Love these little sunshine babes way too much. 💫💫 they put our lives both on cruisssse mode and acceleration all at once, and taught us so many hard lessons in the short time we have been parents, and given us so much growing opportunities! ⭐️ 👋🏽 byeee clean(ish) house, 👋🏽 hiyeee constant adventure!!
Moody Oahu days but kinda loving this thunder storm weather! Sometimes I need a kick in the pants to just STAY PUT and enjoy a nice and slow morning!....and keep us indoors to bust out the paint set for us to play around with, and work on some more of those home projects! 😜
When you date and are newly weds, you hold in your farts 🤣, put on your best face 👸🏼, are extra tidy 💫, and maybe sneak in some love notes on a post it into your spouses lunch box. . . . . . Marriage is beautiful and with time we get comfortable (which is such a great thing!!), but with comfort we can also not make pouring into the other person a priority!! Especially with kids, and work, and just crazy schedules it is so easy to just kind of life together, but have completely separate lives. We don’t really notice it, but slowly we can just make tiny decisions to not put in the extra effort, or be a little less present, or just not make time to connect. . . . . This week is our anniversary, and I am taking advantage of feeling reflective, and making that effort to push again and revive some healthy habits that used to come so easy!! Is anyone else guilty of this, or does pouring in to your marriage come easy??☝🏽First stop, writing a couple post it love notes!! . . . . . 10 years and 3 kids later, these two bought themselves a Hawaiian adventure to celebrate each other and their love. They filled it with adventure, and it made me so happy to see them love on each other in this way, and pour in to their marriage!!Happy Anniversary, you two!!!!
Happy Summer Solsticeeeee cuties!!! Wanted to say aloha to all you beautiful people!! Here’s some random stuffs about me-💁🏼‍♀️ . . . . . I push hard hard hard then crash 👻 whether it be packing my schedule with home projects, fun stuff, shoots, etc. I get super excited and go go go, then if I had it my way, I’d be in bed by like 8:30 every night. Basically I’m 2. Or 85. 🤣 . . . . I’m super sensitive to all things unkind- just be kind, people!! Whether it’s bullying/teasing at schools, animal rights/etc, I really am sensitive to and feel for the underdogs, and these things really stick with me 🙈😫 . . . . . . . I am the total opposite of a homebody and need to get out of the house (preferably outside!!) as much as I can. One of the million reasons why I’m so grateful for photography!! 🥳🥳 . . . . . Do we have any of these random things in common, or do we balance each other out?🧐🤙🏽
Sometimes I can feel a little bit like my real life isn’t curated enough to show my real life BTSs 🙈🤣🤣 which is like whaaaaa. . . . Nooooo my kids aren’t always in those dreamy neutral colored clothing. . . . . My house isn’t super minimalistic with only cute wooden heirloom toys. . . . . I usually have a hat on bc I don’t want to spend the time doing my hair. . . . . But heck life is messy and crazy and wild and beautiful and I have a feeling that most of us are in the same boat. Swipe to see a little bit of real life real time me tryna post my IG and answer allll the emails while the boys are both happy! . . . . . . PS my suit is from @aerie , yesssss that shop we all knew and loved in HS, because you know what? They’re affordable and cute and they make one piece bathing suits in tall sizes. So A +++ all around ya know?⭐️⭐️⭐️💫💫💫💫 . . . 💥💥💥edited to add- I absolutely love love love pretty and good quality clothing and toys, and if I could afford to exclusively only have that I would!! I would. But at this time we have to pick and choose what pieces we add to our collection 😊 so, Goodwill treasure hunting and Aerie it is!! 🙃 . . . . .

Wedddding tip!!- be yourselfff and personalize your day. I know it sounds cliche 😜 but I remember planning our day and there’s certain traditions and elements that we felt some pressure to include!! We took out the pieces that didn’t feel like us, and added in some elements that were special. Get creative and personalize the heck out of it!!! . . . . Annnnd be open to ideas!! We had our wedding at a ranch on the North Shore and wanted it to feel like an old backyard farm fair 🤣 Andrew had the fun idea for our favors- to set up a “country store”, where each guests got a ticket and then got to go redeem their ticket at the little shop-some things they could choose from were homemade beeswax lip balm and honey sticks, a vegetable garden in a bag, lavender soap, or a whole pineapple 🤣 (thanks Dole Plantation!) TBH, I wasn’t sure if it would work, but it turned out being really fun, and gave the guests something to do during cocktail hour!! So, trust your person! 🥳 . . . . Do you want a mountaintop ceremony? An underwater vow exchange? Even something simple, like incorporating Taco Bell hot sauce (my faaaave 🤣) at your reception. Do ittttt, my friend!!! It’ll make your day that much more special!!!
