Happy Anniversary, Honey! Thanks for the years together!
. . . and the kou tree said, “Your Darling Husband has been good and kind to you and me. I will provide the flowers from which you can string a lei for him on this, your wedding anniversary, day.”
Me and DH, who is my easel, at Kāhua Ranch in Kohala earlier this month.
Today, let’s make a lei, wear a lei, give a lei! May Day is Lei Day in Hawaii! This lei is strung kui style with yellow plumeria and orange kou blossoms from the garden. Aloha to you.
"Mommy tricked me. I came when she called "Walkies!" but she just wanted to give me a lei and have me pose. She even gave me a big smooch on my nose." ~ Alice Brown
