Friends Forever

You never know who will come into your life or why. The bigger picture always reveals itself when you are ready. 

Celebrate all your life's moments, and achievements, you earned it! Today marks 16 years of marriage to one of my best friends. It's been a day of celebrating our lovely family and friendship. 

I'm blessed to have such wonderful friends who make my journey amazing. 

I wish you and me an amazing journey!

Love Always,

Maile

Happy Easter Sunday

I have always loved Easter. As a kid, waking up to find a beautiful Easter basket filled with presents and colorful eggs was almost as exciting as Christmas morning.

My mom was crafty and artsy about it and we would enjoy making big messes while coloring all the Easter eggs. Then waiting while my dad hid the eggs in the yard, and finding more than my brother, was always fun.

I did the egg coloring and egg hunt with my own kids when they were smaller to, but now they are older, and lately we have been discussing the meaning of the holiday.

The beginning of Christianity was the resurrection of Jesus Christ. There were no egg hunts at the crucifixion, that was more of a pagan ritual to celebrate fertility and spring.

Isn't it nice how time has changed the holiday to add gifts, the Easter bunny, marshmallow peeps, and the very popular Easter brunch buffets that require reservations days, weeks, or months in advance?

It doesn't matter how you celebrate or why. As long as you are enjoying your life and living each day, including holidays, the way that makes you happy, then the journey is memorable.

We are all on this lovely crazy journey of our lives, I wish you many blessings and lots of fun.

Hope you get lots of crazy colored Easter eggs and maybe a chocolate bunny to. I always bite the ear off first, for some reason, I think it hurts the chocolate bunny a little less. Ha ha.

Love and Aloha,
Maile

Spring Break Finally!

It's Aloha Friday and the last day of school! Our family is happily celebrating Spring Break! Well, technically, right after school today. A mere six and half hours or so.

My older son has been asking me what are we going to do? I think he keeps hoping I will answer something about travel or spending everyday at the water park.

Seriously, my only plan is to sleep in a little later, and let them make their own breakfast.

I would like to get them started on a fitness routine and maybe get more physical activities in their day. Most of all, I really want them to have fun.

As long as they don't get homework assignments, really that usually impacts my fun time and I don't really want homework.

Happy Friday!!! Happy Spring Break!!!

Aloha,
Maile
