Mele Kalikimaka

The morning of the 20th we woke up and opened persents together before we went to the airport.

The 20th is also Matt's birthday poor guy had to spend the whole day on the plane for his birthday but that is ok beacuse it was worth it when we arrived in beautiful Hawaii.
It is like a whole different world over there. We went to the big island and stayed in Kona. This picture below is the view from the pool at our place we stayed.
We spent most of our time in the sunshine at the beach, pool, shopping and eating.
One of the days we took a trip around the island. We saw Akaka Falls, the volcanos and Black Sand Beach.
We also ate lots of yummy snow cones.
One of the nights we went to a luau. It was really cool.
Lots of fun and the food was great!
We had a really great Christmas this picture below on the right was our Christmas tree.
The other one was in the lobby. Matt hates matching with me but he made an exception for Christmas. We got matching shirts that said Mele Kalikimaka on them.
We also got to meat the Hawian Santa
The last day we decided to go parasailing. It was so so much fun! We loved it.
Definately worth the money.
Thank you so much to Frank and Carol (Matt's Parents) for spoiling us and providing us with a
Christmas we will always remember!
