Staycation

Well we made it! We had our 1st (and apparently now annual) staycation at grandma and grandpa's. We had soo much fun. It would take forever to explain all the fun we had so I am just going to post some pics and some videos to show. Thanks to grandma and grandpa for having us all and to all the family for creating such a fun weekend. Love you all.
Here's grandpa ready for the big weekend


Grammy decorated so cute..





the "roasting pig" spot


Friday we had our "main event" where all the kids dressed up in their luau gear, and led by Chief Loganmehameha, we kicked off our staycation. You guys were all so cute.

Chief Loganmehameha

The whole crew

Even Grammy got in on the action (although we all know she started it all)


You did a little parade followed by a ritual "dance".


After your dance we decided to start the pig ceremony. Grandma and grandpa told everyone that they had a real pig cooking under ground like they do at real luaus. So we all gathered around to watch grandpa take it out.


All of your faces were so funny watching grandpa pull this thing out... and yes it was a stuffed animal. They tricked us!!! and boy was it a good one. On Saturday (after barely any sleep) we all just hung out, played games,shot rockets, had water balloon fights, went swimming, and just had a lot of fun. We had a whipped cream pie eating contest where we weren't allowed to use our hands. Mommy found one of the bowls with the $5 in it and Chelsea found the other one. It was really funny. Swimming like a big girl

Hailee reallllly enjoyed the whipped cream :)

Mallorey is a fan too

Here's Chief Loganmehameha flying through the air

and Chief wanna-hauk-a-loogey


Sunday after waking up at 5am (for some reason??) you decided it would be a good idea to slowly start waking everyone else up. You started with grandma and grandpa. Then one by one everyone woke up and we started another nice day. You even kicked it off with a little song.


After breakfast, we slowly started to get our stuff ready to come home. And by slowly I mean it; we didn't get home until 4:30, so we took our time. We did some puzzles, took naps, swam some more, watched dome golf, and just wnjoyed each other's company. There are soooo many funny things, scary things (possums), silly things, boring things, annoying things, and loving things that happened this weekend. Way too many to write about here, but just remember that you are extremely loved, Kendyl. You were such a trooper and so much fun to be around. I love you soooooo much. Thanks for an awesome staycation!!!!
