Here Today, Gone to Maui: Wrap up

It's high time to wrap up the Maui highlights. I appreciate you sticking with me through all of these pictures....  here are some of my favorites from our last few days. On those days we ate, and ate, and beached, and ate some more.
 
Playing in the waves... or maybe forcing her in the waves? ;)

L&D play time!

STUD

Hope they're always this close.

Two men to admire.

Papa Wade's mad photog skills.

They got Ava in the ocean!

Maui No Ka Oi (Maui is the best).

Snorkeling!
 
Last Day snorkel adventure with the early risers!

Snow Cones @ 8:30 am

Dax's specialties. Mahi, Filets, and Caprese salad. mmmmmmmmmmm

Snorkel boat!

Love of my life

Fun in the sand!

Two Studs. Owen thinks Carson is the coolest person on the planet.

She thinks beaches are for eating junk food. Hopefully this memory will fade by the next time we're at the ocean ;) Hard to believe how long her hair is now compared to then!

Dax and I let our high-er maintenance daughters sleep in on the last day instead of snorkel. We treated them to smoothies and some sights.

She didn't seem to miss out on anything!


Deliciousness.

Said on the side of a shrimp truck.
 

Get.in.my.belly. From the shrimp truck!

Happy little Hawaiian darling.
 
Not happy little Hawaiian darlings.
We couldn't get a decent picture of the 4 of us to save our lives this day!

The Nieders did a great job, though!

Love these 3!

The red eye home really did leave us with red eyes. This one had a hard time falling asleep. She wasn't the loudest baby on the flight, but there were times she competed. I'm sure it felt sooo good for her to snuggle in to our bed when we got home.
 
Owen was a true champ....but he just couldn't hold out any.more. This was dinner the night we got home. I'm sure this will be the only time we ever see him fall asleep at the table!
 
As you can gather, we are so fortunate to have spent so much fun time in paradise. Thanks to Mima and Papa Wade for teaching us all how to vacation. Thanks for extending the invite to the Mimas and Papas on the other side, as well. It was joy in its purest form.
 
Until next time... which Owen hopes is very soon!
