Our 2nd day in Hawaii was a Sunday, so we went to church! :) The meeting time started at 8am, which in planning I thought would be difficult to get up and ready in time for - but with the time difference from Arizona and our jet lag, we were all up and wide awake at 4am! So we had plenty of time to get ready - haha.
We loved getting to say Aloha multiple times during Sacrament meeting at the beginning of each talk. And there were several musical numbers sung by the ward choirs - in Samoan and Tongan - what a beautiful meeting!

After church, we drove down the road to the Laie Temple - such a gorgeous place!
Temple Visitors Center - we visited with the Sister missionaries and watched a beautiful Easter video...
That afternoon, we changed into our swim suits and headed to Sharks Cove - this place was amazing!
Ben and Emma got some great underwater pics while snorkeling...
For dinner we ate at the Turtle Bay resort...
And played on the beach after as the sun set...
And guess what?! Today was also big Jake's birthday!! He's 6!! What a lucky dude to have his birthday while in Hawaii. He opened his gifts before our trip - but on his birthday night, we had cake and sang to this sweet, fun, and energetic boy...
The snorkle images look like you were swimming in an aquarium. I have heard of the Aloha responses from Bendixion's of our stake.
