I bought a baseball hat at Bald Head and now I have no motivation to wash my hair.
We had a wonderful time celebrating Matt’s birthday with Dallas friends at a brewery last weekend. I wish I had the energy to entertain more often.
I’m on the way to Hawaii today and I’m equally excited and scared. That’s 9 hours of flying time plus layover/travel time. #whatwerewethinking
After this trip, summer is coming to a close. I feel like I blinked and it was over.
I got a kindle and just started The Nightingale!
If you’ve been to Maui, what must I see, do, or eat?

July 20, 2017 at 9:21 amHi Laura! Long time reader here in San Francisco and first time leaving a comment because I had to steer you in the direction of T Komoda Store & Bakery in Maui… It is a must try. They have the best island style desserts that you just can’t find anywhere else. Enjoy your time on Maui and all the best for a safe & smooth trip!
PS: Emerson is a doll & you have a beautiful little family 🙂

A sunset sail with Trilogy, if you don’t get seasick (it’s baby/kid friendly too). Dinner at MALA in Lahaina. Iao Valley State Park. The Aquarium is fun for the last day. Enjoy every sunset with a mai tai in hand! 🙂

July 22, 2017 at 8:18 amAhh! Y’all are always on the go! Guess you have to take advantage of summers, right?! Are you planning to go back to work in the Fall? I assume you are! 🙂 Are you taking Emerson to Hawaii with you? You’re brave, and awesome! I’d LOVE for you to do a post on traveling with a baby!! It would be very helpful!
Laura
July 22, 2017 at 4:39 pmHi! Yes, I must take advantage of summer because I go back to work mid August. Emerson is here with us, and other than the time change, she’s pretty easy to travel with. I haven’t been ready to leave her behind yet. I’ll try to do a post when I get home!

July 24, 2017 at 9:04 pmOh my gosh Maui is the best!! I can highly recommend the following:
Food:
Star Noodle in Lahaina
Charley’s Pancake House in Paia
The restaurant at the Andaz Wailea (there are two, I’m referring only the farm to table one, not Morimoto, though Morimoto is amazing too, just less novel)
Thai food from one of the snacks in Hana
Activities:
The Road to Hana using the GyPSy app (starts in Paia, leave no later than 8am!)
Reeeeeeelaxing
Oh yeah, people like the volcano too! 😉
Laura
July 26, 2017 at 2:07 amThanks! We had to skip Star Noodle bc we were sick:( Heading to Wailea and hopefully Paia tomorrow!
