Thanksgiving break in Hawaii!






What an awesome way to spend a week!

A Day in Kona

"Life is like a box of chocolates...." Notice the Nikes!

"Bubba Gump's Shrimp....It's a household name!!!"

And this was the small!!!!!!
We went to Kona one day and had a blast. We ate at Bubba Gump's Shrimp and ate the largest sno-cones ever!!!

Fun in the sun, in November!






Beach Bummin'






This was our favorite thing to do! Beach, water falls, and water slide. You can't get much better than that!

Every girls crazy 'bout a sharp-dressed man!


Gotta love the Hawiian shirts!



Let's Luau!!!!!!!!!


"Hang Loose"
Real-life hula girls!!

Roasted pig anyone????
We REALLY loved the luau. It was definitely Hawaiian!

Candids of the fun!

Before we left to catch the plane, I had to have a few pics from our balcony.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!






Boooooooooo!!!!!
At the end of the night, their goodie bags from Nonna went to rest with them!
The "Highlights" of the night.....
#1- Quinn and Hayden (mainly Quinn) requesting "glow sticks" from the owners of each house.
#2- Hayden's eagerness to be first (there was pushing involved, he even pushed Donald out of the way).
#3- Lily Kate's excitement that everyone was giving her 2 pieces of candy (little did she know everyone got 2 pieces of candy).
#4-Jack walking like the actual Jack Sparrow.
#5- Ethan having a hard time keeping up pace with the little ones!
#6- Hayden's motto: "Arrrrgh Maties- We informed him that "evening my fair maidens" was more fitting for his costume.
#7- The good food and fun at the Van Horn's place.
#8- The Halloween gag pulled on our neighbor Mike.
#9- Travis and Donald trying to take a picture of us girls (photography is not for everyone).
#10- Just having a good time with good friends!!!!!

Goin' on a hay ride!

Jake and his sister Nikki
Bryan, Laci, and Quinn along for the ride!
Entry of the Spooky Lane. Quite "spooky" I must say!
There is nothing more fun than a tractor-pulled hayride. Yes, I am a country girl!

WE BE SCARY!!!

Nonna, Kenji, and Nini...what are you supposed to be?
My knights in shining armor!
She gets her looks from daddy!
Since when has Skeeter been in the medical profession?
