Story of the Three Stooges

{Kona, Hawaii}

Once upon a time, I lived on a beautiful tropical island for a few months. I went there not knowing anyone, ready for an adventure, and trying hard on a daily basis not to miss everything I had left behind back at home for 6 months.

{especially this guy}

Thankfully, I bumped into Meredith and J.J. at the beginning of it all.

{me, jj, and mere}

We helped each other survive a tiny room with 10 girls and 1 bathroom.

{love them all}

Went on weekly dates down to Coconut Grove: Lava Java for coffee and banana pancakes or Hayashi's for $5 sushi rolls.

{best breakfast by the ocean}

Beach trips, Wal-Mart runs, karaoke, photo shoots, 2-day treks to Hilo by foot. Long conversations and heart-to-heart moments.

{beautiful friends}

These amazing women will forever be sister-friends to me.

I kind of miss them today. Oklahoma and New York seem so far away.

Hooray for Skype, scheming up reunion #3,

and lovely Tuesday wishes to you!
