Aloha!!

We decided to take the kids to Hawaii for Spring Break, just for fun.  We only went for two days and one night, but it was so much fun!  It was fun to play in the warm sun on the beach and just spend some time together as a family.  I love our little whirl wind family trips, even if the airport part of it can be stressful.

At first, even the little waves seem big and you must run from them.

Daniel and Nicholas just like playing in the sand.  Who doesn't?

Sweet baby girl

"Bird, you ain't gettin' any of my crackers!"

We wanted to take the kids to see the temple for a few minutes in the morning while it warmed up.  The kids were not thrilled at all.  I wanted a nice picture of the kids in front of the temple and Nicholas put up a protest against being in any pictures.  He didn't know he was in this picture, or he wouldn't be in it, but I got him!  This was as good as it was going to get, good enough, I guess.
