just in time for sunset - day 1

after a 5 hour and 20 minute flight, we landed in kahului.  i'm happy to say there were no issues in flight - jack did great; dylan did great; ben, too!  (he only took two naps!)  another hour or so after landing, and we were off in our minivan, like a herd of turtles, barreling our way on down the highway, headed to kihei.

with sunset moments away, we grabbed our suitcases, changed into our long-lost shorts (or in my & dylan's case, dresses) and we raced on down to the tiny sliver of beach in front of our condo.  it's just becomes part of your day when vacationing on maui - squeezing in as many sunsets as possible.         

despite the overcast (and rain!), it felt great to be in 70 degree weather.  toes in the sand.  seeing both our baby's hair curl all up.  even benji relishing the weather.  i think he forgets how great it is until he arrives.  he wasn't all that excited to go, but once he's there, he transitions quite well to a shorts, sunblock and a smile.

 happy to be in the pacific
             my boys

this time, she's bold enough for the sand but unsure of that water...

who doesn't love throwing rocks???


...ok, she does, i promise.  
(just another girl-drama-moment.)


                                                    
lookin a little like a surfer



 big chunks of coral make the biggest, best splash


more fun to be had on day 2...
