temple goal

we are still working on our 50 temples in 5 years goal... The Salt Lake City Temple comes in at number 7 and the Laie Hawaii at 8.



so we are at 8 for 2 years... just 42 to go! :)

Racking up our tourist points at the Polynesian culture Center, Dole Pineapple Farm, Matsumoto's Shaved Ice and Pearl Harbor.

one of my favourite things about moving around like jord and i do, is the people we get to meet along the way. this trip we got to see some of them.


Bro. Keola, who was in jordan's life when he was younger, and made sure i ate right while i was at BYUH.


The Wolfersburgers, are my sister-in-laws cousins, they adopted me while i was in Hawaii, i babysat them while she was having their 3rd. scary that hes now 3!!


the always beautiful and helpful Melissa, took us out line dancing with Carter! so much fun!! think i may have found my calling in life.

New Zealand culture + Michael Jackson = happiest clip ever
(from the movie "Boy" so wonderful)

happy hawaiian times

this month i surprised jordan with a trip to hawaii, well i tried to surprise him, it lasted about 2 weeks before i blurted it out, but hey, we went mainly for anita and katie's graduation, two of my favourite girls in the world. ahhh so good.



the other two ladies happen to also be my favourite! :) Leana who just returned from her mission in Carmel, Indianapolis. And the beautiful Rachael who i met my second day at BYUH. (there are 2 who couldn't make it, for good reason though, Chelsea is currently serving in Brasil and April just came home from her mission to marry her best friend in July)



we did take the opportunity to catch up on some serious sun time, enough to turn us both a lovely shade of pink!





everyone together at the rental with their happy others!! from left, Katie and Nate williams, Me and Jord, Nathan and Rachael, Leana and Anita.



we have many more photos which i will get to put for now Aloha, we love you and we are so happy and grateful for our ridiculous life.

so jordan and i have decided to head back down to Houston this summer, to work and play with Elite. very excited to have made a decision! bring on the sun, softball, bbq's and cowboy boots!

Jord and I had a day off together yesterday for the first time in months, we had planned to go snowboarding but with jords leg still all sore, we decided to take a drive up to the "This is the place" monument as we have been living in SL a while now and never been. such a beautiful day! i love spring! we then carried on up emigration canyon and stopped at Ruth's for buiscuits and Jam.... great day.
