A Hawaiian Anniversary

This might be my favorite shot of the whole trip! Starting him young up on that board. Plus Mitchy looks pretty hot! I love Hawaii!!!

At the end of July we went over to Oahu. Mitch had to do some work out there and it also happened to be right on our Ninth Anniversary! Yes, I cannot believe it but we have been married for 9 years!!! Wow, it is flying by! But we were able to celebrate on the North Shore of Hawaii where we got engaged! We took Asher along with us. He was obsessed with the warm water! He could stay in there for hours just splashing around like a wild maniac!

This one kind of looks like baby is just falling out of the sky, and I guess he kind of is!

There was a whole lot of this...just Asher hanging out in his tube! Our house is right back there on the shore.


Asher made friends with the Sea Turtle



Daddy is so fun!



As you can tell Asher is all about his daddy, he is smiling just being held by him.








The beach that our house was on was known for having lots of sea turtles, but we were so surprised at how many we saw, every day! One day we saw some just lounging on the sand so we went over to play.


The sunset of July 20th, our anniversary! Our friends watcher Asher so Mitch and I were able to go out to dinner at a really nice restaurant right on the sand. Then we walked to the spot where we got engaged on the beach and sat and talked for a couple hours, just listening to the waves crash...it was a perfect night! One of my favorites!





Waimea Bay for the day

The work Mitch was doing was with Brian and Rip Curl. The fun part is that we are totally friends with them and love hanging out, so we were able to all go over together and play for about a week! And Brian and Felissa bought there adorable baby Adelaide, so Asher had a little buddy to play with and while we were there, she taught our little Asher how to crawl! And she also learned how to walk! It was a big week for babies!



The beach behind me here is where they filmed Lost, one of my favorite shows EVER!


As soon as Asher got close to the sand he would lunge forward and grab a handful of sand and shove it in his mouth faster than I could even react! He is quick and aggressive and not the easiest of beach babies, but that is why Hawaii is so insanely amazing, because the water is warm enough that baby and mama can get in and play the whole time!


I took this picture with my phone as we were driving by Waimea Bay. Every time we go to Hawaii, we just love it so much, it feels like home and we talk endlessly about how we could make it work to move there.


Getting sandwiches and extra snugs for daddy

The view from our bed!!!
This was the backyard. The house we rented was on such a beautiful part of the North Shore! We loved it! I mean, wow...gorgeous!

Taking a nap in the pack n play...love watching him sleep with his little bum up in the air! Cutest thing ever!
