Maybe you were wondering if I’ve ever been to Hawaii? The answer is yes, yes I have. My family and I went when I was in 6th grade, I think, and unfortunately for me photographic evidence of this vacation actually exists.
Get a load. Of this.
BAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! OMG, THE 90’S!!!!!! Why?? Just…why?
I really need to stop showing you embarrassing old photos of myself.
Ok, after this one.
Wow that looks really good! I saw a recipe a lot like that on this vegetarian web site only without the chicken. I think I’m going to be making that this weekend. My grandparents took me so many places when I was kid I can’t even count. I think I’ve been to over 30 different states. So much fun. My favorite place to vacation is Maine. Really beautiful.
I used to take family vacations to Florida to visit my grandparents. We’d go twice a year; it was great! Then we started going to more “exotic” places, like Hawaii, Aruba, and the Bahamas!
I totally learned the hard way after getting a stress fracture in my heel after my 2nd marathon that continuing to run thru pain is not good! I also know how HARD it is to take time off from running or cardio in general. Take the time to check out and try some different exercise options, i.e. Yoga, swimming, strength training. And the time will go by easier. Good luck! BTW – yummy bread – super jealous!
Omg my uncle posted pics from the tween years on fb awhile back… TRAJ… just traj! We went to places like Maine, and Arizona, and then when we lived in Maryland we went to the Delaware shore every summer! Once we moved to England trips got WAY cooler, Egypt, Dubai, Spain, Africa, France, Belgium, Prague, Italy, Germany, Poland, Morocco, and Turkey! I always felt very lucky.. thanks Dad for working for an oil company!
Those skewers look tdf… I will definitely be trying them soon!
Love the old pics, and the bread! looks great. I miss our yearly vacations- they were perfect for spending more time with my bro:)
We took a lot of trips to Florida and Arkansas to see family when I was growing up. Those are some pictures that need to be burned!
My knee starts to ache when it is going to rain too, totally sucks. And sometimes, if the weather is going to get really bad, my collar bone will ache from where I broke it in 1st grade.
And that cinnamon chip bread is the best! We got a loaf last weekend when we were in Des Moines and just tore chunks off for breakfast in our hotel room. Yum. Have you tried the cinnamon chip pecan scone? We got one of those to share – one of the best things ever.
Hi Kristin your dinner looks delicious! Random question for you I am thinking of cutting my hair short (around your length). Does your hair bother you at all when running? That’s the only thing holding me back! Enjoy your time away this weekend :)
No it’s fine! I just pull the sides up in a half pony. Not the cutest, but it does the job! ;)
That Hawaiian chicken looks excellent! I love family vacations! We’ve been up to Mt. Rushmore and Niagara Falls in Canada. My favorite place was Duluth in Minnesota. Its a great city in a beautiful area. I really really want to go back.
um yes, i too did JM’s 30ds and holy pain!! my (before) perfectly healthy knee was destroyed by that workout.. it took months before things were semi-normal but the pain always comes back after a few days of running.. hope your knee has better luck than mine!! :)
We took so many family vacations: San Francisco, Florida, Caribbean cruise, Hawaii, Yellowstone, Boston, NY, Washington DC, Canada….such great memories! If we have a family I hope to take them on the great trips I was fortunate enough to go on!
Thanks for cooking with us….hoped you liked it! Umm, Justin looks like a giant in these pictures….we especially like his 311 shirt. Ha! Dave did the 30 Day Shred for the first time this morning and his arms are sore already. I, on the other hand, had to go the yoga route today because I needed a break from “angry” work outs!
As far back as I can remember we took a family vaca every summer, and thinking about it now is sort of suprising cuz we did not have much money growing up! Usually one or both of my Grandmas would go along too. I can recall stocking a cooler with bread & lunchmeat and eating at little roadside parks, which are a thing of the past now! The furthest we went was California, had to borrow an aunt & uncles car for that trip cuz it had air conditioning! Ha! Fun times & great memories!
love the family photos!
i went to disneyworld a few times as a kid, and i cringe looking at the pictures! lol. the 80s and early 90s were the worst to be a kid–fashion-wise.
