Well, after a couple more fun surf sessions, a day of snorkeling in aquarium-like waters with porpoises and neon colored fish, an authentic Hawaiian Luau, and a drive up the coast to a perfect white-sand beach, we're packing our bags for the morning flight home. It's not easy leaving a place like this. We may just have to come back soon.




Oh, I almost forgot... that perfect white-sand beach I mentioned above (Hapuna Beach), well, we got kicked off the beach because there was a tiger shark sighting. I guess there were 5 sharks ranging in size from 8-20 feet lurking around near the shore. They were first spotted by an airplane flying over the beach. We got there just after the sighting and everyone was standing on the shore dripping wet looking out at the sharks. So we enjoyed the perfect beach for about 10 minutes before they made us leave. I don't know why I'm complaining, getting kicked out is better than being eaten alive :) Here's a pic of the guy closing the gate on our way out.
Here's a picture of Aidan at the Luau. Is he as cute as I think he is? Sometimes you wonder if you're imagining things because you're a parent and it's your kid.

The view from our lanai was breathtaking. These pics don't really do it justice.

Hey Mike - GREAT PICS! I was wondering, what do you shoot with when you are on vacation? What's your "pocket camera" of choice? I want to buy a camera to take with me everywhere I go and figured that the advice of a pro would be the best. Thanks!
Just to confirm, Aidan is as cute as you think!
He is cute. But can he take photos like his dad can? :-)
Your family is beautiful. Aidan is as cute as ever!! The second will be just as awesome. But remember that God has a sense of humor... he gave me a quiet one and a firecracker that we have to aim or we have complete disaster (and she is only 15 months!).
Thought you would enjoy my quote for the day...
Blessings...
My name is Pride. I am a cheater.
I cheat you of your God-given destiny… because you demand your own way.
I cheat you of contentment… because you “deserve better than this.”
I cheat you of knowledge… because you already know it all.
I cheat you of healing… because you’re too full of me to forgive.
I cheat you of holiness… because you refuse to admit when you’re wrong.
I cheat you of vision … because you’d rather look in the mirror than out a window.
I cheat you of genuine friendship… because nobody’s going to know the real you.
I cheat you of love… because real romance demands sacrifice.
I cheat you of greatness in heaven… because you refuse to wash another’s feet on earth.
I cheat you of God’s glory… because I convince you to seek your own.
My name is Pride. I am a cheater.
You like me because you think I’m always looking out for you. Untrue.
I’m looking to make a fool of you.
God has so much for you, I admit, but don’t worry…
If you stick with me
You’ll never know.
