Going to hawaii with the Grover side was one of the best vacations i think we will ever have the chance to go on. We did all the busy stuff first... like Pearl harbor, and The Polynesian cultural center, and walking around Honolulu and Waikiki.... so when we ended up on the most beautiful island all we had to do was relax.... wake up and decide which beach we wanted to go to today or taking the kids to the pool. No worries about going to work, or making sure the bills were paid, or going grocery shopping(which we went to costco when we first landed on Kauai and all chipped in for groceries which saved a ton of money and we got to spend more time at home eating and not debating on where to go for dinner) Just plain old relaxation. Not to mention the scenery was breathtaking, every twist and turn on the highway was covered with beauty. We went snorkeling, I think I deserve a medal for that, I don't even dare to put my head under water at the swimming pool and I floated around breathing through a tube for hours. We spent one day at tunnels beach(named for the tunnels of corral) and we saw the most beautiful fish, such vibrant colors. UMMM and the huge SEA TURTLE we saw there was unbelievable, it just minded its own business while Casey and I sat and watched it eat from about two feet away. I didn't like the salt water though, it made my skin and hair feel very gross, and the sand that managed to get in every part of my body. I very much enjoyed the day my kids threw a big fit to go to the pool rather than the beach and I went home still feeling like a I had human skin. I will never forget all the memories, and lets not forget the reason we all took this vacation.... To spend time together as a family before Brett(casey's youngest brother) left on his mission. We are so proud of him for this decision and know he will be greatly blessed, he is such an insperation of what a young man should be and i hope my sons can grow and learn from him.
