It's All About Friends!

These wonderful women are my friends from junior high and high school. Even though it's been almost 40 years since we walked the halls of Olympus High School, our connections are still going strong. With the exception of four, plus Cozette Carlson who is behind the camera, we all attended a delightful dinner catered by Cozette in her beautiful home. We shared memories of our "escapades" and gave updates of our lives. What a wonderful group of friends. Thank you for always being there for me when life threw me a curve. I love associating with all of you!

Our Belated Honeymoon


After nearly a year of marriage, Paul & I went on our honeymoon to
one of the most beautiful places on earth...

The Garden Island of Kauai Hawaii!


Paul has been there a couple of times before, but this was my first time in Hawaii.

It is definitely paradise and such an amazing place.
Traveling to this place with my best friend
was more fun than I could have imagined.

These pictures don't begin to do justice to the places we saw.

We saw whales breaching the ocean, sunsets that looked like the sun fell into the ocean,

and even had a baby gecko in our condo.

Some of the highlights and photos include our hotel view in Waikiki,
our rental car (a red Jeep Wrangler), a tour of Pearl Harbor,
a view of the beautiful Laie Temple,

waves crashing on the North Shore of Oahu,
Paul on the North Shore "flexing",
our stop at the Waiamea Canyon,
amazing waterfalls, The Spouting Horn,

and shots from our helicopter ride to see the sights of Kauai.


We had such a wonderful, memorable trip that our hope is to return there soon.

Maybe next time we'll take you all with us. =]
