Kauai Update

The time is almost here. Tomorrow morning at the terribly early time of 4:30 we will get up and head out for our kayaking adventure along the NaPali coast - shown at left. We are so excited! Pray for us to not get seasick and for us to truly sense God and celebrate the "sacredness of the here and now" as we enjoy this adventure together. This is the lesson God had been speaking to both Phil and I on this trip - to enjoy the moment we are in. So we've had a great time exploring many different beaches, taking the unexpected side roads, and just generally being aware of both God and one another in each moment, putting our anxiety or regrets aside for this time away. And we are really having the most wonderful time!

Here's a few of our favorite things from our trip so far: driving around in our Mustang convertible with the top down exploring and finding beaches we've never been to, fighting over our Shave Ice and Phil getting a brain freeze cause he was trying to eat it before me, hiking down, down, down to Secret Beach and seeing the Kilueau lighthouse from there, discovering these great coconut chocolate cream puffs, flying over the Na Pali coast and all of the canyons and waterfalls (including the one from Jurassic Park) and only getting a  LITTLE motion sickness, going to church this morning at Calvary Chapel Kauai (they meet in a REAL tent - pcitures to come), getting breakfast every morning from our favorite coffee shop - Java Kai, Phil stopping TWICE as we were driving along to buy me a beautiful lei, eating a Puka Dog, eating at Keoki's!, Phil buying me the most beautiful Ni'ihu shell necklace and earrings,and just laying on the beach reading and doing only what we want to!

We are thankful for this great opportunity. Thank you for praying for us. We are enoying the wonder of God's creation here on Kauai and in one another. We can't believe that on June 2nd we will celebrate our 24th anniversary. I thank God for such a wonderful husband, my three sweet children and you, our friends. To all you ladies - Happy Mother's Day!
