     Wonderful, blessed, busy, tiring, and over 40 hours of service week! 💗

    So fun seeing these great friends on  Saturday! 💗

 Mii's Birthday party at the Farm on Friday.

I have to add this picture for my memory of this moment when we were headed straight towards a rainbow that ended right in front of us on the road. You can't tell from this picture, but maybe see a little color ahead. As I've said before, I love rainbows! 💗

The north shore of Oahu has more than seven miles of beaches that attract the world's best surfers. Some of the world's most competitive surfing competitions are held here. The biggest waves are usually in the winter and can reach up to 30 feet high. 

Happy Monday! Today is the International Day of Happiness. Did you know that Samoans are also known as the happiest people? That's right! This vibrant and joyful culture has a reputation for spreading happiness wherever they go! From their lively music and dance traditions to their strong family values and love for community, the Samoan people embody the true essence of happiness. Let's celebrate by spreading joy and positivity like the Samoans do.

The fish hook is known in Hawaii as the makau and stands for strength, prosperity and respect for the ocean. In the early days of Polynesian settlement in Hawaii, fishermen created fish hooks from whatever material was available. Using just handmade tools and files made from coral and stone, they carved and chiseled fish hooks out of human and whale bones, wood, shells and even canine teeth. The god Maui used one called Mānaiakalani to hook the islands together to try and unite them, making the makau a part of Hawaiian lore. The Makau now represents “a symbol of humans’ connection with the sea, its creatures and the fragile balance of life on the Islands.”

These fish hooks are hand carved from wood and wrapped at the end with a cord. An ornament to show your love of Hawaii. 

The Polynesian paradise is rich with history, culture, music, and activities tucked away on the North Shore of Oahu.

Dine like royalty at our authentic Hawaiian Luau and top it off with the most spectacular evening show in the islands
