Aloha, friends! I hope you had an amazing June!
Mine was extraordinary – I traveled to Hawaii for a family wedding! (So if you thought I was MIA, that is why!) 🌺
I traveled with my brother and cousins. And aside from the wedding, which was gorgeous and so fun, we adventured and explored as much of Oahu as we could. 🏝
We snorkled, hiked, ate amazing food, and saw sunrises and sunsets. 🤿
Some of my favorite parts were visiting the USS Arizona at Pearl Harbor, zip-lining on the North Shore, and driving an ATV through a natural preserve that was the setting for countless movies and shows including, Jurassic Park, Jumanji, and 50 First Dates. 🦖
This trip – and coming back to normal life after it – consumed most of my month! 🤗
How about you? What happened in your June? 😎

Gorgeous photos! My birthday is in June and I had to leave early in the a.m. to go and clean up a flooded basement for my daughter who was to leave for a Baltic Sea Cruise and didn’t have time to mop up before leaving. I must have wet vacuumed 20 gallons of water and brought home a load of sopping wet towels to wash and dry. My husband gave me the choice of Hawaii or Great Britain for our 35th anniversary. I chose Great Britain…can you imagine why?
Thanks for sharing about your trip. It looks lovely and fun in Oahu.
What a nice line up of reading and visits for July!
Happy 4th and Happy July, Meredith!
My brother married in one of the Hawaiian wedding packages. Their pictures were amazing. However, back in the day, the family couldn’t go. But that was OK. They didn’t expect us to. They then had their honeymoon on the islands.
Sounds like you had a ball. I’m so glad you were able to go and enjoyed yourself. I always appreciate your beautiful pictures. Thanks for sharing them with us. Blessings.
Such lovely pics! I’ve always fancied Hawaii, it looks like a paradise.
You have a busy month ahead. I will look forward to your posts.
Exciting month! A new Julie Cooper and a touch of Magic 😉
Looking forward to your review of Against every expectation.
