Grammie Visits

The girls had a lot of fun when Grammie came to visit. We all loved the tide pools at Kaena point that are there in the winter months. I wasn't sure how Brooke would react to the dole pineapple plantation train ride but she loved it! We also had a nice sunset dinner next to the beach @ the waterfront @ puuloa. We also enjoyed the likeke falls hike Brooke even hiked 75% of it. In the bottom picture Chloe is showing off her biggest cone shell find from Kaena point (It's the biggest anyone in our family has found)

Brooke turns 2

I can't believe where the time has gone my littlest girl is now two! She has a spicy personality and lets it be known her likes and dislikes, as many two year olds her favorite word is no. She still remains very cuddly and gives awesome hugs and sure loves being with her mama.
I had a little party at the house for her and her friend Charlie (he was born on Brooke's due date) and we had celebrated the kids birthdays together last year. The rainbow cake was yummy and all who ate it loved it! Brooke enjoyed opening her gifts and playing with her friends. She was even able to blow her candle out by herself!

Brooke's 2 year old photo shoot

I wanted to take pictures of Brooke at the Beach just as I did with Chloe when she was 2 got a few good ones especially considering Brooke doesn't like her picture taken like Chloe always has. We went to the waterfront @ puuloa in Ewa beach where our other stroller strides location is held

Day date Kaena point

I don't usually put too many pictures up of things Pat and I do without the girls but our hike to the point had so much beauty I would like to share. We had a close encounter as we came around a corner with a hawaiian monk seal that was about 10 feet away, were within 5 feet of an albatross, and saw large north shore waves and a beautiful flower, hope these beautiful pictures of hawaiian brightened your mainland winter you may be having

Zoo Fun

Both girls are now enjoying our zoo trips. Chloe favorite animal continues to be the giraffe and Brooke loves the dessert fox. Both girls also love the kids area with the fish tunnel and patting the goats
