One last sunrise and Views of our Mountain and our Lake

I'll miss this beach!




My parents flowers match their house :)
This view isn't so bad either :)

Sam's 21st Birthday

 We were sad that Sam wasn't in Hawaii with us for their birthday :(  We sure love them!!  They have had a big year this year with officiating Kimber and JJ's wedding, a big surgery, new girlfriend, new education plan, and quite a few medical issues.  We are hoping this year brings answers to those medical things and that they can continue to grow and be happy as they go to school and have fun with Morgan and friends!




Our Last Full Day: Matsumoto's, Keiki Beach,

Of course we needed one more trip to get shave ice!





Once more group photo (missing 4 people though!)
Konrad's cousin messaged us and said they were staying at Turtle Bay so they came to get shave ice and go to the beach with us

haha Jack!


We had to say goodbye to Richard, Michelle, and Nati
Once last gorgeous sunset before we left the island early the next morning!




We had such an amazing trip and I was pretty sad when we got home.  I love being with my extended family.  I love always having someone to talk to, play a game with, cook dinner with, but also just sit next to while we watch TV or read our kindles on the beach.  My parents spoil us rotten and we are so grateful for the time they give us by providing this opportunity for us to spend so much time together. Typically after a month of vacation I'm ready to get home, but I wasn't ready this time.  I could have stayed longer for sure.  See you again in 2026 Hukilau!  Aloha and Mahalo!

Stickers, life in Laie, and Sunset with the Coats

Cam became obsessed with making stickers and then made cute packaging to put them in :)

She made everyone of these stickers covering her notebook 

Snails in Hawaii have pretty shells :)
pickleball/basketball with the fam
acai bowls for lunch

Pink Ladies :)


Spike Ball
Konrad found the tiniest dried out little fish, he made the trip home with us and lives in the shell jar from this trip :)
My mom had a hair twin sitting in front of her at church:
Dinner time :)
The Coats are in Laie!!!  So we met up with them at church and then at Sunset for Sunset:
