October

October began with another trip to California bringing a behind the bike trailer for Abigail. She was a smiling rider behind her aunt and mommy!

The trip then led to Hawaii with my cousin Marcelle and her sweet friend from nursing school Lauren....

It truly is as beautiful as the photos with the beaches and palm trees and wonderful sun.....
We ate some wonderful seafood, flew in a helicopter over hot lava, and snorkeled with large and gorgeous turtles.





The flowers were larger than almost believable and more colorful than in Kansas, although Kansas has it's own beauty! It was amazing to see the lava form tunnels in the ground and swim with fish of such amazing varieties.

It made me wonder with all God can make and do, why Will did not get to live longer. It means God's ways really are above mine and His thoughts above mine. (Isaiah 55:9)Until the two meet we and I continue to live and figure out how to celebrate life where ever that might take.
