Family Fun: The Hiking Edition

August 29th, 2010 · 4 Comments · Family, Hawaii, Photography

Friday we joined up with 3 lovely high school classmates that I haven’t seen since high school.  We met at the Makapu’u Lighthouse trail and walked a beautiful paved uphill route.  I am not sure exactly how long it was, but it was a good workout and I am quite thrilled the boys were able [...]

December 13th, 2009 · 6 Comments · Family, Hawaii, Holidays, Photography

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 [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]
