On Saturday I had a rare opportunity to just lounge on the couch and scroll through my Facebook newsfeed. There were a lot of rainbows profile pictures thanks to the Supreme Court ruling in favor of same-sex marriages nationwide. But through the light of the rainbows I stumbled upon an article that really made me stop Continue reading
On Thursday I saw a video on Buzzfeed Blue for Bacon-Wrapped Pesto Chicken. Of course I immediately shared it on Facebook with the Hubster with the caption “Brian – We need to make this! This weekend!” To which hey replied, “Okay!” Brian is a huge bacon lover so I wasn’t surprised by his response but Continue reading
UPDATE: After posting this numerous friends educated me on who Abby Wombach is. I’m so glad they did. About a week later I even saw a documentary on her and discovered how truly remarkable she is. I’m glad I posted this because I learned a lot. See, sharing your ignorance helps you to learn. Let Continue reading
Day 7. Our last day. All of our hearts are heavy. The kids are begging us not to make them leave Hawai’i even though they didn’t want to come in the first place. They fell in love. And, well, how could you not? Of course, we spent our last few hours at the resort pool. Continue reading
Ah day six. I can’t believe I’m typing a day six post already. Time sure flies when you’re on vacation. Day six was a day of relaxation. For me, it was mostly because my ankle needed a rest. Although it was much less swollen when I woke up it was still very, very sore. So, Continue reading
Day 5 started out a little lazy – morning coffee on the patio with the family waiting for our little kitty cat friend to stop by for a visit. Unfortunately, our resort gardeners came by instead.

After an adventurous day yesterday and a late night out (late for us, anyways) getting up early was not what I had in mind. And by early, I mean 8:00 AM. Hey, don’t judge, I’m on vacation! But, we had to get up early because we signed up for a glass bottom boat tour that Continue reading
After a couple of days of lounging around the pool we decided that we were ready to do something different. It was time to find our sense of adventure and take a road trip around the island – and today was the day to do it. Since today was the day the cleaning crew arrived Continue reading
Day 2 in Hawai’i was our most relaxing day yet. Today’s plan had absolutely nothing on the agenda. Love that! The kids woke up at about 6:15 AM and I awoke shortly after. We hung out on the patio for about an hour. We had our regular morning visit from the neighborhood cat too. Ethan Continue reading
Our second day in Hawai’i was actually our first full day in Hawai’i. The kids, of course, woke up bright and early – I’m talking 6:30 AM early. Actually, now that I think about it, considering we are on Hawai’ian time, they got up at the same time that they do at home. What I Continue reading
