Keeping up with Ted, Jenny, and the girls

Maui

The family and I went on a week long vacation this month to Maui. Jenny’s cousin Tony was getting married there so we decided to make a vacation out of it. We had my mom come along, which was a lot of fun and also gave Jenny and I some time to explore the island on our own. We did a lot of fun stuff. Our condo was right on the beach in Kaanapali. The girls loved swimming in the pool and playing in the sand.

The wedding was on Wednesday and it was a really great ceremony and reception. Tony and Sarah found a great location right on the beach, which, oddly, is extremely rare in Maui. They included Elise as the flower girl. She was so excited and hit it off well with the ring bearer.

While Jenny and I were exploring we headed up through Kapalua for lunch at the Ritz and up to the North coast, which was impressively remote and rugged. On another day we went to see the Iao Needle and to hike around a bit.

The highlight of the trip for me was the day-long diving/snorkeling trip we took out to the Molokini Crater. It was my first open-water dive and it was amazing. We went with Trilogy Excursions and they took great care of us. The dive instructor was great and they provided us with a full day of really good food and drinks.
