WHALE WATCHING

In March Humpback whales migrates through the islands of Hawaii to give birth to their calf. So, one Sunday afternoon we decide to see it we can see it at the Point and we DID! It was truly an AMAZING experience. There were a couple of whales near to the Point and we could see them clearly without the binoculars. In one instant a whale jumped out of the water and we were in AWE! We didn't take any photos of them because we recorded with our camcorder but we had a MISHAP and ended up deleting everything we had recorded. DARN! But I was able to find a photo on the internet to illustrated what we saw. Here are so photos of us enjoying our whale watching.

Happy EASTER!

We went on a EGG HUNT and what did we find, but THOUSANDS of EGGS for us to FIND.
We went to a Egg Hunt the day before at the Neighbor's and had a BLAST. The reason for the Halloween pumpkin is because Mya's cute Bunny Easter basket was way too small and we wanted to collect more eggs.

HAMUANA BAY

What an AWESOME time we had snorkeling at Hamuana Bay. It's truly an beautiful place. Just standing on the shore and you can see the fish. Not just the little ones but the big ones too. There were some equipment failure when Tiffany and Leslie went snorkeling together but it was because they would bump in to each other and laugh causing leakage in their masks. This was Nathan first time truly snorkeling and had a BLAST. All he could talk about was the fish he saw especially the Humuhumunukunukuapua'a the unofficial state fish of Hawaii.

NOT SLEEPY!

After a long day of playing at the ocean and missing her nap, Mya just couldn't keep her eyes open at dinner that night. The funny part is she said "not sleepy". After this semi nap at the dinner table she caught her second wind.

Visiting Hawaii

My Sister Tiffany came to visit us in Hawaii for two weeks and we had a BLAST! We got to be tourist and explore the island. We crammed many great adventures through our her stay.

*Jogged on the beach.
*Watched the sunrises on the beach.
*Hiked to Mahuka Heia State Monument, Monoa Falls, and Waimea Valley Falls.
*Night Crab Hunting on the beach.
*Visited Haleiwa and had shaved ice and ice cream at MATSUMOTO.
*Snorkeled on Temple Beach and Hanauma Bay.
*Visited the PPC and watched the Night Show.
*Went to Hula Practice.(She didn’t try to hula, what a shame!)
*Went to Laie Point and saw the water sprays from the whales.
*Took her to school with me for music class.
*Saw a Monk Seal beached at Turtle Beach. (Forgot our cameras!)
*Played and Swam on the BEACH, BEACH and BEACH!
* Went Kayaking on the ocean. (Two amateurs trying to navigate the ocean, SCARY!)

Here are some photos of her stay.

The best part is, I got to spend time with my sister and reconnect.

Night Crab Hunting!

What a simple and fun thing to do with your family especially for Family Home Evening.

We took my sister Tiffany to experience this fun activity. We search the shores with our flashlights to see who can get the biggest crabs. We discovered the crabs were only calm in the bucket if it was dark but flash your flashlight on them and you'll see them trying to jump out. Which is kinda freaky! We had a blast chasing those creatures and trying to win. Best part of all after we are done we return them to the ocean.

Sunrise in Paradise!
