Trip to Kaua'i

We had a great time on our trip to Hawaii. We are happy to be back because we really missed our little man and he missed us too! I have had a hard time this week dropping him off at school and the gym because he thinks I am not coming back. We want to thank Noah, Poppy, Uncle Whit, Bebe, and PawPaw because we could not have done this without their help. Bebe and PawPaw had double duty once Dallas arrived as they had Brianne too! Thank you all so much for keeping little Dallas!! Here are a few of the 350 pictures I took during our trip. When we were not lounging by the pool/beach at our resort we got in the convertable and went sight seeing. We visited Waimea Canyon which is known as "Baby Grand Canyon." It was spectacular. If you click on the pic below to make it larger you should be able to see a waterfall over my left shoulder. We hiked 8 miles along the Na'Pali Coast to a 300 foot waterfall. It was a really challenging hike but it was what Dallas and I enjoyed most on the trip. I don't think Kellee would say the same! Justin overheard some people discussing a lagoon on private property that all the locals go to and jump off a cliff into a lagoon. That was what Kellee enjoyed the most. They both jumped as did Dallas. Justin and Dallas also did a rope swing into the lagoon. No, I did not jump--someone had to take pictures right?? We also went on a "romantic dinner cruise" that did not turn out to be too romantic Dallas and I. I suffer from motion sickness and even though I took a dramamine tablet before we left I spent the entire 2 hour cruise sitting on the back of the boat where there was the most breeze and trying not to get sick. I still got to see all of the beautiful landscape but I could not wait to get off that boat! We enjoyed lots of great meals and we all got lots of reading done. I think everyone finished at least one book except me. I am reading The Pillars of the Earth and it is over 1000 pages so that is my excuse. Thanks again to everyone for keeping the Grandbabies!
