The mountains and the sea part 1

When the kids were all little, we asked them what they wanted in a place to live.  Our oldest daughter, who was around five at the time, said she wanted to live by the mountains and the sea.  So glad we could grant her wish.

Here's one of our favorite places to visit:

Ho'omaluhia Botanical Gardens. 

My baby taking a break from fishing.

We've spent a lot of time here.  The kids line the lake on Saturdays for catch and release fishing.  Its wonderful to bring a picnic and just spend time enjoying the peace of this place.  We love it!
