Island Getaway

Where do you go to get away when you live in beautiful Hawaii?...Beautiful Hawaii, of course! Last month we did a little island-hop over to Maui. The best part about taking a three day trip like this is that we could pack very light and much to Phoebe's excitement, take a plane ride...and to ours, a very short plane ride. Here are a few highlights from our trip.


The view from our room-gorgeous. Every night, we fell asleep to the soothing sounds of waves crashing on the shore.


Time to relax!


Ready for a little crab hunt with Daddy!


Beach babe, digging in the sand.


The crab learned rather quickly that you just don't argue with a three-year-old...and so he gave in and participated in a little pretend play. Here he is driving the mini bulldozer.


A beautiful sunset in front of Mama's Fish House. If you go to Maui, you HAVE to go to Mama's...the setting is lovely and the food is divine!


Phoebe loves to take pictures with our camera. She is actually getting pretty good. One out of ten come out without a blurry shot of her hand in the mix-not a bad shot here of Mommy and Daddy. Yes, Phoebe really took this pic!

Sweet dreams!

Cool starfish!


A very long day with no nap, Phoebe has a little meltdown.


After it all, she said she needed some "alone time".
