This time last year, twenty family members gathered for a much anticipated and once in a lifetime vacation in Kailua on the island of Oahu in Hawaii.
It was everything we had ever dreamed it would be....breathtakingly beautiful, intoxicating and filled with new and exciting activities...
We were truly blessed to be able to take this extraordinary trip and to share it with those we love.....This summer, we will gather again....but like most other summers....we will be at the lake house....much calmer...very relaxing and still beautiful......maybe we will have a luau?
We most certainly will have fun!

ReplyDeleteHi Laura
ReplyDeleteHow lucky you are to have been there. My parents have been a few times and love it. They have both travelled a fair beat but the haiwaian island are their favourite destination. My Mother found it a serene place filled with beauty.

ReplyDeleteWhat fun! Family time is always a blast for me. Maybe I should mention Kailua at our next cousins party. ~Mindy
ReplyDeleteOne of my dream vacations. When I was a kid I use to beg my parents to move to Tahiti. Seems funny to think of that now.
ReplyDeleteGoing to the lakehouse and visiting you is now my dream vacation!!!
