Dear Maui,
Thank you for your wide open spaces. Your big skies. Your insistence that we all take a breath and.....pause.
Thank you for the most beautiful sunrise I've ever seen atop a volcano, above the clouds, and in the arms of my best friend.
Thank you for the moments of wow, the joy....
and the exhausting kind of fun.
Thank you for the time with our well loved friends....
and crushes.
Thank you for the opportunity to witness the celebration, the joining, the commitment of two amazing souls in love. It's been a long time since I cried at a wedding, and the tears were happy and full. 
Thank you for your sunsets. It's rare that we get anything near this gorgeous in Portland. 
I especially thank you for the downtime....
The all out lounging...
The time with family...
and each other.
We're having the best time. Unplugged and grateful. XO, all of us.
