Lisa and I enjoying the view - Waikiki Beach

 
This is the view from Waikiki Shores Penthouse 

Hanauma Bay

Today we went to Hanauma Bay. The snorkeling was amazing!! So many different kinds of fish and I even saw a baracuda. At one point the waves were really strong and I was getting swept onto the rocks, it was really scary because you couldnt control it and there was coral everywhere that you cannot touch! It was still really amazing!!

PipeLine

We drove to Pipeline beach where they have all the surfer competitions! I took this picture of this little boy because it looked neat how he was so small compared to the huge wave. After this we went to this shrimp place, they were the best prawns I ever had!

Photo Shoot!!!

After playing in the waves, we went to a more secluded part of the beach and took a bunch of pictures. People kept coming over and asking to have their picture taken with us. The funniest were these japanese girls who wanted 6 group pictures. We had so much fun, and got alot of sun!!

 
Here is Lisa at Waimea Bay beach, Northshore. The waves were so big that we were only allowed in some parts of the water. 

Northshore Journey

 
These our some pictures from our drive to the other side of the island. We rented 3 jeeps and had a blast!! 

 
View from Waikiki condo! 

Oahu!!

Last night Lisa and I went for a walk along the beach, there is so many fun things to do here. Oahu is like a big city crammed on a little island. The view from the condo is amazing!! 
 

Maui!!

 
This is me at the beach outside our condo - Kameole
Right now we are in Oahu! I am so excited because tommorrow we are renting trackers and going to the north shore of the island. Our flight tonight was very short and the plane only sat 12 people. Chris smuggled fireworks over for New Years, but we didnt know they were not allowed. We were so scared when we saw the WArNING sign. Soo lucky, because they even checked his bag, and no fine or jail time! :) 

Run on the beach

This morning I ran down Kehei road to Surfers Cove and to this other secluded beach. So many people are out running and jogging so early. I took these pctures while on my journey!

Kehei

 
Today was a day of going to the beach, to the pool, and then back to the beach. It is so nice and sunny... Maui is paradise! I love the birds and flowers everywhere. 

 
Here are pictures from my first day in Kehei! 

Hawaii ! ! !

 
After what felt like a whole day of travelling, we finally arrived in Maui. We had to stopover in Oahu and our flight took extra long because of wind conditions. Our condo is great though, right by the beach and lots of space. This picture is of Haleakala mountains from the air while flying over Maui. 

Christmas Collage

 
Lots of family fun! My mom bought us Cranium and we had a big family game after opening presents and before dinner!!

Here is me and my cousin, it is his 1st Christmas, we had alot of fun seeing him open his gifts, well mostly just look in awe at his presents while we all helped rip them open. Soo cute!!!!! 

Christmas Eve!!

Well it is 12:30 am and officially Christmas Eve. I am about to go to bed...Tonight I relaxed at home, started packing for Hawaii and made chocolate truffles for Christmas day. Later my mom and I watched "Miracle on 34th Street" I love this movie soooo much! It is so sweet and lighthearted and very Christmassy!

Christmas Sweater Party!

HIGH SPIRITS!!

I am really happy right now! Not only because it is Christmas time, and because I am going to Hawaii in 6 days, but because I just am just in good spirits! Today at work, I was so happy to be there that I volunteered to work the dinner shift as well as lunch. They needed an extra person, so I was like "Ill do it" and I ended up staying there all day.

Kelsey gets home today! And Chloe got home last night!! There is so little time left and I am trying to see all my friends before I leave. Today I saw Elyse!

After a buffet breakfast, we headed down to the outdoor pool and hot tub. It was so cold outside, that we had to walk on ice in order to get to the hot tub. Stepping in actually hurt alot. The view was beautiful!!
