Aloha!


My family and I just returned from a delightful trip to Hawaii! I never dared to dream that I'd get to visit our 50th state, but when the opportunity arose, we blissfully accepted it as a precious gift.

We were able to witness and support one of our very best friends in his chance-of-a-lifetime spot in the IRONMAN World Championship triathlon, piggy-backing on his and his family's adventure in Kona on the Big Island. And though I would be mistaken to use the word "relaxing" to describe our days there, it was definitely refreshing and a truly wonderful time for our family of five to spend together and with some of our dearest of friends.

I hope to share more specific stories in the days to come, but for now I am trying to remind myself that I love Fall and embrace the changing season, when in fact I'd prefer to still be basking in the warmth of that tropical paradise...
