Fun @ the WorldMark at Maui

Dad & Edette celebrated their 25th Anniversary this past week! Hau‘oli lā Ho‘omana‘o!! Way to go!!! ;) About a year ago, they invited us to come party with them in Hawaii. They have time share points and got a condo for each of their kids & their families that wanted to join in their celebration. We are so grateful for their invite and this amazing adventure we get to have! Thanks Dad & Edette! We love you! XOXO
One of the fun activities we did at the World mark was making Kukui Nut bracelets at the Community room. We actually got to see a Kukui Tree later this week. We made bracelets and anklets. Love them!

We didn't get a chance to make one but I LOVED these Banana Leaf Bowls they made. One lady that was making it told me that she still has one from 15 years ago. They just dry out and stay gorgeous. Next time that I'm in Hawaii- I gotta get me one of these! ;)

One thing I love about the Time-share condo thing is that you have a full kitchen! We made an amazing dinner Sunday night. So delicious! We even BBQ-ed out our front door next to the beach. Fun!

The girls also loved picking flowers to put in their hair. They had flowers everywhere! Our favorite flower to pick was the Plumeria which is the most common flower in Hawaii. We picked ALOT of them during our stay. {I guess I should say that we picked them "up" ALOT. We tried hard to have the girls not pick things off trees.}

We found lots of Geckos around the condos. This little guy lost his tail when the kids picked him up. He is so cute and tiny!

Here's the view from Auntie Tauni (that's what Glory called her all week which was super appropriate because everyone is "auntie" in Hawaii! ) & Uncle Trave's condo. We stayed in a ground level 3 room condo to the right of here. We could hop the fence and cross the street to the beach!

Funny side note: The first night we were in Hawaii and driving to the condo late at night-- drivers were crazy!! They seemed to do whatever they wanted on the road. Run red lights- no problem. Park wherever you want- go ahead! Drive faster than the speed limit- it's your choice!! So that became our Vacation Motto- "It's Hawaii, we do what we want!!"
