many views of the Napali Coast but we did. Along the way we saw a baby whale and lots of dolphins and then near the end they let us snorkle and Scuba dive.
These would be the dolphins- there were so many that surrounded the boat.
I guess this was in the movie Jurassic Park..I thought it was interesting.

Brandon, Murry, Tara and Lloyd went scuba diving. They didn't see much but they had fun. Kelly and Cory decided to snorkle and as for me and Zanna- we decided to take it easy on the boat..actually Zanna had a sprained ankle from the hike and I decided to keep her company- that is when I heard that there had been sharks in the area..I know I am the biggest boob but at least I was safe...right?

Our hike up the Napali Coast..

On Tuesday we decided to go on a hike up the Napali Coast to see a waterfall. Brandon had decided he would be better off staying on the beach because of his leg injury.. So, I went anyways and I am so glad I did. It was so cool. Coming from Idaho just 4 days before to this really green island..it was so pretty, actually unbelievable.

This is Tara and Lloyd in the water at the waterfall. It was really cold so they weren't in long but they did it..I just watched and decided not to freeze my fanny off. I am so proud of them...Hee- hee!
The girls..Zanna, Tara, Me and Kelly!
So if you look really hard you can see a dot on the beach...that would be my wounded Husband..if you can't tell- I'm not feeling to bad for him!
Kelly was nice enough to be my other half since he wasn't able to make it..thanks Kelly.
Yes, that would be the girls again..It was just so pretty up there that we kept taking pics.
This would be the Napali Coast..


Surf lessons...

Ok..so on Monday we decided to have surf lessons..I would have never thought I would do it ( you all know I have this fear of sharks..dumb I know- I grew up on watching Jaws) anyways it was very fun and I didn't even see a shark! I wish I had pics of us actually surfing but it didn't happen since we were all in the water. Oh ya..On Sunday we flew over to Khaui for the rest of the week.. This was in Khaui at the house we had rented.
Getting the lesson...The guy on the surf board was our instructor..cool guy. I think all the info made me more nervous than actually doing it.

Laie Hawaii Temple...Beautiful

On Saturday morning we got up very early and went to the Laie temple. It was dark when we went in but when we came out the sun had come up and it was so pretty..

Brandon and I...this is one pic that he didn't make a funny face..
Lloyd and Tara..
Cory and Kelly.

Welcome to our Hawaiian trip!

On February 29th Brandon and I left with three other couples to Hawaii for a little rest and relaxation. We started our trip out in Oahu for a couple days at Turtle Bay. Tara bought all the girls these cute hats for a gift so we decided to take some pics in them obviously as you can see the men felt left out so we took a picture of them in them also. Aren't they the cutest??
