Photos from My Helicopter Ride!

noreply@blogger.com (Rachel Follett) — Fri, 17 Feb 2012 22:05:00 +0000

I was very fortunate last week to go on a helicopter ride with my girlfriend Mandy. We went through Alex Air and they took us through West Maui and Molokai. This is something that I have wanted to do for a very long time. It was really amazing for me to see Maui in a whole new perspective and to see areas that you just cant get to by car.

All photos by me :)

Mood Board: Longing for European Travel

noreply@blogger.com (Rachel Follett) — Fri, 03 Feb 2012 21:36:00 +0000

After I put these images together I noticed they have this overall feel of European travel. I wish sometimes I could live somewhere central in Europe and take mini vacations over the weekend to countries like Italy, France, Germany, Spain and Switzerland. If you had a life like that what are some places you would go to for your weekend travels?

Two Pretty Spaces: A Touch of Green

noreply@blogger.com (Rachel Follett) — Wed, 25 Jan 2012 21:00:00 +0000

I love green accents with wood tones. These two spaces also have my favorite styles. The left has more of a vintage homey feel and the other has a really clean feel to it with mid century modern furniture. I want both. Which one would you choose?

Here are some pictures I have taken on my iphone (filtered in photoshop) in the last few weeks. I went on a whale watch on the boat my husband works on and it was a lot of fun. We also played disc golf at the poli poli course and the last two is Napili Bay on a cloudy day and a shot from our drive home from Costco. Enjoy! :)

Mellow Monday: Staying Organized

noreply@blogger.com (Rachel Follett) — Tue, 17 Jan 2012 00:08:00 +0000

Today is not so mellow for me but I hope it is for you! I really wish there was more time to do all the things I want to do. I have a lot on my plate right now and am trying my hardest to just get it all done. Staying organized is helping because I know if I am not then it will only be harder in the end. I just have to remind myself to take it one step at a time and take a deep breath. Here's to another busy week!

Looking Back 2011

noreply@blogger.com (Rachel Follett) — Mon, 02 Jan 2012 21:39:00 +0000

When looking back on the things I did in 2011 I realize I didn't do much as far as travel. I hope to change that in 2012. Here are some things I did manage to do. :)

Went on a mini vacation to Lanai

I got a tattoo!

Went on a vintage shopping trip to Oahu with my Mom and Larissa

Went to Hana for a camping trip on my birthday

Helped my mom make these beautiful brooch bouquets!


Played lots of disc golf and had to say goodbye to the course in Kapalua

Hoping 2012 is another great year!
