well we went to hawaii last thursday. it was amazing. i felt so unprepared because we didnt plan anything-no plane tickets, no hotel, no activities, nothing. we didnt even find out when we were leaving until tuesday. but im not gonna lie i liked it that way! it was so relaxing to just go and enjoy ourselves.
for those of you who dont know, the reason we went is because of sams work. they take the top ten salesmen on a trip each year, and we were fortunate enough to get to go.
wow. all i can say is if anyone is thinking about doing summer sales, these are the guys to go with. i know there are a ton of great companies out there, but these guys really are awesome!
our trip was short but it was incredible! it was my first time and sams second going to hawaii and ill i could keep saying was you WILL do your masters program here. i want to live there so badly!
there were 18 of us who went and everyone there was awesome. we had tons of fun! we stayed in an 8 bedroom 5 bathroom beach house!
here we are getting SUPER excited about going to hawaii!
yes they rented 5 convertibles for us to use.

Okay, it looks like you had SUCH a GREAT time in Hawaii! I'm so excited for you. We've taken a picture at Matsumoto's shaved ice standing right under the sign just like you two! But those back flips off the cliff at Waimea? Wow. You are brave. So glad you had such a blast! Beautiful pictures.
I am MUCHO jealous! I love hawaii. I am so glad that you guys got to go and it looks like you had a ton of fun! I love your bows that you made at the craft night too! Way fun!
I love your pics! especially the one of your backflips!! I might just have to steal a few :) We need to get that website together so everyone can put up their pics!
Looks like you guys had a good time! I am super jealous! Scott never got anything like that from APX! And, I love your thrifty deals, those are the best!!!
Oh my it looks like you had sooo much fun! I love all your pics. You got some really good ones thanks to your nice new picture taker! And I am sure you have a ton more! I think we ALL need to go back and put my cute (because I know she is going to be) baby girl in a little swimsuit and play in the ocean! And thanks for making her those hairbows :) You are just so sweet! Love you!
oh I have so many comments about this blog...firstly it looks like your trip was amazing! you are one crazy mamma doing a back flips off that-on our trip there was a smaller rock and I was scared to even jump- i did but it took a lot of encouragement what a baby I am! So props on that... Take the picture of the shaved ice off because oh my heck that stuff is so amazing and i want some NOW!! It was so weird how good it was...addicting for sure. Well that being said I guess we all better plan a trip back together so you can help me conquer fears and we can eat some freakin' shaved ice! ps... all your thrift finds-so cute! love you~
Oh I miss the ocean already and I miss you guys already too!! Let's go back..ok...ok...and your thrift finds? really, I love them all!
Okay.....all those pictures made me sad that we aren't still there! It was such a blast! I wish we lived closer to you guys so we could hang out more often! Love you guys!....See you soon....maybe...:)...you know:)
