From Thanksgiving to Christmas, it rained pretty much everyday nonstop in Portlandia; lucky for us, we found sunshine in the middle of the Pacific Ocean! We said aloha, dusted off our slippers, had breakfast at Cinnamon’s, met up with old school friends, and celebrated Christmas at the beach 🙂

Aloha ??⛱??

“Mele Kalikimaka is the thing to say, on a bright Hawaiian Christmas day, that’s the island greeting that we send to you, from the land where palm trees sway…” ?⛄?

Just days after Christmas at the beach, we rang in the new year in a true winter wonderland back in Oregon.

I love this photo because it captures the essence of this post with the juxtaposition of the Hawaii license plate and Oregon snow!

Even Petrolicious showed some love 🙂
