Annual La Push Trip

The 6 Pack back for another year together at La Push...and yes they have been going since they were little kids, and we have been going for the last 7 years...Twilight has nothing to do with it! It is actually annoying to have to share "our" beaches with Twilight fans!

Meeting up at the gas station, trading kids, and putting extra stuff in open spaces! We were packed to the brim-no wiggle room allowed!

Langston kids packed in!

Customary stop at Frugals for a DELICIOUS burger and seasoned fries!!

As soon as we got to our cabins, quickly unloaded, we always race to the beach...the kids race into the water to bodyboard!

Shawn and his girls

G had so much fun running into the waves with Kelsey.

Snuggling up by the fire

Returning from a beach walk with Daddy-just the two of them!

Whittling away by the fire

Football game-happens at least once a day!

Someone has to buried each year-this year, Gianna

Playing poker in a log fort on the beach

This girl did not stop running on the beach or in the waves! She could not get enough of it.

Daddy is such a great playmate!

Building a damn before the tide rushes in

2nd beach

lots of fun to be had on the beach

Signature drink

A skeleton the kids found...we found the whole body, but this was just the head

Getting ready for the football game on 2nd beach

Team 1

Team 2

The whole crew

We had been wondering where the guys were...they had snuck off behind a wall of logs to play poker!

Climbing the huge rock

Best buddies

Enjoying the life we are living

Hawaii Fun

The trees that gave us cover where we would read, relax, and sip on drinks.

As soon as we arrived Vinny wanted to "start doing things" and so he and Shawn headed out to snorkel...the only problem was, there was a big mass of rock they had to get over to get to the snorkeling! The blind leading the blind!

Rolling in the waves like the monk seals-which we saw our first day there!

They were sugared! So smoooooth!

Cracking each other up again!

Our 2nd night in Kauai we went to the best restaurant...cute outdoor seating, BYOB, and sweet band. We were so excited that we didn't have to SNEAK our drinks in our purses-it was expected!

Bev and Dave celebrated their 15th wedding anniversary this night. We took over the outdoor eating area with our fun group! Dave planned a whole ceremony for this special night.

He had made packets for everyone that included their marriage certificate, their vows, and pics of their wedding day!

His adored daughter!

Snorkeling at The Tunnels at Hanalai-it was amazing! The guys even got to swim with the sea turtles!

We spent a day at Poipu where Kim, Greg, Tiff and Scott were staying. The guys had a fun football game in the pool, where a little boy attached himself to their fun group as soon as they entered the water!! After a while they got ejected for rowdiness!

There must have been a "call disagreement."

The guys and their new little buddy!

Getting ready for dinner in Poipu

Walking to our Hukilau on the 4th of July-so fun!

We spent a couple days body boarding and the waves were amazing!

Stopping at Bubba's the famous burger stand for delicious cheeseburgers!

We got matching tattoos in Italian, meaning Family is Life.

Our last night we had dinner at Dukes, showing off our new tattoos! Vinny and Shawn bought matching Hawaiian shirts on the way there! They were pretty happy with themselves!
