The Murphy's are here!

Cassie and Andrew finally arrived on Tuesday!!
Since then we have been having a blast.

Wednesday we hung out at a couple of beaches and saw the largest waves any of us had ever seen.
The boys played in the surf, Cassie took pictures and I freaked out about the danger they boys were putting themselves in.

This is the first beach we went to (Kane'ohe Bay or K-bay or the Marine Corps Base)

The boys thought they would be able to boogie board.
Ha. This is the most action the boogie boards saw.
















Next we stopped by to see the Chinaman's Hat.























The third beach we stopped at the boys did get to boogie board but as Cassie and I were walking around we saw several Portuguese Man-of-War washed up on the beach so we decided to move on.
I don't know why we didn't take a picture, I guess we were too freaked out by them.

The last beach was the real fun.
The waves were huge (although they are nothing compared to the waves that will be coming in).




The size of the waves did not stop Ryan from playing.


Andrew and I were watching.
Apparently, we were on two different pages though.
I was afraid for Ryan's life and Andrew was deciding to join him.


Here is Andrew after his decision to put his life in jeopardy.
Notice he has better judgement that Ryan (laying in the surf).

Andrew flees; Ryan is lost at sea.

Then the sun set and we headed home.























Thursday night we went to see the Cirque Du Soleil show Allegria.

(Sorry no cameras allowed, but here is a picture of Cassie and I beforehand enjoy tasty Mai Tais!)



















Yesterday we went on a snorkel trip to see sea turtles and dolphins.
Here are some highlight photos.



















We have a lot more in store, so stay tuned for pictures!

Birthday girl.

Today is my Janastys birthday.
This is her last year to be a twenty-something.
(I am not sure she enjoys that factoid).
In order to celebrate her birth, I will now post some of my fav memories.
