We woke up early today to get Troy down to the ship on time, he had to be there at 6am! It was dark and the boys were sleepy. I got some substandard blurry pictures and we said our goodbyes. A quick drive-through McDonald’s and we took our breakfast down to Hickam Air Force Base [...]

We got word earlier this morning that the ship might delay the departure by a few days due to rough weather in the forecast. We waited anxiously today, hoping that we might eek out another day or so, but then the word came back this afternoon that tomorrow is the day. Troy will have to [...]

We’ve been considering getting a blu ray player to go with our living room tv. It wasn’t on a short list or anything like that, but we have been considering it lately . and then on Saturday our DVD player broke (and now the priority is moving up the list). I don’t know [...]

Honolulu City Lights

Last night we headed down to the Honolulu City Hall area to take in the Christmas lights. The first stop was at the Iolani Palace next door. (I can’t believe I forgot my tripod!) It is so beautiful every day, but especially so at Christmas time when the Palace and grounds are strung up with [...]

Aloha and Happy December to all of you lovelies out there! :)
Did you have a good Thanksgiving? I did! I made my usual bunch of pies on the day before… I always make custard pie, chocolate cream pie and pumpkin pie. But another thing that got me really excited? I got a few notes from [...]

Sunday was a very busy day, we took a little trip down to China town to buy lei for Troy’s homecoming and a little snack too. Our favorite Lei Store was called sweethearts back in the day and then re-emerged as Po’ohala a few years ago, same family, new name. I always go there to [...]

I really did intend to blog sometime this week, but wow, I really had a bunch of things going on, and thankfully none had to do with doctor visits. Well kind of… I did go in for TB clearance so I can chaperone field trips with Jordan’s class. You’ll be glad to know, I do [...]

This picture was taken earlier this week. This bowl is from a sally foster fundraiser last year or the year before, place mat from target. I was just struck with how well they went together. Probably why I was so drawn to the place mats in the first place, and I’ve only realized this now. [...]

The past few weeks we have taken to goofing off on Friday afternoons/evenings. This has, unfortunately, lead to spending most of the day on Saturday dealing with Jalen’s homework. This week, I decided that we would come home right after school and work on homework like every other weekday. Jalen finished his assignments, and that [...]
