It's FRIDAY! I have a hot date tonight and I can't wait! Someone might be getting lucky tonight! {I said MAYBE}
In the meantime, I'll be daydreaming. My darling and adorable IRL friend, Becca, has a blog called R We There Yet Mom. If you love to travel, you should check it out! She is a wealth of knowledge on the subject.
So I'm daydreaming of a trip that M and I took to Hawaii a few years ago.
This was our 2nd trip to Hawaii. This time, we brought along my in-laws. No laughing please. We went to the island of Kauai and it was amazing and perfect.
- We ate at the most amazing restaurants. Yeah, I gained 10 pounds in 11 days. I'm a girl that likes to eat. So what?

| Look how young and TAN! *depression* |
- We hiked several amazing trails {so glad I was able to squeeze in some exercise. Otherwise my 10 pound weight gain could have been 20!}
- We toured around Waimea Canyon and explored Kilauea Light House. Gorg!
- We made fun of the town called Po'ipu. {It sounds like poo poo. See? Funny!}
- We enjoyed visiting MANY beaches along the island and people watching never fails to give me a giggle.
- We kayaked to a monstrous waterfall.
- We stood under said waterfall and I almost died. It hurt. Don't stand under tall waterfalls.
- We ziplined! My favorite adventure hands down!
Ok, are you laughing at this picture? Look at our sunglasses? And the tilted hard hat is hilarious. Whatev.
As I'm typing this, M told me that he'll take me back there someday. That makes me happy! {He totally deserves to get lucky for that comment, right?} It was my favorite vacation to date.
So, do you have a daydream today?











42 peeps showin' some love:
We went to Hawaii with my inlaws!! a 2 week cruise of the islands!! It was awesome but agonizing at the same time. I think that Maui and Kauai were my favorite islands!!

doh!
I've never been to Hawaii, but it looks like you had a blast. When you go on vacation, you don't have to worry about eating too much etc because you're on vacation (and weight gain doesn't count then..)
And he should totally get lucky for that comment, after he gives you a date for it haha.
Hope you have fun on date night!
What? They didn't have special helmets for cheeseheads? Whatup?
I'm major jealous.
i wish i had money to travel more
OK since I can't go to Hawaii I will just live vicariously through your memories mmmkay. Oh and the hard hat pic hubby looks like he is wearing earrings to add to the funny. Where he has the strap loose.
I so want to go to Hawaii...we are planning on it for our 10th anniversary (2014).
I love date night! Have fun!
Looks like a ton of fun - certainly a place I would LOVE to go to!!!!
ANd have I told you lately how much I LOVE you for supporting me so so much???
Have a wonderful weekend and thank you for linking up to R We There Yet Mom?!!
~Becca
Ohhhhh this post makes me want to GO! NOW!
When I was a kid, my mom occasionally made us watch dumb old movies that she loved. The only one I shared her love for was Blue Hawaii. It's a dream of mine to go someday!!
Have fun tonight!! ;)
Kauai looks like so much fun! We have been to Maui and Oahu but I'd really like to go back to Hawaii to see the other islands - especially the Big Island and Kauai.
You just described my perfect vacation! Well, minus the in-laws part. :o)
I love the pictures, too!!! I miss being tan. I'm almost see-through at this point.
Yay have fun on your date!
I've never been to Hawaii, but I would LOVE to go! Looks like you had a blast, very cute pics!
I'm going to Playa del Carmen a month from today, so that's what I'm daydreaming about after seeing your vaca photos!
XOXO
I loved this post. You two look made for each other in all those pics, and that last one is priceless. Love the advice "Don't stand under tall waterfalls." Sage wisdom.
The only problem is I am now DESPERATE to go on vacation. Or even a freaking date.
I want to go there so bad!!! Its on my bucket list!! It looks so fun!! I love the pictures-- tilted hard hat and sunglasses-- the whole bit! :)
I want to go there!!!
I've been to Kauai a few times, and it's definitely my favorite island! I love Po'ipu! Happy Fridayyy :)
You look the same!
I want to go to poo poo. Guess I'll head to Hellmart.
I've never been to HI but have wanted too.
It's just an expensive destination!!
Kauai is our most favorite place ever!!!! We are actually going back in a cour months, and poopoo is the best place ever!! (thats where we stay) did you eat at kiokis in poopoo? We ziplined too, so much fun. Hey, maybe hubby will take you back in a couple months and we can zipline, or skinny dip, together?
Look at you tan cuties! I've never been to Hawaii, I would love to visit sometime! Looks like you all had so much fun, even if the inlaws were along! M better keep his word on taking you back someday...but I agree, you can still keep the 'maybe' for tonight ;)
What up, homey?!
I miss your face. Is it srsly 20 something days until our GNO? Dang it.
LOVE the pics!! I think you look just as hott or hotter now. Nice tan though. I'm getting a spray tan before Cali. Maybe they could do some shading on my cottage cheese...make it less lumpy??
I wanna go somewhere tropical. I wanna drink fruity liquor laden drinks with umbrellas and a cute boy who rubs...um, sunscreen on me...yeah, that's it.
Oh, and ziplining is on my bucket list! I MUST do it...soon.
I just moved back to the mainland from the great Aloha state. We spent the last 3 years on Oahu but I did get to visit some of the other islands. We LOVED Kauai! I really wanted to float down the canal in the tubes. Have you ever been to the Big Island? We stayed up at KMC on the volcano. It was a great trip as well.
Have never been to Hawaii but definitely on my list. Looks like so much fun. And I was totally wondering about the titled hard hat before you said anything. :)
You know, if you wore the tilted hardhat while standing under the tall waterfall, you'd be just fine.
And because I'm legally required to help out my fellow men, M totally deserves to get lucky tonight!
Ok so I went to Oahu last fall. Then we saw the movie Just Go With It and I did some investigating and it was filled in Maui & Kauai. Now we're debating going back maybe next year.... so your pics look like some of the places off the movie so I might be sold on Kauai
Totally jealous of your HI trip! We almost booked there instead of Jamaica because I am sooo wanting to go there. I have never been but Josh has.
I want to go to Hawaii sooo badly. That kayak trip looks awesome. Check you out with the paddle!
You are brave to zipline. It looks terrifying to me, but I bet it was a rush. Have a great date night!
Next time, don't take the inlaws ;) Looks like a great trip.
I loved Hawaii but not enough to go back again...unless someone else was paying. I have a moot:go everyone once before you go anywhere twice. There are of course some exception like visiting family and taking advantage of someone offer to use their SC cabin for free, I'm not stud after all.
Love the tan, everyone looks better with a tan!
We zip-lined in the Dominican Republic and is was awesome! Lets add zip-lining as couples somewhere tropical to our bucket list!
Ahhhhh, I so so so want to go there some day!!!! It looks amazing!
I've never been to Hawaii but I want to so badly! Maybe one day!
Looks like fun.
It looks amazing and gorgeous. And you 2 look adorable and happy!
I love the pictures!
I have never been to Hawaii. Maybe I can convince the boyfriend we need to take a family vaca. =] Anyway, I just found your blog & I love it! I am a new follower. Check out my blog & maybe you'd like to follow back.

Yall are so cute.
ps - I threw you under the bus a couple posts back. Regarding Emily Post
Never been there, but I will. I'll happily gain all the weight for the trip!
Oh, I'm jealous! My husband went to Kauai for work a few years ago and said it was the most beautiful place he's ever seen. I really want to go there!
You're lucky!
I'm gonna be honest...the tilted hard hat makes it appear that perhaps you took the zipline adventure while intoxicated. It's okay...I like that about you ;)
