"I believe in pink. I believe that laughing is the best calorie burner. I believe in kissing, kissing a lot. I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong. I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls. I believe that tomorrow is another day. And I believe in miracles."

Maui with the Murrays

A few weeks ago Bryan & I joined his parents in celebrating their 30th wedding anniversary 
in Maui, Hawaii. It is surreal looking back on the photos of us lazing around under the sun
 sippin' mai tais when I am currently sitting at home in my PJs (otherwise known as hoboclothes) 
watching some lame vampire movie on the Disney channel. Those were the good ol' days. 

 I didn't take out my camera very much... we were all about our camera phones that week, 
which the majority of my photos came from. Without further ado, here is my photo diary:

If you are wondering what sorts of activities we participated in, I can provide you with the list.
- lying by the pool
- lying by the beach
- frolicking in the pool
- frolicking in the ocean
- reading by the pool
- watching sports by the pool
- drinking (oftentimes by the pool)
- indulging in delicious foods
from restaurants all over the island
- SOMETIMES ALL OF THEM AT THE SAME TIME

It was absolute bliss. I gained four pounds.

Halfway through our week-long trip, we journeyed over to the other side of the island
for Bryan's parents' vow renewal ceremony. All I have now are camera phone pictures but the 
Murrays hired a photographer, so I might update this post later when the professional photos come in. The beach was breath-taking and the ceremony was so perfect. Even though a man decided to strip off his bathing suit and go skinny dipping right in front of us. Let's hope the videographer got that on film...

And on our last evening on the island, Bryan & I went on a "sunset sail". 
The food was okay. The guava & rums were delish. The brownies were YUMMM.

Sea turtles!!! I LIKE TURTLES.

 It got pretty cloudy so we, ironically, did not get to see the sunset haha. It was still beautiful, though!!

And the next morning we flew out of Hawaii and straight back into reality. 
It was such an amazing trip. I want to thank the Murrays for inviting me and 
allowing me to share such a special time with their family. 

 THANK YOU KEN AND RONA!!!!! :)
