Our Trip!!

I don't even know where to start! There is too much to say. We were prepared for the flights with some dramamine for Kaders and it was heaven sent. The flights both ways were actually easy. The kids played games and i held macie and Cam was in charge of Kade. We certainly got our fair share of looks-expected!

The lobby was amazing. We actually got in at 8pm (to the hotel) which was midnight our time so we were all cranky and Cam and I were overwhelmed thinking what have we done trying to bring all these kids to this amazing place! We were persuaded into using valet to unload and that's when they started counting kids. Cam had said two kids and got us one room with a pull out couch-kade and macie would have been in our beds anyway. but i made the mistake of letting the kids go in the hotel while Cam was checking in and that's when they made us get another room! LAME! so I was already bugged with the added expense and cranky and the kids were now hungry. Well we got to sleep and the rest of the trip was wonderful-except the two boat rides!

The swimming pool was soo fun and perfect for Kade and the kids! (macie was asleep in the stroller)

You can seen the ocean in the background

Kade's first and last time down the slide

Trey's first of MANY-loved it!

He Loved the ocean-It was soo warm

Kade just chilled with me on the grass while the kids played in the ocean-and macie slept in the stroller-he was not a fan of the ocean

This was our favorite spot looking out at the ocean. Cam and I snuck down here after putting the kids asleep on our honeymoon night and actually fell asleep for a bit! It was beautiful and sooo peaceful!!

Kade loved the birds in the Lobby

Macie was always getting comments on her smile!

So paddle boarding looked soo fun but wasn't as fun as it looks-at least the first time. I would be willing to try it again but I didn't need much time on it before I was done. Cam got surf lessons for Bryson and we rented a board and took turns while he was taking lessons. It was a little crazy with the babies

Bryson was a natural. He was the only little kid and was the first one up

Now this trip was a success We were both a little nervous for this hike but this was something I wanted to do. I wanted to hike to a water fall. It was perfect!! We took the stroller most the way-it was probably only a mile in. the weather was perfect and the kids loved it!

This luau was our favorite! it was on our anniversary and they asked all the honey mooners to stand and then anyone celebrating an anniversary-we both stood each holding a baby and our other three kids with us (little did they know I was pregnant too :) It was awesome food and the kids loved the dancing. We had to explain why their clothes were immodest.

10 Yrs!!!

The breakfast was an ordeal every morning-kind of at least everyone looked at us like it was but it was soooo yummy-fresh pinneapple was such a treat!

The lamest well almost ride ever-the next day was worse. We went on a whale watching boat ride-it was two hrs too long. We were soo lucky to at least see these dolphins literally swimming right next to us and jumping-really cool for the kids but we really knew we wouldn't see any whales because it was the end of the season.

one tree a mile long-it was all connected

Hard rock cafe-over looking the ocean

The nights were really cool-all light up with these fire lights. Cam and I ran two or three of the mornings -along the beach while the kids slept. we took kade and macie one morning in the stroller

This was the lamest!!! The snorkeling was amazing and the kids loved the slide off the boat but kade and trey both trey up and I had to hold macie for 5 hrs-it was soooo bumpy. It's a good thing I don't get sick when I am pregnant because I am sure I would have been horrible. It was worse than the plane ride. Cam went out with the kids while I stayed on with Kade and Macie and then I went for a few min. Something we would have done differently-just rented snorkeling stuff and not go on the dumb boat ride!!!

our kids were the only one's who dared to do the slide and get in the water. Everyone was surprised but the ate it up

This was not our favorite luau-boring dancing and not as good food but the fun stuff they did before was cool. this guy made a flower for brielle

If you make the picture bigger you can see kade trying to do a hang loose with his hand

Our plane got delayed on the way home_LAME!!!! the ipad was a great thing for the trip!

Below is a link to a video clip of Cam on our first night we went to a show and they asked for volunteers and I volunteered Cam-and he was a good sport-kidn't really have a choice and went up and I about died when he came out in a skirt and no shirt! It's a funny clip and the whole trip would have been worth coming just for this! We are sooo excited to go back!
