"It's My New House Mom, I Can Live Here Now!"

The other day I looked out the sliding glass door and there was Connor.... in the huge toy box outside, toys dumped everywhere. He told me that he was in his new house, and that he could live there. Hmmm.... wonder if anyone would call child protective services?!?

Dole Plantation - Hello Pineapples!!

Rocco's Bud

We've been watching our friend's dog, Grizzly, while they are away back East. He is such a good dog, but can't seem to resist Rocco's temptation to sleep 'in the good bed.' Go figure! Two peas in a pod....

Getting on the Ball... or Boat I Should Say

We just got around to putting the boat's name on it.... our friend Abbey thought of it months ago after we had bought it. At the time we just found out that we were not going to be buying a house in Virginia and that we were going to be stationed in Hawaii. So the name is quite appropriate, we thought.

Boys Projecting

Will and Connor started a new project a couple weeks ago... to build a new bed. Connor wanted to 'help' paint every chance he got. He actually got pretty good at it. And he decided he wanted 'fire engine red' too. Boy is it red! I have to say, they did a great job!! Now all we need is another mattress for the bottom trundle, and some curtains to go around so that he can make a fort :o)

Memorial Day Weekend - Part 2: Hickam Beach & BBQ

We rounded off our holiday weekend with a day at Hickam Beach where they had a beach festival for the kids. All kinds of jumpy houses and water slides. Then we BBQ'd at our place on Memorial Day with our neighbors. Doug made the fantastic punch drinks above, they were delish!!! What a great weekend!

Memorial Day Weekend - Part 1: KBay

Yesterday we went over to the sand bar in Kaneohe Bay with friends. What a great day... nice water, great weather, good eats (on the boat grill!), and good friends. Good times!

Happy Anniversary!

Yesterday Will and I celebrated our anniversary. The sitter came over and we headed down the street to Sam Sneads. Enjoyed a nice meal, bottle of wine, and dessert - all overlooking the golf course. What a nice, peaceful night out!

Good Times On The Boat!!!

Our friends Noelle and Bill told us about the sand bar over in Kaneohe Bay... lots of boats head out there every day. Everyone drops anchor, kids jump out and play, heck there are even people out there in their beach chairs & umbrellas! We went over yesterday and it was beautiful. Such a great time. This may be our new favorite hang out...

Disneyland

Will has been away for the last 5 weeks at ED Basic in Cali, so what better way to reunite than in Disneyland?!?! So we did... Connor had such a great time, and we got to spend 3 days there. Our friends, Katy and Tim, went up too and we got to hang out with them in SD before the big excursion. We walked some serious miles, but it was worth it :o)
