The weather today is humid and hot. At some points the sun is warm and hot on my skin and then a cloud will roll in and create a nice shade over everything. The sky is the most beautiful shade of blue. I wish I could go and enjoy it but I'm stuck in the office. Happy Friday everyone!!

I personally love her blog and was so pleased when the Rafflecopter randomly chose her as the winner for blog spotlight of the week!!! I forgot to notify her until tonight oops!! Sorry Elizabeth! So I just wanted to put a quick blurb here. She has wonderful pictures and posts about her life and she also has wonderful recipes that I guarantee you'll want to try!!

This throwback Thursday I'm sharing photos of my grandparents. My dad's parents Jean and Peter (I'm named for Jean) both died long before I was born. My mom's dad Henry died long before I was born and my mom's mother Endoline was the only grandparent I got to know. She died a few years ago and I still miss her.
My grandma Jean and grandpa Peter (my father's parents) on their wedding day. |
My grandpa Henry and my grandma Endoline (my mom's parents) not long after he came home from WWII in the Navy. |
My grandma Jean. I love this pic of her in a bathing suit back in the day!! |
How are all of you doing? I am so excited to be back and nearly 100%. I miss blogging!! I hope you all are doing amazingly well and are having a wonderful week!!
xoxo,
Jean

This Wordless Wednesday I decided to post my current favorite photos of Honolulu. The top 2 phtoos are of Waikiki Beach and Diamond Head taken from the Rainbow Tower at Hilton Hawaiian Village. The last photo is of Ala Moana Beach park a month or so ago. I'm so lucky and blessed to live in Hawai'i!!
How's the weather where you live? Is it warming up nicely? I hope you are all having a lovely week!!
Oh and if you haven't already, check out my photography website!!
