We are back from our fabulous trip to Kauai and instead of telling you all about it I’m just going to photobomb you with some unshared pictures.
This picture of the chicken (which are everywhere in Kauai) is for my friend Elena to go along with the Hello, Elena series of chicken pictures from Carri.
Last but not least, if you haven’t already seen this picture on Instagram or Twitter here is my latest ink that I got on our last night in Kauai. This makes my 5th tattoo (Hayley’s name is on the other side of my ankle with different flowers).
It was a great 7 days. I’ve got a few more pictures to share of me with my newest travel accessory which will probably be posted sometime next week.
Over at One Martini at a Time we are featuring a Lemon Cosmopolitan Recipe that is easy to make and can serve a crowd.

Beautiful!
It’s amazing where you’ll find chickens just hanging out…like Key West. Kauai.
Nice tat! Do you have pics of your others?

I posted a picture a few months back of my Grateful Dead turtle tattoo but that’s it. The rest are still a mystery to my online friends.
Lucky girl!

So gorgeous! I’m glad you had such a fun time (and got such a memorable souvenier!)
It was a great vacation. I recommend it if you want to relax and see the ocean.

Great tattoo, and I love the sunrise/sunset photos. Oh, I can’t WAIT to go back to Hawaii… which will probably won’t be till 2015, at this rate! For now, I live vicariously through your photos…

I don’t know if I will ever make it back to Hawaii but I enjoyed every minute of the 7 days I was there.
Those are gorgeous pics and I’m insanely jealous!

That is a long flight! I thought my 7 hours in the plane was bad.
I love these pictures! I WANT to go on a vacation Kauai! *sigh. I guess I’ll just have to vicariously live through your pictures for now. ;(

One day you will get there.
I left out a “to” in my last comment. Sorry.

Between these and the ones I saw on Instagram it looks like an amazing vacation. And I love the new tattoo! Beautiful work!
It was a fabulous (and much needed) vacation!

What an awesome trip. I’m so glad you guys had a fabulous time. Kauai is on my bucket list of places to travel for sure. But, now that I hear they have chickens everywhere, I may have to reconsider.
Maui didn’t have chickens. Maybe I should just stick to that island.
Elena recently posted..The Family That Dances Together…
If you go to Kauai I want to go with you (mostly just to see your reaction to the chickens all over – one of them bit John’s toe).

I told you that you were too close to those vicious little suckers.
They were just saying hi.
beautiful pictures…I just love living near the water, getting to enjoy views like these makes everyday is such a treat. glad you had fun…nice tat!

Our room was right by the ocean and it was so wonderful to be by the water. Enjoy it!
That is my favourite place in the world.
Ps. Thanks for getting a chicken pic for me

There is nothing like a Hawaiian sunset.
Love the photos and the new ink!

And the ink, sigh. LOVE.
Can’t wait to see more!
BTW, you should have snuck that cock home with you…that and some local grown feed. I hear they drop AMAZING eggs. (the DH has a cousin who is an organic farmer on one of the islands. her eggs sell for $8 a dozen!)
$8 a dozen? Damn, I wish I would have known that ahead of time. We would have snuck home a bunch of those damn cocks.

Ahhh…Hawaii, no matter what island makes me wistful. I am so glad you had such a great trip and came back with a tattoo reminder. I love it btw! I have not been to Kauai but your pictures solidified my desire. I have been to Maui x2 and Oahu x1 and am dreaming of going back. Would love to see more pictures!
SassyB recently posted..What’s Your Code?
Kauai was very relaxing which is why we decided to go there. Everything shuts down around 9pm so I’ve heard it’s a lot different than Maui and Oahu.
What a truly wonderful trip you had! I loved getting to see your pictures!

You MUST frame or get a canvas of that 2nd one – LOVE it! And that rainbow over the waterfall, just amazing!!! So glad you have these gorgeous photos and memories.

I am going to make a photobook with our pictures and do a few framed or canvas shots as well.
Stunning!!! Hawaii is one of the most beautiful places I have ever been to, it even smells great! So glad you saw so many beautiful sights and were able to enjoy it all with your man. Welcome home.
Marie@feedingfive recently posted..Being a Grown Up
Thank you Marie! We did enjoy the sights and smells there. It was a beautiful place.
Seriously- one of my favorite places on earth!!! You captured it beautifully & awesome ink my friend. I have been wanting to add some myself- just always seems to be a new lens I want more these days
Gina recently posted..What You Find at 2 a.m.
I’ve had this tattoo on my list to do since my youngest was born almost 3 years ago but it was hard to put the money towards the tattoo instead of something else and to have time to get it without the kids around. Vacation was the perfect time.

Yes you do need to get your ass back there and then I can be jealous of your pictures. But you would have to promise to send me pictures of any drinks you have.

Such gorgeous photos. I was born in Hawaii. Honolulu specifically but moved to Kansas when I was three. Most of my baby pictures are taken somewhere cool like this. Then, my adolescent pictures were taken in a shitty farmhouse.
