I'm a little behind, so I'm going to squeeze the past couple of days into this post! This is why I blog while on vacation because I have a fear of getting too far behind and not being able to catch-up! So, while Miss Joelle is sleeping right next to me, I will quickly talk about what we've been up to in Maui! On Tuesday night we ate at the ...
Travel
Haleakala
Driving up to Haleakala is one of our favorite things to do in Hawaii. This year, we just could NOT wait to show Joelle some more of God's beauty on the top of Haleakala. After about an hour of driving up the mountain, it started to rain and there were tons of cars driving DOWN the mountain, which never happens unless the visibility is ...
Turtle Encounters
We just finished our 3rd day at the beach here in Hawaii, and I can't even believe how many turtles we have seen. When we first came 2 years ago, Jared and I paid to go on a snorkeling trip where we saw ZERO turtles. It wasn't until Jared started exploring and asking that we actually found turtles right off of the local beaches that you ...

After catching breakfast at one of our favorite diners, we headed to SoHo to grab some Georgetown Cupcakes!On the Subway we decided to plug in our headphones like all of the other riders :)Made it to the yummy bakery (the ...
New York, day THREE!
Alrighty, I think I'm to Thursday now! Thursday morning we woke up around 11 again {PTL for black-out curtains!} We went into Times Square for lunch and a little shopping/perusing. Then, hopped on the Subway to go to the Bronx Zoo! I will say that it's winter, so not all of the exhibits were open, BUT there were very few ...
New York New York… Day 2!
After a pretty busy traveling day and late first-night on Tuesday, I was worn out. AND- we had only been in New York for a few hours! These next few pictures show just about how tired I was, haha!This is probably the one and ONLY time that I was walking ahead of Jared this week. That is the only reason I am even including the ...
New York Day One
We arrived in New York on a Tuesday night around 5ish p.m. and literally hit the ground running. After dropping off our bags at the hotel, we went straight to Little Italy for pizza at one of Jared's favorite places, Lombardi's. I hate this picture of me... my hair is all scraggly and flat, but Jared told me I was robbing him of his ...
My Paradise :)
Jared and I had an AH-maz-ing time in Maui, Hawaii! We are so fortunate to have traveled to several different tropical places on cruises we have previously taken, BUT this trip topped them all! Here is just a small highlight of pictures that we took throughout the trip.Here we are in Paia. We went to a restaurant called, "Mama's ...
