We were so blessed in April to get to go to our “dream vacation” place….HAWAII!!!! It was the most unbelievable trip and one that we will never forget. We went to Maui first and then to Oahu. Our resort in Maui was unbelievable! It is right by the beach and the gardens/landscaping was gorgeous. As far as the islands themselves, we like Oahu the best because you can’t beat the gorgeous mountains of East Oahu and the amazing beaches at Kailua. Those 2 things were the most beautiful things I’ve ever seen. It felt like we were in a postcard. Here are some pictures from our trip:
Maui resort:
Our first morning there, we got up at 2:30am (which to us only felt like 7:30am) and drove the 2 hr. drive up Mt. Haleakala for the sunrise. I can’t tell you what an amazing experience it was. My favorite part was honestly before the sun started coming up because being that high we could see more stars than we have ever seen before. It was like there was more stars then black sky…Unbelievable. Unfortunately none of our pictures turned out of the stars, but here are some of the sunrise. It seemed weird to be so bundled up in Hawaii, but it was crazy cold up there!

Damon and I tried out our very amateurish photography skills, but we were really proud of a few of them: (Damon took most of these)
