Aloha and Mahalo.

It was been a week since we arrived back from a wonderful 10 days in Maui. I had never been and always dreamed about going. Now as I look out the window and the sleet coming down, I dream about going back.
It wasn't clear blue skies and turquoise oceans everyday, but I think more important then all the fine details, our family of four needed that 10 days all together.
Our mornings were spent mostly at Makena big beach. Our lunches and home. Our afternoons either at the beach across the road exploring, or having a shaved ice/ice cream at some new location determined by Oskar.

My favorite things on our trip- besides spending time with my three boys: sleeping with the sliding door open and the warm breeze, road side stands selling local pineapple, mangoes, avocados, papaya's and Oskar's favorite-fresh coconut, watching surfers at Honolua Bay,

and chasing the waves under an evening sun. Oh yea-and a little town I wish we had more time to explore-Pa'ia. Maybe next year.
