Surfing

We have spent the last 3 Saturday mornings learning how to surf! We still have a long ways to go to be able to say we are "surfers", but we are having a lot of fun.


Lucy the surfer girl.


Noah and Grace headed out to catch some waves.


Grace almost getting up. She did stand up later, I just didn't get a picture of it!




Lucy the surfer girl. These waves were small, and just the perfect size for her!


Noah, looking for the perfect wave.


Noah is getting pretty good.


We have been going to the beach at 6:30 in the morning to beat the crowds. The sun is just coming up and it is the perfect way to start the day. Since Jake is still a little small for surfing (although he would disagree with that) he spends the first hour or so watching the sunrise and eating his breakfast.


As the kids get tired from surfing, Jake is ready to play with them in the sand! They are content while Noah and I stay out and surf as long as possible.

It looks like you guys are having so much fun in Hawaii! I wish we could all be there too! The kids's Halloween costumes are so cute. I wish we could have got a picture of Brooklyn and Jake side by side! Love you guys!

Has anybody told you lately that you are the coolest mom EVER? Well, you are! An inspiration to all of us boring moms out there who merely wake our kids up at 6 to get ready for boring old school. Love that you're having fun and living it up in Hawaii while you're there. A
