My dad and Leslie treated us to a Luau while we were on Oahu! We spotted a huge rainbow on our drive there.

My dad already owned this Hawaiian shirt. Leslie volunteers at the base thrift shop and came across the dress for Cassidy in the exact same pattern. They were the cutest together :)

We enjoyed the musicians as we headed into the Luau.

They had a bunch of fun activities for families to do. This one was a flower bracelet making station.

The kids got to pick “tattoos” too :)

My dad helped Ben figure out the braid for his palm leaf crown.

Andy couldn’t be convinced to dress Hawaiian festive for the occasion ;-)

The kids even got to dance!

This was our MC “cousin Jerry”

He taught us about the life giving palm tree and how it influenced their culture. Then he showed us how one is traditionally climbed.

Then it was time for dinner!

Andy was first to try the seaweed, mmm.

Leslie warned us that the kids might not like what was served, so here’s Cassidy eating the PBJ we packed for her! Both kids ate the pineapple, but Ben actually tried everything on his plate, I was so proud of him.

After dinner we sat back to enjoy the show!

This guy even proposed to his girlfriend in the middle of it. Ben was cute, he thought they were getting married on stage.

Sleepy Cass! The Luau was such a neat outing, everyone really enjoyed it!
