Lobster Fest!


Time for lobster:)


Funny how the vegetarian is the one adding the lobsters to the pot!


Half a pound of butter...literally. We all know that lobster is just an expensive excuse to eat obscene amounts of butter!


Build your own salad with bocconcini


What a feast!!





Note the copious amount of champagne and wine bottles on hand.


It was a fabulous night...and a rough morning! Whitney and I actually had tea, Caesars and salad for breakfast. Strange combo but it helped straighten me out...thank God!

Aloha!


We arrived in Kona on Christmas, so I guess this should say Kona 2009/2010, but I am lazy. lol


The things you see at the side of the road during the holidays! As you know, Jesus is the reason for the season...there was also a banner at this house that said "Celebrate Jesus".


No trip to Hawaii with our family is complete without a $600 stop at Costco to fill the fridge and liquor cabinet. Kevin also had a full cart!





Drinks on the lanai.




Kels & I made some yummy sangria...Kels had a weak wrist when it came to the Ketel One.



Tequila shots and rap karaoke came out one night.


So did all the freaks!




One of the best meals of my entire life at Jackie Rey's Ohana Grill. Seriously, it was unreal! Ahi tuna and mahi mahi.



Weird flowers that reminded me of trumpets.


Only in Hawaii!


Got to see lots of endangered sea turtles up close.


They were really beautiful.


Endangered sea turtle sushi...ha ha jk...the musubi combo at L & L. Yes, one of those is SPAM! And yes, it was DELICIOUS!


New Years at Lulu's





Downtown Kona.


Luau at the Fairmont...soooo yummy!


Hanging at the lava pools near Hilo.




One of our many delicious feasts.
Hapuna Beach.


Sandwich sweat shop at the beach!


Beach at Mauna Lani Resort.


We took full advantage of these loungers!


On the last day we were there most of the beaches were closed because of high surf.

The "Men" in my Life


I had a sleepover at Karen's the other day and she made the most amazing dinner...complete with homemade icecream sandwiches!!! So yummy!


Then I got to cuddle up with Matthew and Trevor and watch some tv.




Somehow cuddling turned in a wrestling match...


Boys! Gotta love 'em! :)


These two in particular are very sweet!

Summer Fun


In July we headed off to the Friesen family reunion in style....RV, costumes, sippy cups, baby and all!




I hope that Sarah and Suds have started saving for Ella's therapy early. lol




Sarah on sugar:)






We stopped at tons of cool places along the way to check out the sights!




We found out the hard way that Ella's a bit of jerk when she's drinking beer. Who knew?


We're all making our Ella face....Ella does it much better!


We wear our sunglasses at night! Cause that's how you roll when you're in Hope.


Whitney showing me her leg kick trick...apparently I am not very trusting of drunk people trying to pretend to kick me for some strange reason.






My sisters:)
