Preparing for Vacation

So my dad and I are going on vacation together this year!! And we are going to HAWAII!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HOW exciting!? We are going to the island of Kauai, which I have been to before. I'm SOOO very excited to have my dad go with me, as he has ALWAYS wanted to go somewhere tropical! We caught the flights on sale for SUPER cheap and couldn't pass the trip up.

So I've been trying to prepare for our trip by sort-of semi-scheduling our time to make sure we get to do the things we want to do. The only things we decided to do were go to a Luau and take a helicopter ride. So last week I scheduled our Luau with Smith's Garden Luau .



and yesteday I booked our Helicopter tour with Mauna Loa Helicopter Tours!



Is this not GORGEOUS?! I'm so excited that I'm seriously beside myself! We are going on a 'doors-off' ride so I can't wait to share the pictures with you!!

I can't wait to go on vacation, but I surely do NOT want to wish the summer away. Summer is my FAVORITE time of the year and I wish it was summer all year long! :(  Oh well.....at least I have an awesome vacation to look forward!
