Hawaii pictures
As a continuation from yesterday, I thought I would share a few photos from our vacation to Hawaii with Brett's family. This is the beach where Corinne first dipped her toes in the Pacific Ocean, she liked the waves coming up to roll over her and eventually got a little too adventurous when a big wave caught her in the face and delivered a splash of saltwater to her mouth & eyes. She quickly recovered from that hit and we moved on to building a sand castle complete with a moat that she helped me fill up (although the water just kept seeping back into the sand so it was a never ending project). Around lunch time Corinne decided she had endured the sand long enough and became very unhappy with her sandy hands, legs, face, etc. so we headed back home for a nap.
We were able to enjoy lunch on the patio looking out at the ocean on a very sunny day. Brett realized we hadn't lathered C in sunscreen so in an effort to protect her face & neck he wandered into a nearby store and bought a souvenir bucket hat which Corinne enjoyed and we all thought was very cute!
During most of our vacation, the optimal hours for pool time ended up coinciding with Corinne's nap, but there were a few days when she was able to float around and jump into the water. She is a thrill seeker and was constantly asking if she could go in the pool or even just lay near the edge to splash her hands.
We ventured out to a botanical garden and grabbed lunch at a 'local' joint that John picked out on the way back. Everything we ordered was fabulous! I shared a chocolate shake with Corinne and we agreed that it was quite yummy. After everyone had finished eating Corinne wandered down to the other end of the table to visit with Aunt Lindsey and "Uncle Jam"
Just a random picture of Corinne on the porch at the house...not sure what she was doing? Maybe she was looking for the geckos we kept noticing all around the house, and once even in the house!
Corinne was very excited to be given the daily chore of feeding the fish in the koi pond at the house where we were staying and thought it was the greatest thing ever when they would swim over to retrieve the food pellets she thew into the pond.
Overall, it was a great vacation and I think Corinne enjoyed getting to spend so much time with Memaw & Papaw, Aunt Lindsey & Uncle Jam and our very special guest, Pauline (Jamie's mom!).
