Hawaii

In January of this year (2012) Harrison and I were able to go to Hawaii with my family.  My parents, Trent and Whittney, Scott and his fiance (who he proposed to in Hawaii), my aunt Michele and uncle Robert, and Harrison and I all went.  We left Alexa at home with Harrison's family.  Although we missed her like crazy, we were able to talk to her through a lot of Skype :).
We stayed in Laie on the North Shore.  We had a lot of fun visiting the attractions, playing on the beach, and doing everything else we tourists do.  Some of the things we did were go to the PCC, the Laie Temple, Pearl Harbor, hiking, rode mopeds, and went kayaking and snorkeling.
 We saw lots of really cool and unique fish while snorkeling.  The last time we went, Harrison saw a reef shark, on accident, and that was pretty scary.  One of my favorite things we did was play in the water with the dolphins.  This has always been a dream of mine and it was so fun to see how they interact!  The PCC was also amazing!  I loved learning about the different cultures of the various islands you get to learn about while you are there.  I think Harrison's favorite part of the trip was riding the mopeds around the island.  I think he liked it so much because it was the closest thing to a motorcycle and he misses driving those around. :)
It was so nice creating these memories with my family and my sweet husband. Here are a few pictures of the trip:

 It doesn't show it on the video below here, but he actually did make smoke! :)

A pretty waterfall at the PCC.
Sorry, my non-tech savvy- self couldn't figure out how to turn the picture the right way...
