Back from Hawaii

Hello all, I'm back from Hawaii. Hope you had a fabulous Thanksgiving. I spent mine on beach with my family. I had planned on blogging while I was away but once I got there I just couldn't bear to open my computer. I think I needed some r & r. The picture above is a view from our beach. We stayed on Oahu in the Marriott at Ko Olina. My family has stayed there before but lots had changed since the last time we visited, like the new Disney hotel Aulani that just opened next door. It was amazing and worth a post all of it's own.
My little Winston loved digging in the sand and playing on the beach. We spent most of our time doing that, but we did make some visits to Pearl Harbor, the North Shore, and Honolulu.

Here we are heading to the beach and taking half of our hotel room with us on the stroller.
My Husband Dan with our little guy, Elliott. Dan doesn't make many appearances here on the blog but he should be considered VP of Caitlin Creer Interiors. Whenever people ask me how I run my business with two small kids, my immediate answer is always that I have a really supportive husband who makes a lot of what I do possible.
And now we are back and I'm facing a mountain full of Laundry. Ick.

I'll be announcing the winner of the Lewis & Sheron giveaway tomorrow. Stay tuned.

  1. It sounds (and looks) like you had a beautiful trip!! Unplugging and changing your scenery for awhile definately helps refresh and inspire. There is nothing like having a supportive husband to help you pursue your dreams! I have enjoyed reading your blog for some time now and I have been especially inspired by your work with tiek built homes. You have fabulous taste and you are definately an inspiration for me with a new design business I am trying to grow.

  2. Wow! We just got back from Hawaii too and stayed at the Marriott Ko Olina Beach Club:). Had I known one of my favorite interior designers was staying nearby, I would have come by to say hello! Hope you had a great time, I loved every minute of our trip, such a peaceful happy place.

  3. What beautiful pictures...you are a beautiful family. So nice to meet the "VP of operations" lol and your two little assistants are the cutest!! Isn't Hawaii amazing? I lived there for almost 6 years! I miss it so much and we try to go for vacation once every 2 or 3 years...it is the epitome of paradise. You all look so well rested!! Glad you had fun.
