Sun-Kissed (w/pictures)

I hope you always have a shell in your pocket... and sand in your shoes.

We spent the hot weekend enjoying the beach at Hood Canal. We had a great time kayaking, floating, barbequing, eating s'mores, and feeding seagulls. :)

Off to the Lake

We arrived home from Maui and after a good night's sleep we were off to Lake Chelan with Greg's family. We had a great time swimming and relaxing by the lake, going into town for lunch and shopping, wine tasting, and enjoying yummy dinners.

So You Think You Can Hula?

Aloha: Alo means to share in the present moment. Oha is joy. Ha is life energy. Therefore, Aloha translates to meaning “joyfully sharing life.”

Day 6: We spent the morning snorkeling, enjoyed a barbeque lunch, and went to the Old Lahaina Luau
