we have nearly 10 years of digital pictures on our external hard drives. We have two of them and the pictures are on both. I say nearly because i have had a few computer crashes over the years where I had lost months of pictures… but we are (knock on wood) in pretty good shape [...]

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 [...]

Have you seen that staples commercial? I don’t usually watch a lot of tv, but I caught a staples commercial the other day where a parent is back to school shopping, dancing around to the tune of it’s the most wonderful time of the year… I bust out laughing at that one. I’m sure I’ve [...]

Last Saturday we went to the Blaisdell Center to check out the Hawaii Collector’s show. I had read a story in a newspaper that there would be a group who dress up as storm troopers and other star wars characters would be there. Of course I kept that part quiet and just told the boys [...]
