Enjoy Every Single Moment

This was for a challenge to do a Project Life page which I don't normally do. I used some of my favorite quotes here... Enjoy Every Single Moment and Live, Love, and Laugh. I'll add some journaling about the day and trying to incorporate those quotes in my everyday life. This was a day at Maui hiking while on the 'Road to Hana'. We stopped at many places and it rained off and on all day. Some places were Kaumahina State Wayside, Waianapanapa Cave, Bamboo Rain Forest, Etc.
