So a lot of you may have known that I just got back to Hawaii from a lengthy vacation. I was away from the island for about 18 days which is the longest vacation I've ever taken in my life. I had an amazing time, got to see a lot of family, eat food we don't have in HI, and shop shops we don't have in HI but it's nice to be back home.
So my adventure started with me arriving in KC on my birthday so that evening family came over for cake and ribs and all that good stuff. The next morning mom, dad and I took off towards Michigan. Yes, I can still sleep from our driveway until we reach Chicago, and I did. We were in Michigan for about 9 days and in that time I got to see some family, went to Mackinac Island, and spent a ton of time with Michelle. It was abnormally hot but other than that the stay was good and like any other year it was hard to leave.
On our way home from Michigan we stopped in Illinois to drop in on Jeremy and Elisha. I had never seen their new house, which was beautiful and perfect for them. Sadly we didn't stay long, we left the next morning to return home.
One back in Kansas my main focus was to get my fill of shopping and food that I don't have access to in Hawaii. Mostly food though, I made sure to hit up Luigi's, Chipotle, Olive Garden, Stix and other chinese restaurants. It was so delicious but I think I've gained some pounds.
Three days later, my friend Rachel and I were jet setting off to sunny LA for the CrossFit Games. For those of you who don't know, CrossFit is the workout program Robert and I do and the CF Games are basically the olympics for the sport. Even though I wasn't competing it was amazing and inspiring to watch. I can't wait to go back next year.
Now I'm back in Hawaii enjoying the gym, the neutral weather, my family of believers. These women are truly a blessing to me and I am certain God sent me to Hawaii to grow for Him.
