What a fun trip we had to Maui! It was the best family vacation ever. My whole family went, including my parents, and the Gailey family. We enjoyed 10 sunny days together. I couldn't have asked for a better way to spend the beginning of this holiday season. We are truly blessed. It would not have been possible without the generosity of my awesome parents! We love you!!!
While we were in Maui we had many days on the beach just having fun boogie boarding, swimming, snorkeling and soaking up the sun. We also went on a snorkeling excursion where we saw many fish and even a few turtles. One night we went in to Kaanapali and enjoyed a Luau which was awesome. The kids loved it and the food was delicious. We did some exploring and shopping but mainly just took it easy and enjoyed being together as a family. I will always remember the fun we had and I know the kids will too.
I didn't think Brooke would be able to snorkel, but I was sure wrong. She is such a "fish", it didn't take her long to figure it out and I was with her when we saw our first turtle. She was so excited.
Connor enjoyed it all. He was not afraid to try anything and was in the water 24/7!!
Me, grandpa, Kaylee, Cierra and Brooke on the snorkeling boat!
All 13 of us! I'm so blessed we all get along! I love my family!

You can't go to Hawaii and not enjoy some shaved ice. It was yummy!
This tree was amazing. It had so many little trees growing off of it. It was really cool to see.
This was before Brooke knew how to snorkel and she was using a board that had a window so she could see all the fish.

The food that was Sooo good!
Boogie boarding in a puddle at the beach when the waves were just too big to go in.
This would be the wave that knocked Sean off his boogie board. He hit his head hard on the sand. We are so lucky he didn't do more damage.
This is what it looked like right after it happened. Skip down a few pictures and that is what it looked like the next day. It is pretty much healed now, except a little scar.
We loved the condo pool and was there every day after a long day at the beach.
Fred's was a really good Mexican restaurant where we all went for dinner.
Brooke was a little whiny by day 9. Sher was beyond exhausted!
Here is the aftermath!
