Aloha Hawaii!!!

So I got back from Hawaii a couple days ago and it was absolutely beautiful! I am going to live there one day, trust me. We stayed at Sunset Beach on the North Shore. I fell in love with the simple way they live. Here are some pictures from the week...


This was our first stop at Pearl Harbor. We literally came from the airport here so we were running on fumes. But it still was amazing to see something that historically important. It was also our first experience with Hawaii rain, which by the way is almost more like a mist. It was actually raining while we were taking this picture but you wouldn't have even known.

This was one of the most gorgeous views. We stopped on the side of the road for some pictures. We decided to take the scenic route along the outside of the island to get to our beach house and it was totally worth it. What an amazing place!
This was the view from the back porch of our beach house. I seriously did not expect it to be so amazing but it was everything I could have asked for and more. Most of the time, no one was even around our house so it was almost like a private beach.
One of my favorite moments of the whole trip was simply Brian and I walking along the beach together. It sounds cheesy but there was nothing more romantic. So I had to document it somehow.


The temple was amazing. Driving up to it seriously was beautiful. We didn't get a chance to stay very long, but it was long enough for me to fall in love.


Our last day. On our way back to Honolulu we stopped by the Dole Plantation and this ended up being one of my favorite pics from the whole trip. It was a beautiful day and it put an end to a fantastic week with the person I love...

I love Hawaii!!! Seriously it is the best. Did you get a matsumoto shaved ice?? I'll kill you myself if you didn't. haha. And that flower you put in your hair at the temple? I did the exact same thing! I love the Dole Plantation! Sounds like the exact same trip I had when I was there. :) We should go back sometime to Maui or something.
