Chloe’s room has a pretty view of the backyard. Our magnolia tree started blooming just in time for our return.

A new mirror completes the room !

Zoey also got a present from Chloe.

Early mother’s day gift for me. 😉

We said goodbye to our old friend Keiko. Maybe we’ll see you again in a few years…

So sad that we’re leaving today… I’ll miss you Maui. Thank you God for the amazing time we had here…

Chloe and Shane both got to pick out oysters to see what kind of pearls they might get.

For settings, Chloe got a dolphin tail and Shane chose a lizard.

Tonight we’re going to a luau, a Hawaiian feast featuring hula dancers and music. I’m so excited for my kids.

My drinks. What. I can’t have two drinks at the same time?

My plate… too much?

Lunch takeout from the Fish Market.

Crab burger and lobster bisque

We signed up kids for surfing private lessons.

Here’s Shane’s teacher. Late.

Unfortunately, kids were too scared and didn’t really enjoy the experience. I think they are too young. Oh well, we’ll try again in 2-3 years later…

So Andrew and I got the private lessons as well!

Andrew finished a few minutes early so he got to take pictures of me riding waves!

Here I go!

I had an awesome time learning to surf! Wow. I’m loving it!

Whiles kids swam in the shallow water, I went snorkeling little deeper. The most amazing thing is no more than a foot into the water and you see fish already so it was great for kids! The reef is impressive and there’s a great amount of snorkeling discovery. I spotted some beautiful fish and saw some amazing coral reef and AND sea turtle. At one point, I was too close to it, I got a little scared. The guy stared right in the eyes and we swam parallel to each other. SO COOL.

Also the great part of it was it was only a few minute walk from our hotel.

I got a snail pet for Shane. He named him Gary.
