A long day at the beach and going out to dinner, did not make for a happy Alyssa! :(
At the end of April and beginning of May Doug, Alyssa and I took a trip to Hawaii to visit my parents. We celebrated my dad's 60th birthday while we were there, which was very cool.
We went to the Honolulu zoo, which was a pretty good. It actually had a lot more animals than I thought it would. Alyssa was not as interested in the animals as I thought she would be. Alyssa goes crazy whenever we see dogs or cats and I was expecting the same reaction. I was sorely disappointed. She did get somewhat excited to pet the stinky goats though!
We went to the beach everyday. Alyssa loves the water and the beach. She has a little pail and shovel which she loves to play with. My parents babysat Aly for two nights, which was super nice. One night we went to Duke's in Waikiki. We had an awesome salad bar, coconut shrimp, mahi mahi and hula pie (macadamia nut ice cream on an Oreo cookie crust with hot fudge and caramel sauce)...SO GOOD! We also had some awesome food at Chuck's steakhouse and Teddy's for burgers and shakes. Needless to say we probably came back 10 pounds heavier...stopping at the Cookie Corner every other day probably didn't help either.
While we were there, Doug got me a massage at a spa as an early Mother's day gift...it was so lovely. Thanks hon!
We miss Hawaii already..a week is not nearly enough time.
