At the beginning of this month, Andrew and I got to be with his family in HAWAII!!!
We had so much stinkin fun!
We did the typical tourist things + relaxation which is just what we needed after a stressful semester of school.
And we didn't look much at our phones so it was a break from reality.
AND... Andrew and I got to spend an entire week together 24/7! Pure bliss I tell you!
We arrived in Hawaii and all 7 of us- with all of our luggage, carry ons, and purses, piled into the van.
We needed food for the week and Costco was closing so on our way to our condo we stopped at Costco and bought groceries.
Somehow we managed to fit our grocery haul into the van too which took some creativity, but we did it!
When we finally arrived at our condo we were amazed by the view!
And the place we were staying was less crowded than the other places along the way. It was perfect.
Once we got all settled into our condo we walked around the beach path that surrounded the area.

From that moment we were already in love with Hawaii!
The next day was Sunday. We started off our morning with church and then we drove around the island which I really
loved seeing all the beauty of the area. There are so many places I want to go back to and explore.
One day it will happen!
We were also able to stop by the temple. I love visiting temples when we travel places, even just the grounds.
There is such a special spirit there and it just feels like a piece of home.
Another stop that we made was the Punchbowl Cemetery. It is formed from an extinct volcano and it was really neat to see.
None of the pictures we have do it justice. I guess it's a see it in person experience.
The cemetery is up on a hill and driving up there was an amazing view. That is Honolulu behind us, and this was
my favorite part about Punchbowl Cemetery. We were eye level with the buildings instead of looking
up or down on them. The beauty of Hawaii kept amazing me, over and over again for the entire week! 😍
More pictures and hopefully a video to come 🤞
And how is it possible that we have 2 more weeks of school left?!
It does not feel like it's almost done. Maybe because the weather is so rainy and it is not feeling anywhere close to summer at all.
I mean, I've been wearing long sleeves and a jacket to work!
Can I go back to Hawaii?
Hopefully Utah weather will begin to act like summer! Or spring. Anything warm. Please! :)
