Catching Up!

So I haven't posted anything in a while and wanted to catch everyone up on some fun things we have been doing...


Last Thursday we went on a night hike. We started at the top of a ridge and hiked down to the ocean. We hiked though tress and followed this skinny little trail. As we got closer to the ocean we had to use ropes to scale down the side of the rocks and the cliff. It was so awesome! By the time we got to the  bottom it was dark and we were surrounded by the ocean! We kept on walking and came to a sea cave. Of course all the guys wanted to go into water! I had no interest in going in the dark ocean water, and despite my concerns of a shark attack or being swept out to sea Jeremy still insisted on following the rest of the guys into the water. The waves and current were also huge. As the guys got into the water and swam towards the cave all we could see where their flashlights! At this point me and my friend Amber realized that the surf was raising and dropping the guys about four to five feet! So crazy!


 After the water, we watched the moon rise and then began our ascent back up the ridge. As we were climbing / walking up the ridge we saw a MOON BOW! It was the most incredible thing I had ever seen at night. We saw it go from one valley to the next and it was all white! Instead of being lit up by the sun and having tons of colors, this bow was lit by the moon and completely white! 

We ended the night at Paia Fish Market for some yummy fish and fries!!! 

Our next adventure was paddle boarding. Jeremy and I paddled boarded for literally four hours! It was so incredible! As we boarded there were several sea turtles all around us! Paddle boarding is by far our favorite thing to do! We ended that day by watching the Rangers game and enjoying fries and soda! 

Yesterday, we went to a pumpkin patch! It was upcountry and cool. We really enjoying driving up into the mountains because it is about 15 degrees cooler than Kihei. So it made it feel like fall! We got four pumpkins and are excited to decorate them! Hope you enjoy the pictures!!!

Look behind the pumpkins!!! You can see the mountains and the ocean. 

Our family pumpkins!
