Mahalo Ke Akua

Aloha! Here are a few highlight pictures from today, our first official day of vacation. It is so fun to have absolutely NO schedule! We are appreciating and enjoying every second. I learned a new Hawaiian phrase today. It's "Mahalo Ke Akua", which means "Thanks be to God". Our hearts are truly thankful to Him for this much needed family time. You wouldn't believe all the things that happened to us the last week that almost stopped us from coming. Kahuna and I had to stop several times and just pray. God took care of the details, and here we are. We hope you'll check back in with us each day and "virtually" join us on vacation! We'd love for you to come along!

I wish I could just jump right in the pictures in to the sunshine. Well we have sunshine, it's the freezing cold I don't like.

Looks like fun for all. Enjoy!
