Hawaiian Vacation...

We took a vacation to Hawaii with Chance and Kristen.  Well, or should I say we Honeymoon crashed. :)  We stayed at the beautiful Hale Koa right on Waikiki beach on Oahu for our time in Hawaii.  We did some relaxing in the sun, enjoyed some drinks while watching sunsets on the beach, hung our with Uncle Rich while he was there with us(thanks for staying longer to spend time with us, we really appreciated it a lot!), went to the Hale Koa luau with excellent food and entertainment, checked out Pearl Harbor and did the submarine tour and tour of the battleship Missouri this time which we had never done before, went on a dinner cruise and saw the fireworks from the water, did some shopping and walking along the beach, had Valentine's supper at the Hale Koa at Biba's, spent my birthday walking along the beach and doing a little shopping and had drinks along the way and then had supper at Hard Rock Cafe along with a birthday desert, and on the last day we drove around the island before heading to the airport.  Guessing I'm forgetting something that we did.  It was a nice trip.  We had decent weather, a bit windier and cooler in the evenings than we've had in Hawaii before but it was still great.  I only picked some of the pictures to put on here because there are WAY too many to do all of them on here.  But I do have them all on our Shutterfly family page so be sure to check them all out there.

I have them split out by the day of the week while we were there because there are just so many.  I'm hoping to come back and put a more detailed description of what we did on each day eventually on both sites so check back if you are interested later on.  Just trying to play catch up and get pictures posted of everything that has been going on.  It has been a busy, busy, busy few months. :)
