Thanksgiving at the beach

We spent Thanksgiving in Kauai! We had a lot of fun and it was just nice to be away from real life! The kids traveled super well (which I worried about more than I should have)! We spent most of our time on the beach. Some of the other things we did while there--hiked, zip lined, ate enough junk to last us a year, snorkeled... Here are a few pictures! Oh and to come--we surprised mom with a professional photographer to take family pictures. I'm just waiting to get them back!

Getting ready to go zip lining in our COOL gear! It was a lot of fun! We did a zip and dip--so we zip lined and got to swim in this private fresh water place and eat lunch.

Building forts with Grandpa. (We carried, in the car, those sticks from one location to another because Kyden "needed" them. He is so random!)
We broke open a coconut and then all ate it. Braden thought it was pretty cool and good!
Braden loved the waves and swimming in the ocean! It was fun seeing the kids have so much fun and enjoy themselves!
Hang loose!
Riding in the "cool" car--in there car seats I might add! Nothing like riding in a convertible in carseats!
The gang at church.
Thanksgiving lunch--filling our bellies with PB&J's! Yummy (I guess)!
Thanksgiving night we had the actual Thanksgiving food! Braden in his Hawaiian attire!
Kyden eating his food.
I hate to admit this, but we went to bed every night no later than 9! We were exhausted and the time change really did us in! We flew a red eye and got to Salt Lake around 9 Saturday morning. We then drove to Twin Falls for Jason's Family Thanksgiving dinner. I'm so glad we went! We were just a tad bit tired but it went smoother than I thought and it was fun to see everyone there!
