Aloha Hawaii

Hawaii is such a beautiful vacation spot and we were excited to stay at the Aulani Disney Resort in Ko'Olina, Oahu.  It's a brand new posh resort that opened a few months ago sprinkled with a little bit of Disney.  The resort grounds were amazing with a lazy river where you can float down a stream in your inner tub which Lucas loved, various pools, snorkeling pool with tropical fish, sting ray habitat and a kids club (which Lucas was a bit young for but he loved the enourmous ipad device and the movie theatre).  We spent a lot of time in the water and on the beach.    When we were in the hotel room, he referred to "hawaii" as the resort downstairs.  "I want to go to Hawaii".  Oh and we spotted a bunch of celebrities at the hotel since they were filming Kelly Live and sat in the audience.  All her guests were staying there so we kept running into random celebs, like Kelly Ripa and her husband, Mathew Morrison, Daniel Dae Kim, Jorge (Hugo from Lost), Carson Kressley. 

The last part of the trip we attended Helena and Kevin's wedding at the Halekulani Hotel in Waikiki, and it was such a beautiful and intimate wedding.  Lucas at one point was break dancing and spinning for the guests during cocktail hour. What a ham!  We are missing Hawaii already!
