Aloha!



Hawaii was amazingly beautiful! We had such a wonderful time and I definitely want to go back. It was amazing to see the variations in the landscape as we drove around the Big Island and then Oahu. The above picture is from the North Shore which is so beautiful, I want to go back and spend a couple of days just there! Pearl Harbor and the USS Arizona Memorial was very touching. It is important to remember those who gave their lives in service and protection of this country. Visiting these places to pay our respect and to remember what America was built upon is so important. Too often we forget as we go through our daily lives that we allow little things to happen that take us further and further away from the founding principles of the United States.


Spending time with my parents was wonderful, since I will be moving shortly. We never know where life is going to take us and we need to cherish the time that we spend with loved ones, no matter how short a time we spend with them.


If you ever get a chance to visit Hawaii, take it! I think you'll really enjoy it!


Love you all!
