Just returned home from a weekend in Hawaii attending a family wedding. Oh what a great time we had. Jennifer and her husband Dave were also there and we just had a great relaxing time. The wedding happen to be our favorite hotel that we usually stay at while visiting the island. The Ihilani Resort. Robert and I have been staying there with the kids for the past 10+ years and have always enjoyed it. Its on the leeward side of the island just past Kapolei. Its a JW Marriott Resort which are always my favorites.
We had the wedding Saturday night with over 750 guest. Reports are that this was the largest wedding to be held at this hotel. I can't even begin to imagine the cost. It was great to see family and to meet cousins we had never met before. Auntie Colleen was there with her grand daughter. I hadn't seen Auntie Collen in years. She was so sweet and apologized for not making it to moms funeral. She's been battling a series of illnesses and we were told she was going back into the hospital for yet another surgery on Monday. She was very disappointments that we would not be staying longer and could meet up with Shirley and her other kids living there on the island.
During the day Robert and I spent all our afternoons soaking up the sun laying around in the lagoon. It was so relaxing and great to be in the sun just doing nothing but enjoying the company. No hustle no bustle. Robert and Dave always had our food schedule ready for us. We ate local food daily and we wouldn't have had it any other way. Robert was just thrilled to have an eating partner and Dave filled the bill perfectly. LOL
