What a great day...

Today I was able to spend some quality time with my sisters. My sisters and I have been all over the map in the last couple of years and while we are still close, it's still sad to see that we spend more time apart then we do together...I suppose that's just part of growing up. Well anyhow separation aside, we had a great time exploring the island of Kauai together. My mom kept Austin which was so nice...thanks mom:) We started our afternoon with a small map of Kauai and basically closed our eyes and pointed in the direction we were going. Our first stop was the beautiful lighthouse that sits on the farthest point of the island. It was so breathtaking to see the water and mountains come together. It was also fun to see an active lighthouse in action!! Our second stop was a quiet beach near Princeville. It so awesome to be on an island where you can visit the beach and feel like you are on an excluded island. Kauai is not like any other island in Hawaii. It's not commercialized and the island is still maintained by the locals and family owned businesses...it truly feels like paradise! Well I will stop yapping and let you enjoy the pictures of my sisters and I together:)













So far, I have had a wonderful time with my family here in Hawaii, but even through all the fun, I am missing a huge part of me...my best friend and husband. It's so hard to think that this time last year we were vacationing in Alaska together with my family and without him, a large part of me is sad not to have him here. So sweetie, I took this picture for you...I love you and miss you to the sky!!
