Our Babymoon

We just got back from the most relaxing "babymoon" ever. First, let me start off by saying that from the moment we found out we were PG Chris started planning this trip. He said that we were going to spend a week somewhere warm, tropical and where we could just relax and enjoy one last vacation before the baby. Well he succeeded!! We spent a week on the beautiful island of Kauai in the town of Princeville. We had a fabulous room at the Princeville resort that overlooked the ocean and the mountains. The entire week was spent laying by the beach, swimming and relaxing. It was something we both really needed and enjoyed. We did find the time to tour the entire island- checking out where my mom and dad had vacationed in the 70's, we did a 6 hour catamaran tour of the NaPali coast and enjoyed many great meals. I am just so sad it had to end. I could really get used to waking up every morning to the sounds of waves crashing on the beach (and of course the crowing rooster outside our window) and sitting by a beach all day. On the way home we made a stop in Seattle and spent a few hours at Pike's place market. Chris had never been so I thought it would be a fun treat. He was in awe of all of the fresh fish.

Now that we are home and back to reality we have to focus on some of the finishing touches of our house. It looks like they will start sheet rocking next week! So all of the tile must be picked out, the floors need to be finalized and we need to decide on some wallpaper choices. So it will be a busy week.

But here are a few pics of our trip. Enjoy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Aloha...welcome to paradise
