When Josh’s parents were here a few weeks ago we went ziplining on Kualoa Ranch. It was a beautiful day and we had a great time!

Exploring Kaneohe Bay
Josh’s parents were in town last week so we decided to explore Kaneohe Bay one day and visit the sandbar. After looking at it for the past 8 months, we decided it was time to actually see what it was all about. Josh and I rented paddle boards and his parents kayaked. It was the perfect day and just stunning!

Waimano Falls
One of Krista’s bucket list items was to jump off a waterfall while in Hawaii. We decided to hike to Waimano Falls to accomplish that. This was a first for me (even though I didn’t jump). It was a great hike and I was so happy to try something new!
Found a friend.
Almost to the falls!
Not really flowing, but plenty of people jumping.
The jump!
Don’s jump!
Celebration!

Krista & Don Visit Hawaii
A few weeks ago, my cousin Krista and her husband Don came to visit. We went on many hikes, ate a ton of food and caught a sunrise. Highlights below!

Waʻahila Ridge
Last weekend Josh and I hiked Wa’ahila Ridge for the first time. It was a windy, rainy day but we lucked out and only got sprinkled on at times. The view was a bit hazy but still a great hike.

Hanauma Bay Ridge Wind & Waves
My friend Lindsay and her fiancé Channa came to visit last month. We did a variety of fun things, but the most memorable was our hike. It was an insanely windy day but we persevered and were rewarded with quite a show by the rock bridge. The waves were huge and so powerful. The videos below don’t even capture it!
Mt. Olomana
A few weekends ago, Josh and I hiked the first peak of three peaks. For me, this was the second time hiking it. It was a beautiful day, not windy and clear enough to see Maui, Lanai and Molokai. Such a great hike!

Byodo-In Temple
While my mom was visiting, we decided to visit the Byodo-In Temple. It was absolutely beautiful and we felt like we were in another country. My favorite were the black swans!

Love bamboo up close.
So pretty.
Happy 2017!
Just like we started last year, we began 2017 with a hike. We forced my mom to do Koko Head (and she lived!). It was an incredibly clear day so we were able to see Molokai and whales. The perfect way to set the tone for the year!
Made it to the top. What a view!

Love this.
