Our Maui vacation

We went to Maui from July 30th to August 6th with my family. We had the most incredible time, though it was a much different tropical vacation with 15 month old twins to keep us busy. The five hour plane ride going there was a challenge especially with Clayton who slept for only about 30 minutes despite being exhausted. Chloe did really well on the way. They switched roles on the way back, but overall did so much better! Our days were pretty much the same each day. We woke up, went on a gorgeous morning walk on the path, played outside then the babies napped. After nap and lunch we went out to the pool and beach for the next four hours or so. They LOVED the pool, especially splashing the water and going for rides in their floaties. Chloe LOVED the sand and even enjoyed the ocean. Clayton tolerated the sand, but was not a fan of the ocean. Ryan and I took turns staying up in the room during nap time, so that each day we had some quiet sun time. We then napped again and went out to a delicious dinner at one of the many restaurants on Maui. Clayton and Chloe were well behaved at most every dinner, which made the meal that much better. Papa Jim, Nonnie, Uncle KyKy, and Aunt LiLi were so amazing with Clayton and Chloe and so generous with giving up their relaxation time to entertain toddlers and give us a break every now and then. Beautiful memories were created with our perfect children that we are so proud of and amazed by each and every day.
