Day 1- After our 8 1/2 hour plane ride and 5 hours of sleep... not the happiest!...
A walk outside to see we are in paradise will quickly change that mood!
Who wants to go swim with me?
Ummm..seriously where are we? I love this place! There is none of that snow stuff and it is 100 degrees warmer here!...
Dinner at Japanese steakhouse with Great Grandpa Larry.
Not too sure about the gigantic flames shooting up... had to be far, far away!
Exhausted after our first day of playing in the sun!
Day 2 - Grandma and Sarah doing a little P90X! Looking good girls!
Enough working out! Someone take me to the beach!
Not too sure of the beach on day 2!
Oh ok, if mommy can get dirty so can I!
I like the pool better!
Say "cheese!"
Again, again Daddy!
I'm stayin' here all day!
Spaghetti dinner @ our place! ~ Cousin/Cousin in-laws!
Grandma Rita and our chef for the night- Aunt Cathy made spaghetti, froze it, packed it in her suitcase and fed us all and it was delicious!!
Dance party after dinner!...Neighbors below us did not like! I'm still laughing at what the lady said when she came to the door to yell at us! "It sounds like a god damn bowling alley up here!"
Alaina and her camera... had to have this everywhere we went!
The daily unpacking of the suitcase and trying everything on!..Fun for Alaina..NOT fun for Mom and Dad!
Day 3- Excuse me.. I'm on my way to the beach! Notice the purse and sunglasses... these were also a must have everywhere we went!
Weeeee!
Cousin Evelyn escorting Alaina back to the pool!
"Omg... look at the beautiful sky.. let me get my camera out!"
Auntie Cathy and Jan ~ Looking beautiful as usual!
The Bride and Groom arrived today!
Pickin' the sand out of my toes!
Family pic #100 or something...
Uncle Mike and Auntie Sarah ~Boogie Boarding!

Hey Great Grandma Rita! Wanna come find some fishies with me?
Lunch at the Four Season's Resort -looking out over Manele Bay (where we spent the day). The most beautiful views, beach and snorkeling!
Jake -showing us how to get a coconut!
A little crabby after a long day at the beach and a short nap!
Waiting for the ferry to take us back to Maui!
We saw lots of whales and a pod of dolphins on the trip to and from Lanai! You can barely see, but here is a picture of two whales off in the distance. Beautiful. Alaina liked the big fishies!
Alaina and the Father of the Bride - Uncle Kevin!
Day 5 - I'll title this one "Curtain FUN!" - she must have played in them for 10 minutes!
Wednesday was the bridal shower for Lei, again very beautiful!
Lei and the kids, I thinks she's ready?! ; )
Day 6 - Back to the beach we go... it's a rough life!
Weeeee!
Swinging by the ocean - a daily activity for Alaina!
Done at the beach...time to move this party to the pool!

Day 6 - Back to the beach we go... it's a rough life!
Still not too sure about the beach.. hold me tight Pa Pa!
Snuggles with Daddy at the beach!
Getting a little more brave..
Look Alaina... Grandma likes it!! A LOT.
Grandpa Larry and Brian
Move out of my way, I'm going to boogie!
Whew... that was fun, but I need a nap before our night out in Lahaina!
Family pic #??, banyan tree's in Lahaina. Pretty cool!
And one more...
Finally some other people... Auntie Cathy, Cousin Sarah and Adam.
Dinner on the ocean @ The Mai Tai Lounge
Heaven in my mouth.!.!
Mommy and me
Day 7 - Pa Pa and Ga watched Alaina for us so we could go snorkeling at Molokini! It was once again beautiful...but we didn't get to see my favorite part of the trip... Turtle Town! Because of the heavy rain we got two days earlier, the water was still a little cloudy. However, on the way home we saw a baby whale with it's momma, so that made up for it! Oh and we did see a couple dolphins too, which made my day even better!
Being silly with Auntie Cathy.

While we were doing that, Mike and Sarah were taking a helicopter tour of Maui, they got great pictures! I am really jelous and wish we would have done it also!

Day 9 - Loving the beach! Yes, Alaina finally got used to life at the beach one day before we left! 
Fist pump!
Fist pump!
The last day...of course we find the best beach~absolutely beautiful, but a little too dangerous for the little ones...and their mommies! The waves were the biggest we had seen the whole trip and they break right on the shore! 
The island off in the distance is Molokini- the island Brian and I snorkeled at.
Taking Auntie Sarah for a ride!
Grandpa and Me!
I'm stuck!
Our last family pic in Hawaii!
Ooops, just kidding...one more!
Our last Maui Sunset! : (....
