Kauai 2016

We recently took a trip to Kauai with Caleb's parents and it was so much fun! Kauai is known as the garden island and it unsurprisingly lived up to its name. The place was very "untouched" and not too developed; probably because the locals want to keep it that way. I loved it. We visited before the rush so it wasn't crowded and we didn't have trouble with parking at all. The weather was in the 80s and rainy some days, depending where you are on the island. The weather was a bit sporadic, but that didn't hinder us from all the things we wanted to do. We did everything we wanted and it worked out perfectly.

We drove up Waimea Canyon and took pictures at different lookout points. We found this cool little waterfall. The red "rock" is actually really red hardened sand.

Madre and Padre's Michigan Trip

May was a very fun and exciting month for Caleb and I. My parents came to visit for ten days, their first trip to Michigan. Ten days sounds long, but we kept busy for sure! We first went to a museum in Belleville called the Yankee Air Museum.

2015 Memories

This past year was a whirlwind. It went by quickly and because I'm a terrible recorder of my life I naturally went to my facebook to see all of my posts. 2015 was truly a great year for me. I'm the kind of person that is always looking to improve and learn. I definitely didn't fulfill my new year's resolutions from last year, but I feel that I started taking steps in the right direction. I have been blessed with so much. I need to complain less. I have grown closer to my family. I am more in love with my spouse. Caleb and I have everything we need to live plus more. Our lives are definitely not perfect, and we have our struggles, but our blessings have always outweighed our challenges and I need to keep remembering that. Here are some of my favorite memories from the year:
