Travel Guide: Oahu, Hawaii

It's been about 2 weeks since my vacation to Oahu and already I'm dying to go back! If you didn't know, Oahu is my FAVORITE place to vacation. This was my third time back on the Island and I was really excited to take first timers, Rylie and my mom. I'm going to do a separate post on where we ate, today I just wanted to share a photo diary of our time on the Island.



Where we stayed: Hyatt Regency Waikiki (we love it there)

Visiting North Shore (Turtle Bay & Papalua Beach)

my suit & hat
Eric and I took some parental time off and ventured on a snorkeling package
(Definitely recommend! We saw sharks, turtles and lot's of fish)



top & shorts // dress // blue tank



Spent an entire day at Kailua and Lanikai
(Most beautiful beaches!)



Drove up to Ko'olina Lagoon (#4) for Rylie.
This is a man-made lagoon so the water is very calm and shallow. Perfect for kids.

Stopped by Makapuu lookout



This was a much needed vacation for all of us. Summer was so busy and I was ready to getaway and mentally check out. I may be struggling a little to check back in =)
I apologize for the lack of blog posts and social media presence lately. I made a conscious decision to be 'present' with my family instead of constantly checking my phone. It's liberating not being so attached to my phone but the drawback is I'm not always up to date on everyone's instagram and snapchat. I guess i'm still trying to find a healthy balance that works for myself and my family. Any suggestions would be welcomed!
