Another Birthday

The fall, in general, is a popular time for birthdays in my family and October is no exception! The latest celebration was for my husband, and he was lucky enough to have the day randomly off of work.  We kept it pretty low key, but did decide to go on a hike up the Kuli'ou'ou Ridge Trail.  It's a beautiful trail that climbs roughly 1800 feet in 2 miles.  It was an awesome hike and totally worth the somewhat steep (at times) incline.  I took a few pictures and thought I would share :) 

Made it to the top!

2000 feet above sea level

See those tiny houses in the valley way in the distance?
Yea, that's where the car was...
 Awesome, right?  But, as you know, no birthday and no blog post would be complete without a card ;) 


 I kept it pretty simple with this one.  I used Avery Elle's The Man stamp set for the majority of the card.  The "cheers" sentiment is from Paper Smooches' Birthday Sampler.  


Thanks so much for visiting!
