Hello September!

Today marks one month left in beautiful Hawaii Nei before we head out on our adventure around America.

This week Ben and I have spent some time in Haleakala National Park.

We stamped our National Park passport book and bought our first patch. 

We decided to begin collecting patches from all the places/parks we visit. My goal is to turn them into wall art and display them creatively. 

Our first patch.

Maui Family vacation

Part 1

We have a few more days left on Maui with my family. 

It has been great, we went to the summit of Haleakala National Park twice (sunset pictures to come). We drove the entire island, road to Hana and around the west Maui mountains. Last night all six of us went on a sunset cruise over looking Lanai and Molokai.

 Fun, exciting news to come!
