Arizona/Colorado/Hawaii

For MLK weekend, Keith and I flew out to Arizona to see Jessica and Booby Rampton. It is always so fun to be with them, and we always wish we had more time together! We visited Midwestern, saw some of my friends from Jerusalem, rode the Tandem bike, picked lemons, oranges and grapefruit from the fruit trees there, played hearts, had a BBQ, went scorpion hunting, etc etc. Keith had to leave Monday to go back to school  and I left Tuesday to go to work. But, I couldn't make any flights to Denver! So I missed worked :( and flew home to Hawaii :)!

Its been really hard to leave Honolulu going standby lately. Thus I've had a lot of extra planes rides and new routes in the last few weeks... but the plane window views never disappoint me :)

When I was home in Colorado it was FREEZING!!! And that is even an understatement because 32 degrees is freezing and it was 50 degrees colder than that! It was -18!! With the windchill it even got as cold as -35!!! And I work outside people!!! Holy cow, it was cold. I kept thinking...'it's 100 degrees warmer at home in Hawaii...' One of my work friends posted this cartoon haha..

Regardless of the well-below-freezing temperatures, it was great seeing and being with the fam a few days. Kylee and her friend Katie gave me spa treatment at their "Joy and Happiness Spa" and I was able to see Ashley's swim competition ( PS They had school canceled for two days because the weather was so cold!)

 

It's great to be back in Hawaii. Here we are at the Pali Lookout recently. I always miss Hawaii when I'm gone.

But not nearly as much as I missed this handsome face.
