Big Bear Lake, CA

We have been due for a mini vacation. Bubba booked us a cabin suite in Big Bear for the weekend and we couldn't have been more excited. We were hoping there was going to be snow but that won't be til this Thursday. Either way, we were still excited to head up to the lake. Our suite was awesome and it was in walking distance of Big Bear village. We had lunch at the Peppercorn, which has awesome calamari. We walked to the lake, hung out and the Cupcake chased the ducks. It was all around a much needed relaxing weekend. Now back to reality, even though reality isn't even bad. Happy Sunday!

Hawaii part 3

Mostly our last day in Kauai.

At the airport, we went on Hawaiian airlines to Honolulu and then jumped on a United plane back to LA.

Now this is a hiking trail! I wish I had an extra day to do this hike, unfortunately its going to have to wait til my next trip.

Waiting in line to get seated for the luau.

At the Lihue airport.

Family picture. Ugh I hate how big my arms are getting. I need to get back to working out.

It started raining while at the beach so I had to bundle up the Cupcake since she wasn't going to get in the water.

Posing by the hiking trail again.

I loved my trip and I seriously want to go back...whose taking me? Anybody?

Hawaii part 2

more of the pictures continue...

We made a huge hole and placed her in it. This was the day she discovered that sand isn't so bad like she had thought.

She was such a big girl and decided she would walk all the way up to top where you can see Waimea Canyon. Such a beautiful view, it's the Grand Canyon of Hawaii.

This picture was taken before the one above so you can see her disapproval about the sand.

Us being super cheesy to take a picture. I was tired of all the posing so I told him to be stupid with me, and there you have it folks =] Oh and the sand is pretty bright red, this picture really does no justice to how beautiful it really is.

This is waimea canyon. I really hope I am spelling it right. It was an hour and a half drive up from where we were staying.

This is the yummiest ice cream I have ever had honest. If you are ever Kauai you have to check it out. Its called Tropical Paradise Ice cream. It's fairly new or I think that's what it is called. It's in Kapaa in the same shopping center where the Safeway is.

Classic. I love this picture because her face is priceless. This was at Waimea canyon. This guy was up there taking pictures with tourists like myself. He was telling stories, pretty much ask him anything and he will tell you an awesome legend.

Ignore my makeup-less, super tired face.

This was at Opekaa falls. I think that's how that is spelled. I didn't bother to look up the spelling of these places. Shoot me.

She was happy for like 2 seconds, then the screams began. We were at Poipu beach, located in the south shore.

This was at our resort. Called him speedo  man. He wore one every day.

Off to the beach.

This was at the pier at a black sand beach. I honestly don't remember the name of this one.

writings in the sand.

What I wore to the falls.

Black sand beach. I wanted to get a bed and place at the end over there and sleep there. It was awesome.

This was at Salt pond beach. I actually really liked this beach the last time I was here, now not so much. So much broken glass in the sand, grass and in the water. It's no longer safe, therefore I am not coming here anymore.

Walking back to the car. On the little pier at the black sand beach.

Hawaii part 1

Okay my stupid blog wont let me upload them in order. Oh well I will give you a little description underneath each picture.

Here I am ready to head out to the beach to go snorkeling with the whole fam bam.

I went for a run in the morning with the Bubba and this was the view. By the way this is not an edited picture, that's simply how beautiful Kauai is.

The Bubba took this shot of me facing the ocean while we rested after our run.

Cupcake in her cute bathing suit ready for the beach.

This was taken at the spouting hole. This is a beautiful beach and we spotted a couple of turtles in the water. We like coming here for the outdoor shops since their merchandise is way cheaper than what's in the actual stores.

This is me being a tourist ha! I was posing at LAX airport waiting for us to depart to Hawaii.

This is us after our run.

This was Bubba holding the Cupcake just when we landed. She was awake the whole plane ride there but once we landed she was out. Are you kidding me?!

This was taken at Anini Beach. We were having a picnic when it decided to rain pretty hard on us like 5 minutes after this picture was taken.

This was outside one of those cute little churches that are made out of volcanic rock. What I like about this church is that, it's very intimate, super small maybe seats like 30 people if that.

Putting my feet in the Hawaii sand for the first time.

The view from my room in the condo. It was amazing and I could hear the waves perfectly at night.

This is the spouting hole.

This was from the first day, we went for a walk right after we unpacked our bags.

I was going to do a post about what to pack but I got super busy so yea sorry. But this is all that was packed. Mostly Cupcakes clothes since I knew I was going to be living in my swimsuits. Oh and yes that is my bra at the corner.

I love this tree tunnel. It is so beautiful and if we are going to be near by, we made it a thing to drive through it.

This is us at the spouting hole waiting for my momma to finish doing her shopping. She loves to shop.

On the plane waiting for the plane ride to be over.
