23

Got up at 6:30am and went to Waimea Bay to relax (yes, before the sun came out). Hana and Nehoa came with me :) So it was cloudy and cold but it honestly is nice just being there alone, enjoying the silence and scenery. So we laid down on the towel cuddled together with the umbrella over our heads.

Once it cleared up a little, we decided to take a walk. By the time we got to the other side of the beach, it started POURING. ahhhh great! You know what's funny, though. When it's raining, the beach becomes really calm and crystal clear. The drops falling on the top just seem to turn it into ice or something. It's really pretty.

Well, the sun finally came out and I went swimmmmin! I was the only one in the water! Well...there was a turtle. And an old man doing laps. And I'm sure many fishes and nasty creatures under my feet. But I love them all.

Pretty rainbow. Gonna be a great day! It already is!

Skipping the daytime...going straight to dinner. Everyone was waiting for me at home. The girls decided it was a princess party and didn't tell me! They're so adorable I want one of them.
We danced to Jonas Brothers, Miley Cyrus and other radio Disney characters. We danced til they dropped.

My favorite (and only) present. Kihei made me a CD of his cool songs and picked me flowers. He loves me. :)
That was my fun-family-filled birthday! Happy 23!
