Hawaii Day 6- Our Last Day

Day 6 was our last day in Hawaii
(For some reason, blogger wont let me post anymore photos on this post, so you only get a few for this one!)
We were so sad that our trip was coming to an end. It felt like the fastest week of our lives!
After breakfast we checked out of our rooms and went to the beach, which Jack didn't like. He and I did go into the water though, so that he could say some day that he had done that!
We then spent the rest of the day in our cabana (I think that it what it was called), resting, soaking up the rays (I totally got burnt on the last day), and soaked up ever last bit of Hawaii that we could.
What a great trip this was!

One of my friends! I was so excited for her to meet Jack and get to hold him.
BTW, this is my "HOT" suit I got that I talked about before I left. Isn't it cute!?!?


Hanging by the pool!


Me with some of my "Founders" friends! We've been on every trip together and LOVE eachother very much!

Hawaii-Day 5

Day 5 in Hawaii was so relaxing and so fun.
After breakfast I went to the Spa Without Walls and enjoyed a 2 hour treatment!
After the spa we went shopping and bought tons of fun jewelry, clothes, and more souvenirs! After shopping I took a NAP! You heard me right, something I haven't had in 4 months! My mom and Jack went shopping again and left me alone to nap in our room. It was the best nap I've ever had!
We then had a fun Luau that night!
Hawaii is beautiful!


Jack got to cruise around in his new umbrella stroller. I wanted to get a new one that was going to do well on a big trip and be easy to travel with. Everyone recommended Maclaren, and I know why. It was the best stroller I've used (sadly, I've used and tried many in my 5 years of motherhood)! Totally recommend this stroller, and so worth the price!


Where my amazing two hour massage took place. The waterfall huts! It was so relaxing gettting to lay and be pampered with the sounds of waterfalls around me. BESTEST thing ever!


I'm the luckiest girl in the world. I LOVE you Jack!

My Mom and Me! What a fun night to end our amazing trip!

Jack got to try his first taste of sugar in Hawaii. He may or may not have actually sucked any up the straw, but he sure did try like heck!





Hawaii-Day 4

Day 4-
Today we had our "excursions" day. We chose to go on the Volcano Tour. It was an all day event where we toured the island, and visited the one active Volcano still on the Big Island. It was a very very long day on a bus, but we got to see some beautiful and amazing things! Jack was an awesome traveller. Didn't mind the long ride on my lap, and everyone on the bus loved seeing and being with him all day.
My favorite part was visiting the Mauna Loa factory! We bought some fun souvenirs, ate some yummy ice-cream, and sampled some fun flavors of macadamia nuts!
That night for dinner I went to dinner with some of my Scentsy group and some of my other Scentsy friends that I've been lucky enough to meet through these Scentsy incentive trips!
GOOD TIMES!





Hawaii- Day 3

Day three in Hawaii was perfect...of course!
We enjoyed our day, went to the pool, relaxed, shopped, and had the time of our lives!
Dinner was a "Scent"sational dinner put on by Scentsy. Before dinner we were all to go get a "group" photo of us all in matching "Scentsy" Hawaiian shirts Scentsy gave us all. The shirts actually said "Scentsy". They were totally made just for us! In my opinion the shirts were totally ugly on though. CUTE off, UGLY on! I hate big shirts, I feel like a dork in them.
The great part about today was that I met another girl in my Scentsy group, Danelle! She was behind me in line at dinner, and saw my cute baby Jack and then said "Hey, I think you're my Director!" I was totally embarrassed that I didn't know she had made the trip. But she was so cool and it was great being able to meet her and eat together that night.
Day 3 was awesome! LOVE HAWAII!

Hawaii- Day 2

Day 2:
Getting ready in Hawaii was so fun, especially when we would find Jack under the bed! He has started to scoot himself all around now, so where he ends up you never know!
We had our official "Welcome" breakfast with everyone that earned the trip. Breakfast was amazing! The fresh fruit was to die for!
We then walked around the resort some, and took pictures, and enjoyed the perfect weather of 80-85 degrees!
I don't remember what we ate for lunch this day, but I do know I discovered Chocolate, Toffee covered Macadamia nuts, and ate a huge bag full on our 2nd day...they were delicious!
After lunch I went on a helicopter ride. It was amazing! I got to sit up front next to the pilot. I thought this was the best seat, (there was 4 other people in the back)! The pilot was this cute little guy, he was so nice! So nice in fact that during our flight he even let me take over the controls and fly us all around the island. It was so cool being in control of such a huge machine.....Just Kidding! THAT would be scary, and I'm sure I wouldn't be here to tell ya about it! My first helicopter ride was awesome, except that I did get a little sick during the last 10 minutes of the tour. So I was very happy when we finally landed. It was so awesome seeing the island from the air. It was beautiful, of course!
That night Scentsy held the Hang 10 Beach Party! It was fun going in our swim gear and partying it up on the beach! The food was yummy, and the company was even better!
Jack was now becoming everyone's favorite little person to see. Everyone always commented on how cute he was and how well behaved he was. Someone even said he looks just like me! :)
We had such a fun 2nd day in Hawaii!












Scentsy Incentive Trip HAWAII 2010- Day 1

Because I am SOOO behind on everything since returning home from my Va-Kay, you're going to get a detailed account of each day we spent in Hawaii, a day at a time. For now, enjoy our Day 1!

Our week in Hawaii was an absolute blast! We were treated like Queens (and some Kings), just like Scentsy always does!
This year for my Scentsy trip I was lucky enough to take my mom with me. I was so excited to show her how great these trips are, and to have the chance to spoil her! I also got to take Jack since he can't live longer than 4-5 hours without me! I felt pretty lucky to be bringing two of the most important people with me on this trip!
Here is the account of our adventure:
Day 1:
We arrived in Kona, Hawaii on Monday early evening. We were greeted first at the airport with lei's and lots of ALOHA's! At the airport our luggage was taken from us and we were told that it would be waiting for us in our rooms at our resort. We were then shuttled from the airport to the Fairmont Resort. When we got off the buses at The Fairmont we were given more Lei's, and Jack was given a cute little Fairmont frog! It was so cute and thoughtful of them to know baby Jack was going to be coming and would need a little toy!
Once inside the resort we headed to the "Scentsy Lounge" where we checked into our rooms, were given our gift bags full of Scentsy swag, our Scentsy credit cards filled with spending money, and viewed the options for activities and spa treatments that we might be intersted in. There waiting for us was also a snack table, just in case we were in need of something salty or sweet!
We then headed to our rooms and got to check out the amazing room we were going to spend the next five days in. It of course had the most amazing view, BEST beds, and the biggest bathroom I've seen! It was beautiful! Back to the beds...seriously who makes these beds? And the Pillows? I could sleep forever in this bed! We unpacked our goods and headed out the door to explore the resort and to find some dinner.
The resort of course was amazing, breath taking and perfect! All the restaurants we an hour wait, so we decided to do some more walking and exploring. We then saw my BBFF (Best Braodmore Friend Forever) Casie and her husband Doug, and they told us that up in the Scentsy Lounge there was a ton of food and snacks to eat. So we headed up there and enjoyed some yummy food and got to see more of my Scentsy friends and meet some of my Scentsy team members that I hadn't ever met before. It was a long night, sitting and talking, eating and having a great time.
Our first day on the island was awesome! Here are some pictures of our first day!
