Monday we spent at the beach. The boys went surfing & the girls vegged on the warm sand. Everyone doing exactly what they wanted to be doing.

TUESDAY
Scoooooooters! We rode, oh did we ever! These babies maxed out at about 50mph (i never got that high, i had no need for speed on these wobbly things). Riding around the island was breathtaking. Kauai is known for its green, lush landscape- I suppose that's why they call it the "Garden Island" huh? We rode through town & through the fields & back roads. The scenery was my favorite part. We rode to a hiking spot, where we hiked to a waterfall- where we JUMPED! After a day of scootering we sat at a beach & relaxed.

Luke didn't need a ladder, he just climbed the tree

Chris on the rope swing

Luke is so adorable. He is definitely a heartbreaker

Before the plunge!

Im a little nervous..

Mari: "1, 2, 3... do something spaztic!"
Result:We all LOVED the scooters, the waterfall, the beach, & seeing beautiful Kauai. The trip couldn't have been any better, and it wasn't over!
plus..
We survived surfing (minor nipple injury aside).
We survived scootering.
We survived jumping off a waterfall.
I call it a success!
