A great day at Chun's...

 Kaiser and his friend on the beach greet with a hug :)
 Sergio got to teach my mama how to surf! And it was a successful attempt ;)
 Nice stance mama ;)
 Kaiser practicing and mama heading out for the waves...

 For a little guy, he has NO fear!
 He got some huge drops that day at Chun's!
 And she's UP! WOOHOO!! We were both very proud of her!


 The sunset was beautiful as we were leaving...

Journey Campers get great waves!

 These campers come from all over the US to spend a week at camp here in Lai'e...
 Most of the counselors come from Utah and spend the month here...
 Angel and her 3 sisters are our locals here representing Hawaii and catching the biggest waves :)
 Every day we are blessed by a huge arching rainbow overhead!
 Some of the kids from Alaska have never left their villages of only 140 PEOPLE! Incredible!
 Woohoo!! The waves were great and everyone had a blast!

Floridian Fam

 The learning process is always a funny experience....but it all makes sense once you hit the waves...
 Mollie waving to the camera! This is the face of someone who just got hooked on surfing!
 She even caught 3 waves all by herself and Sergio accompanied her to show her the techniques...

Surfing hand in hand :)

Sergio and I catching a wave together at Chun's Reef ;) My mom was the photographer on this one!

Family Fun at Chun's...

 A really sweet family did a surf lesson with us on Sunday....

 The sisters were both nervous about how they would do...but they rocked it!
 These two little adorable brothers kept me occupied the whole time! Doesn't get much cuter than that....

 He's going to be a great shot putter later in life I can tell...
 They were never short of creative ideas! They entertained themselves the whole day!
BUCKET!

Memorial Day Bash

 Zach and Josh jumping off of the terrifying "towers" at Waimea Bay on Memorial Day.

 I told the boys how Sergio loves a good sand crab sauteed up with garlic and lime juice...so they took it upon themselves to gather as many as possible...they came up with a whole bucket full!
 This guy got the splash award for the day....
 Sergio always has to switch things up...yeah he was the ONLY one I saw go head first...maybe because the water levels are a little lower than comfortable for diving...
 The herd of menfolk :) Gotta love all these guys! What a fun crew to hang around all day!
 Uncle Vic and Sergio have formed a special bond...they understand each other when no one else does haha!
 Such great boys in that family...they have an awesome dad to follow after!
An amazing family that shares light and love everywhere the go! Washington DC will be blessed by their presence :)
