DAY 10~



Today we go home, we were so sad. We checked out of our hotel and took one more lap around the grounds of the hotel and took some pictures before we had to head out to the airport. We were going to find an ABC store on our way to the airport, but couldn't find one. We found a mall and went to the food court to eat lunch and then realized time was going faster then we realized and we had to skip getting all of our souvenirs and head straight to the airport. Doug had to drop us off and then return the car and meet us at the gate, i don't know what happened, but we barely made it in time! I was sad, cause i kept putting off buying things cause i didn't want to lug it around with me and i knew we would do some shopping right before we left, but it never happened, so no gifts to give to friends and family, I am sorry:( Our flight left at 3:00 Hawaiian time and landed in Portland at 11:30. We had a layover until our next flight home at 6:00am. It wasn't quite enough time to go get a hotel and just long enough that we went a little crazy! We thought we could just go to one of the restaurants and have a late dinner but when we got there, we didn't realize that everything would be closed! We were the only ones in the airport except for the cleaning crew, it was kind of creepy. We knew we were going to have a long layover so we each packed a blanket and pillow and hoped to get a little sleep in. It was really hard to do with the intercom coming on every 20 minutes or so. Tyler and Haden finally fell asleep, i rested a little, Doug and Josh i don't think could sleep at all! It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be and would do it again if it meant we could go to Hawaii again!! All in all it was a successful trip, and i am so glad that the magic 8 ball wasn't right! Now i am trying to get back to life, i cant believe how tired i have been! I need a vacation after our vacation!!

How sad...no macadamia nuts, no pineapple, no souvenirs...I think your pictures are the best souvenirs you could ever have, and it'll help you remember it all. And I'm sure you'll go back again, right? All your pictures were really great.

Thanks for sharing your vacation with us. I feel like I was there with you because you described everything so well and your pictures are all great. Your family is so cute. Your boys are lucky to have you and Doug as parents - you seem to always have alot of fun together. Maybe your old aunts should go with you next time. Aunt Liz
