Our Last Day -- Bishop Museum

On January 2nd we packed up all our stuff, and said goodbye to our "Hawaii home."  We had a lot of time to kill before we had to be at the airport, so we met up with Diane, Keoni, Danny, and Diane's mom at the Bishop Museum.  The kids had a blast playing together.  

Last breakfast in Hawaii

Beautiful butterflies
The Bishop Museum was really four different museums on one property.  We had the science museum, a planetarium, art museum, History museum, and beautiful grounds with a cool large bug exhibit.  It was all pretty cool.



This picture is too cute.  When we came home Tralee announced that she's going to marry Keoni.

Can you spot the wee ones?

Our flights home were kind of brutal.  We left Hawaii at 11:00pm, arrived in Las Vegas at 6:00am.  Left Vegas 9:00am.  Arrived in Seattle at 11:00.  Left Seattle at I-can't-remember-what-time and landed at our final destination around 3:00pm.  The airline lost one of our bags, but we made it home. . . with snow on the ground and everything!  We definitely weren't in Hawaii anymore.  Boo.

We stopped and played in the snow for a minute on our way home.  Notice how Tralee is in short sleeved pants and shirts?  Yeah.  We didn't really have any "winter" clothes with us.


Our bag showed up a few hours later.  Phew!
