Since moving to Oahu in July we haven't done much on the island. We spent a great deal of time adjusting to a new school, new home, new island. So, this past weekend I took the kiddos to Mt. Tantalus and Pu'u Ualaka'a Park. My husband and I used to go here quite a bit before the children came along. It only takes 10 minutes to get there and views are beautiful. It was a grey, cloudy over cast kind of a day but still amazing~Of course I couldn't head back down without getting some shots of the beautiful City of Honolulu.

My son~ always trying to look cool for the camera.

My daughter says that she looks like an orange peacock in this one!

It makes my heart melt to see them playing like this and getting along;)

This tree was huge! It reminds me of that tree in the Harry Potter movie. So, of course my son was attached to it.

I'm a sucker for those eyes.........she gets away with a lot of stuff too. She's our MANIPULATOR! Gotta watch out for this one:)

Awww! Don't you just love the city?
