God's beautiful work is everywhere, slow down and enjoy it!
For some reason my thoughts keep going back to our family trip to Hawaii last January. I really miss Hawaii. Things are different there. It's hard to describe, but the way you look at things is different while you are there. The songs sound prettier... the foliage is beautiful... and the memories seem sweeter somehow. I can't wait until we can go back. I've been thinking that I would like Aaron and I to renew our vows someday in Hawaii. We'll see if that ever happens, but I can always dream it in my head. I don't think anyone has seen our pics of Hawaii, so I thought I would attach some. Oh, by the way, if you want to feel a little of the magic of Hawaii, look up the song "Somewhere over the Rainbow" by Israel "IZ" Kamakawiwo`ole . It's on YouTube. Check it out! It's one of my favorites. I also love "What a Wonderful World" by Louis Armstrong. Beautiful.
Keep in mind I was 3 months pregnant here with little Aaron, so I wasn't looking my best! haha
Mom and Dad... the only reason we were able to go to Hawaii. Thanks guys!
Our first Luau ever! What a blast watching the performances and eating the traditional food. Aaron bought me my leis, and had to plant one on me as part of the tradition. Woohoo! 
My obsession with sea turtles began here. Aaron also surprised me with a sea turtle neckle in white gold. It's one of my prized pocessions.
This picture was taken while we were on the USS Arizona Memorial in Pearl Harbor. Our trip there really touched Aaron and I. While inside the museum, Aaron teared up a couple of times. It moved me also. It makes you appreciate the men that gave their lives for us all the more.
I can't wait until we can return! I'll keep all the memories of those times in my heart forever.
