Christmas mornings are usually filled with wrapping paper, cookies, and snow...and generally racing downstairs to see what's laying around the Christmas tree is my favorite, but this year I was more than happy to give all that up for some sun and the beach. After years of begging our dad to go to Hawaii we finally went! Everyday was filled with being lazy on the beach and having shaved ice every.single.day. We went to the temple, Polynesian Cultural Center, more than one beach a day, and on top of all that trying to fit in all the favorite places to eat. On Christmas morning we went on a hike and by the time we were on the way down it had started raining buckets on us. We were soaked within seconds even though we had just dried off after swimming at the waterfall. Good thing I had a towel so that we could wrap the camera and phone up in it! I'm so grateful for a family full of goofballs that are constantly making me laugh. They are seriously my best friends. Now it's back to the snow to get my fill of skiing in.
Mele Kalikimaka!
