Aidan's camping wish come true

For Aidan's birthday we had a fabulous family camp out at Hanalei Bay where we camped on the river AND the ocean. We had good times and gorgeous weather. Every time we go to the North Shore I am amazed by the beauty I see there. I love the south shore too, but to me, the north shore is magic.

Jason made dinner each night...what a treat!

It was cheerios and milk for breakfast...we kept it simple

Sadie found a friend....

then her brother put him to sleep...if you rub their bellies they go to sleep

Fun on the river

Yes, they DO like each other...they even share a towel

Yes, after a full day and night of camping, swimming in the ocean and river, no flush toilets, and a quick hose down we got dressed up...a little...and went to church at our favorite branch. We love Hanalei!

Mo, who was injured in a car accident several years ago, paints with his mouth. We liked his paintings and even bought a couple....copies of course.

Sadie STILL thinks she's our puppy...this phase might never end

Sadie enjoyed her bike and riding back and forth on the Hanalei Pier

It's not as easy as it used to be....but I can STILL hold Aidan

We had a great game of early morning kickball at the beach park

I can't believe Jason can actually kick his leg this high

I don't know why this picture is sideways.
