What a lovely thing to be able to say we have finally been married for one year! My sweet husband surprised me with a weekend trip to Maui. We had a great time just relaxing and wonderful time together.
We stayed in a beautiful but modest hotel with a nice pool and hot tub (isn't that the best part of a hotel anyway?). We rented a bright green jeep form a local car rental company, went shopping at all the little stores, laid out on the beaches, ate at some good restaurants including Denny's and an awesome pizza place in Lahaina. We also paid a little visit to Hana--the beach with black sand. We took about a three hour drive on the windiest roads we've seen since the roads in Mexico. When we finally reached the famous black shores of Hana, we were so excited that while jumping in the ocean, we lost the key to the jeep. We worked it out with the company to have a tow truck company drive the spare key over to the Hana side. It is that excluded! Anyway, after a little wait and some complimentary homemade banana bread from the local hotel. It really wasn't that bad, although it did cost us a little!
Besides the excitement of the trip, it is an amazing feeling to know that my best friend is with me forever. We have endured so much together, and we know there is so much more to come. There is no one in the world I would rather be with than him. We love to be together every hour of every day. We look forward to all our future plans and how we'll spend the rest of our days together.
