Hawaii Trip-Warning Picture Overload

So we just came back from a fantastic trip to Hawaii with TC's family. We went to the island of Kauai and it is very beautiful there. We enjoyed the warm weather, going to the beach, the pool, some waterfals, a farmer's market and other sites but mostly being able to spend quality time with family. TC's whole family was together at some point in the trip and that has not happened for awhile. Thanks again toTC's parents for making this trip possible for all of us. We had a great time! Some of the most memorable experiences from the trip would be getting poured on at the beach and all our stuff getting soaked (hence why Savanna and Clark are in some of TC's and I clothes in a couple of pictures because we had two dry shirts in the back, hearing roosters crow every morning, and watching all the cousins play together.) Here's some pictures and they are in order from the end of our trip to the beginning.

Grandma, Lexi and Savanna walking to the beach
At the first place we stayed Lexi, Kaytlin and Savanna all got to sleep in the same bed. They loved it.
The Glass Beach (This beach has scraps of trash scattered that make it sparkle especially in the sun.)
Fun at the Beach!
Back at the Glass Beach-guess these got a little out of order.
Savanna and Clark coloring together at the first studio apartment we stayed at (TC and I got there two days before everyone else).
Enjoying a shake at a little cafe we went to
Cool snorkeling pictures
Spouting Horn
This seal was just chilling at the beach we went to one day. It was pretty cool to see. We also saw a turtle that day as well but I wasn't able to get a picture of it.
Fun at the pool-This pool was so cool! It looked like a waterfall and was very ornate.

Great pictures! =) Who knew trash on the beach could make something so beautiful? This was a fun trip - The girls all loved Forrest.
