So, I have the BEST HUBBY ever! For Valentine's day Adam decided to surprise me with a trip to Kauai. He woke me up at 4:26am and said that I needed to hurry and get ready so that we wouldn't miss the sunrise. He had everything ready for me including tennis shoes, which he led me to believe that we were going on a hike to watch the sunrise.
Well, after 45 minutes in the car and a turn onto the H1 freeway- I said, "Where are we going? We only go this way if we are going to Aloha Stadium or to the Airport!" He then pulled out a hand made Valentine's Card with a poem inside that indicated that we were on our way to Kauai!!! I was super excited...Kauai was the only island we hadn't been to and we both really wanted to go before we pack up to leave Hawaii in April, but I honestly didn't think that we would get to go. However, we DID...and it was...well, AMAZING!!!
Thanks Adam! I love you!
Here are just some of the MANY highlights and pictures from our GREAT Kauai trip...
My TWO Valentines!!! What a cute picture taken at sunset!
There was a seal sun-bathing on the beach!!!
Another cute one!
A "Blow Hole" Called "Spouting Horn"
Lighthouse
Inside of the dry cave. This was a HUGE cave in the mountain with a beautiful beach in front of it.
One of the MANY pictures that Adam took at Sunset.
Kissy, Kissy!
This is one of Anniston's favorite things to do with Daddy! We just happened to snap a great picture during the sunset!
This was taken on our Waimea Canyon Drive. We thought that the red dirt with the water flowing over it was pretty neat!
Beautiful Landscape!
Our Cute little Family at the top of Waimea Canyon (AKA - Grand Canyon of the Pacific) - which is an amazing sight.
Another Canyon Pic!
Glass Sand Beach! I'm not sure if you can tell, but the so-called sand on this beach is really GLASS - all different colors of glass that have been smoothed over by the water. It was pretty awesome!
Here's Adam and Anniston finding pretty sand glass to add to our collection of Hawaii sand!!!
Anniston Kalia in her cute Valentine's dress!
A pretty picture on our drive around the island!
This is just one of the few different waterfalls that we were able to see in Kauai!
Of all the beautiful things of this "Garden Island"...what was Anniston's favorite? The ROOSTER!!! Go figure! There are chickens everyone here...Adam now thinks the rooster needs to be the state bird!

Aye Yah! Ooh what a little paradise you are living down there. Yep, i'm going to say it... I"M JEALOUS!
Stace! How is it possible that I didn't know you had a baby-and a cute one too! Congrats. We need to catch up sometime.
I'm jealous Stacey!!! Looks like you had a blast! I keep hinting to Bret that our pictures suck. Hopefully one day I'll get a nice one ;-) Super cute pictures!!
Just dropping by... I heard through the grape vine that Adam had some sort of scheme worked up. What a great surprise?! You took beautiful pics!
Hello Cottle Family: Remember me from Primary in the 5th Ward. Just seems like yesterday when you left for Haiwaii. Darling little girl you've added to your family. I'm still jealous of you living in paradise. Hope all is well. We love having Scott and Mattie in our ward with cute Jonah. Looks like you are doing well. I love the blog world, it's fun to find people and catch up on their lives. It's not stalking, right?
Hi Stacy,
