The journey of Shane Eubanks and Crystal Alred
Decisions decisions…that was how Saturday got started. I wanted to go to breakfast at The Plantation House that I had heard so much about and Crystal wanted to lay out at the pool. Somehow I ended up winning and we went to breakfast! After we got there, I think she was glad we went because [...]
Wednesday & Thursday seemed like tough days to beat, but we gave it our best shot today. I’m currently sitting on the Lanai (back deck of our room) overlooking palm trees and tiki, torches while listening to a water fountain about 30 feet in front of me…it’s about 72 degrees out with a slight breeze [...]
Today we took an adventure down the Road to Hana, which is a road back into “old Maui†which is about 52 miles long with 617 curves with around 50 bridges…seriously. Many stretches of the road are one-lane and you have to be careful and yield to oncoming traffic. The road itself is an adventure, [...]
Our day began at the big time of 2:15 am. Yes, boys and girls, you heard it right. We were going to bike down the Haleakela Crater—one of the world’s largest dormant volcanos! We were picked up at 2:45 am and driven to the Mountain Riders place where we watched an informational video. We all [...]
Again, I woke up SO early this morning. I woke up at around 5:30 (10:30 back home) and made myself lay there until about 6:15. I got up and typed for a little while before Shane rolled out of bed. We got ready and went to the town of Napili to eat at the Gazebo [...]
We both woke up quite early, since we aren’t on “island-time†yet. We are five hours behind Georgia here, so that is taking some adjusting. We walked down to the concierge and booked the biking down the volcano tour and a sunset cruise. We walked around a little and took some beautiful pictures. We started [...]
I woke up pretty early with a case of the “Wedding Day Jittersâ€. I had been doing so good up until this point, but my tummy was just a fluttering! I tried to eat a little breakfast…(we’ll just say that didn’t stay down where it was supposed to) and then headed out to Melissa and [...]
November 2nd and 3rd were very busy days! On the 2nd, Shane and I both got started pretty early. He had to help my dad carve a whole bunch of pumpkins as we were using them with flowers for table centerpieces. I had to meet Brandy, Candy, and my mom at the Roselawn Carriage House [...]
I wish there were words to describe Maui, but Webster just hasn’t came up with anything close yet. This place is just INCREDIBLE. The smells are amazing. That may sound weird, but there is a scent of ginger in the air along with other flowers and it just smells soooooo sweet. We got to our [...]
Shane’s Wedding Experience WOW!!!! What a ride! I can’t thank everyone enough that came to the wedding and all of those that participated in it. It was an experience that I’ll never forget. People asked me all week long if I was nervous, but I never felt the “butterflies” until the doors opened at the [...]
Tuesday – October 10, 2006: Some of you may remember the “log” of events that I kept as I worked on Crystal’s proposal. It detailed everything I went through to create her special day. Well, I’ve decided to do it again leading up to her wedding day because I have a few surprises in the [...]
