The Great Escape

I looked out the back door the other day and there is my child... with his slide up against the fence, yearning for the playground on the other side. He was having a whole conversation with himself, complete with the escape plan!!!

Rocco Puppydog!!!

We took Rocco over to the dog beach at Bellows to find some friends too... it was great. There is a huge area that is a sandbar, basically. The waves don't start for 100 yards out. So all the dogs run around and get their play time in too. I was a little nervous with Rocco's legs and all, but he behaved himself. Got a little exercise, but not too much. Connor chased the dogs too so it was a win-win :o)

More Beach Time at Hickam




The other day we went over to Hickam Beach with friends, since it was a holiday and all :-) Connor had a blast with his friend Caroline. And me, Jen and Stasia sucked up some sun and gorgeous weather.

Time Out for a Little Football.... in February!
































Friends of ours got us tickets to the Pro Bowl, so a bunch of us headed out to Aloha Stadium to see the best in the NFL on the 8th. It was sunny, warm, and we had great seats (thanks Jen!). The Pros were out in full force, as were the mascots and cheerleaders. Final score: NFC 30, AFC 21. GO NFC!!!

Boogie Boarding at Bellows

Last weekend we took a break from the unpacking & picture hanging to head out to the beach at Bellows AFB. It was gorgeous over there. Some clouds and wind, but still a nice day out. We also invested in a new, 'big boy' boogie board for Connor. It was certainly put to the test, complete with a wipe out onto the beach. I think Connor had sand in his hair/scalp for almost the whole week! He was not fond of the wipe out of course, but he did mention that the boogie board was 'awesomely cool.' I have a video to post as well but I need to put it together yet. Soon!!

Our New Home

FINALLY!!! YEAH!!! We are moved in at our new place in Honolulu, Hawaii. We totally got lucky and got a brand new place on base housing. It is fantastic! The downstairs is completely open so it's great for entertaining and hanging out, playing the Wii, etc. We have 3 bedrooms upstairs, 2 bathrooms, and a laundry room.. woo-hoo!! It really is a nice home and we are stoked that it's ours... for the time being. I'll be sure to take some more pics and update you all soon, promise.
