Summer is my favorite time of year. Just laying around in the sun, enjoying road trips, boating, and running on the beach!
Here are a couple of things that I have to have during the warm summer months to keep me cool and comfortable.
I’ve been a little MIA on the blog because I’ve been enjoying my long vacation on Maui. Currently still in Maui enjoying the sunshine but thought I would check in to give a quick update before I do a full recap!
Here is possibly my last Maui post before we go on our vacation in May! Today I’m covering some of my favorite beaches and snorkeling spots on Maui. There are so many amazing beaches; these are the ones that we will go to multiple times on vacation.
MAUI!! This is one of my favorite places to vacation too; I’ve been going since I was a little kid. I’ve been almost 20 times, so I’ve tried a lot of different charters and activities. When going, we always try to find a new activity to do. Here are the top four activities that we’ve done several times, and I always tell people they should do.
Don’t worry I’ll be doing separate posts on beaches, snorkeling, and where to eat as we get closer to our next trip to Maui in May.
In the last post about Washington we went to Eastern Washington, this week we are going to stay close to my current home town in Western Washington. I live on Whidbey Island, which is in the Puget Sound, about 40min north of Seattle. To do something quick for a morning hike or a short road trip we like to drive up the island to a small, short, mountain in Anacortes Washington, Mt. Erie.
Happy Valentine’s day!!
I thought I would come on here and share our wedding ring tradition with you guys since we don’t do anything special for valentines day.
Our tradition is that for every vacation we get new QALO rings. It all started when we eloped to Bora Bora. I didn’t want to worry about my fancy engagement ring, because I knew we would be doing a lot of water activities. We decided to go with white QALO rings for the ceremony, and they looked perfect. I didn’t have to worry about losing my ring or putting it in the safe. For the rest of the elopement and the adjoining trip to Loreto, we had aqua and black for hubby and me. Mine glowed in the dark so way cool!
The reason we went with QALO is that we can wear these during all our activities while on vacation. I don’t have to worry about sand, sunscreen, or losing it in the ocean. We also wear these around the house when we are doing yard work or working out. They come in a cute carrying pouch, that is perfect for travel as well.
About six months later we went to Maui and decided we needed a new set for this trip. So, after scouring their website, we both decided to get the gray/silver rings. They weren’t identical in color, but they were close enough that it was cute!
We are about to go back to Maui in about three months and are trying to figure out what color we should get this year? I was thinking pink, but they don’t make a men’s pink ring unless I get him the largest women’s size! So maybe marble? Or they have new ones that you can customize and are two-toned in color? So many options can’t wait to share what we picked!
What are your Valentines’ traditions?
Not sponsored just truly love the rings!
Yes, that’s right I said you can see all of Yellowstone National Park in 2 days. That’s exactly what my husband and I did a couple of summers ago. We were already in Boise, Idaho for a wedding, so we decided why not drive another 6hrs to Yellowstone! It was very last minute, and we were lucky we even found a room close to the park, we only had two days, so we decided to cram seeing the park into those two days. Here is a little travel itinerary, tips, tricks and photo diary of our last-minute road trip to Yellowstone.
Here are some of my favorite pictures from our road trip through Yellowstone National Park. You can read about the trip here!
