Hawaii Pictures

Mike and I had such a great time while in Kaua'i! Our time there went by so quick and I can't wait to go back (with the girls) for another visit. By the time we left I felt very comfortable navigating the island, a benefit to being on a smaller island. We tried to fit in as much as possible without feeling like we were doing too much, after all it was vacation! It was so BEAUTIFUL there, absolutely breathtaking!! I wish I had a better camera with me, but I still managed to get some great shots...I hope you enjoy them.

10 Years

WOW! 10 years...I remember when we were newlyweds thinking about our 10th wedding anniversary and thinking how far away it was; looking back on it now, those 10 years have gone by really fast (as does everything else when you get older *sigh*). I have always had the mindset that marriage doesn't just happen, it is something that you MUST work at, and our marriage isn't any different. We have had many ups and downs with MANY challenges along the way, but no matter the challenge, Mike and I knew that divorce was NEVER an option! We committed to each other, for the rest of our lives, that we would continue to work on our marriage forever. I'm proud to say that we have now been married for 10 years, because when you really think about it, we are a success story and we have my parents (married for 35 years this October) and Mike's parents (married for 45 years this November) to thank for being role models for us. Many of my friends have gone through divorce and when I look at why they divorced, it's because one of them was 'done'. How can you just walk away, how can you be 'done'? A commitment was made...and to walk away without even trying to 'make things work' is just mind blowing to me. So I applaud ALL the couples who have made a commitment and are choosing to 'work' on their marriage...congratulations!


To celebrate our 10th anniversary, Mike and I are in Kaua'i and we're having so much fun. The last couple of days we have been taking it easy, exploring the beaches and the island, and starting today we have some adventures planned that we are both really looking forward to! Be on the lookout for a post all about our trip :)

HAPPY 10th ANNIVERSARY MIKE!! I LOVE YOU BEYOND WORDS!!!
