How We Met

First comes shave ice, then comes love.

It's August 11, 2018 and it's Puna's (Keala's grandmother) 80th birthday. All she wanted for her birthday was a party full of family, friends, music, and shave ice! Aunty Macy's (Keala's Aunt) co-worker, Patrick Tom, had a side business called Windward Snow Shave Ice, so it was a perfect fit for Puna's event! The day had ideal shave ice weather, sunny and hot! Keala was the photographer and noticed there was a boy working alongside Patrick. She walked past the shave ice tent and the boy said, "you walk everywhere barefoot." She replied, "I got tough feet." Eventually, she went to order a shave ice and the boy introduced himself, “Hi! I’m Austin”. He took her order for a red and blue shave ice and she was abruptly called away. She forgot about the shave ice and ran back quickly, where she found Austin holding her melted shave ice in hand. They spoke briefly and eventually he asked for her number. Who knew just a few seconds of bravery could lead to a lifetime of happiness.

For all the days along the way
