This is one of our favorite destinations as a family.  We feel fortunate that it is only a 6 minute drive up the road.  The kids ask to come here often and walk around the grounds.  It is peaceful and uplifting- we love it!  This picture looks like a postcard to me (I took it) except for our friends that happen to be in this photo!  Let's give a shout out to the Moore family!

The kids love to sit and listen to the short presentation and count how many times they say the word "LoVe."

Such special children... :)

Ryan wants to walk ALL the way around so he's carrying the entire stroller up the steps to see the top of the fountains!

RIVER!

Yours truly ;)  Hunter took this pic and was very proud of himself!

On a random note, the "boat" you see in the background is the infamous "Iosepa" which is a traditional Hawaiian sailing vessel that is taken out on open water only about once a year.  It's a really neat program they have at BYU-H where only a certain number of students get to sail it.  It's in the Hawaiian Studies program and they under-go extensive training; physical, mental, and spiritual to be able to be chosen for the journey which takes about a month to complete.  It is launched from Hukilau Beach.  So for one FHE in May we went to see it before they set sail!
