Worlds of Fun

The day after I got back from Hawaii it was Jason's company picnic at Worlds of Fun! The kids LOVED all the rides!

Hawaii Report

All the girls surprised Mom and spent 5 days in Hawaii checking out Mom and Dad's stomping grounds!! It was pretty amazing!

We surprised Mom at the airport. She new Leslee and Shelley were coming, but didn't know about Martissa and me! I've always wanted a real flower lei!

Saturday we took out a pontoon boat to a sandbar and could walk in the middle of the ocean. It was pretty amazing!

We took a quick tour of the Dole Pineapple Plantation and had a pineapple whip for a treat! yum!

We visited the sea turtles sun bathing on the beach. They had a friend keeping people back so this is as close as we could get.

We listen to Dad's Ukulele skills and received a lesson!

Ate world famous Shave Ice from Motsimoto's! Yumm! I got Strawberry/ Pina Colada with ice cream on the bottom and sweet condensed milk on top!

Spent time (but NOT enough time) at the PCC. I loved the canoe parade with all the different islands doing their dance.

Visited the Macadamia nut farm. It is tricky to crack a macadamia nut with a rock and get it out whole!

Back to the PCC for dinner.

We didn't get to attend a luau, but I couldn't miss seeing them take the pig out of the pit!

Everyone ready for dinner! Mom and Dad just got off their shift.

We ate dinner at the Prime Dining restaurant. Those crab legs were yummy!

After Leslee and Shelley were off to the airport, Martissa and I still had several hours to kill before our overnight flight so we went out to the USS Arizona Memorial. It had a really neat museum that we walked through. It was pretty amazing!

Then we took an adventurous drive on the Tantalus loop. We got a great view of Diamond Head and Waikiki. After the loop we went and drove around Diamond Head.

We crammed all this and MUCH MORE into 5 days! It was pretty fantastic! Thanks Mom and Dad for a great trip!
