Aloha from Hawaii!! Sorry it has taken so long to get pictures up but we have been so crazy busy this past week!!! House hunting and car hunting were a bit of a challenge with two little ones..adding to the difficulty we had absolutley no clue where anything was..thank goodness for the GPS and She even got us lost few times! Lets just say mommy and the GPS don't get along to well:)..no need for any explanation:) It is a little difficult to find stores when they are located inside parking garages!Yes, parking garages...I guess they have to build up cuz of the lack of land so why not build a parking garage around your store...the GPS does not do well with this:) So needless to say we have learned if the GPS takes us to a parking garage...we just park and sure enough the store is inside somewhere!! Well we ended up getting a house on base...they call it a "historic" home which I believe is the nice way of saying OLD! It may be ancient but is in the most beautiful neighbor hood. We are about 100 yds from the banks of Pearl Harbor and the trees are like a huge canopy across the roads...I will post pics soon:) There is an awesome running trail along the water...we go every morning and run and at the end of the trail we stop and feed the fish which Sam loves! The neighborhood definatlely makes up for the "historic" house:) Eric purchased a sweet little camry - 95' with only 45000 miles! I must admit I am pretty jealous...thankfully he told me I can leave the mini van in Hawaii cuz he is taking his car back when we move again..YIPEE! Life in Hawaii has been pretty good so far...it is sure gonna take some adjusting to this lifestyle...but I think we can handle it????? Say lots of prayer our household goods arrive quickly!!
The boys and their first lei's...they smelled sooo good...We were greeted at the airport by Eric's co-workers and Eric's past bosses wife...So we got lots of leis...Sam even got a candy lei!
After a week of running around trying to find a car and a house we had the weekend to enjoy ourselves and do some sightseeing however the weather didn't really want to cooperate. It temperatures were great but it was super windy and really rainy up in the mountains...the pictures don't do this place justice...this place is absolutley amazing hopefully it will be sunny this weekend so I can get some good ones!
The sun did come out Sunday so we hit up the beach on the base.
Hmmmmm..should I eat it or not???....yep I will...Jack was a little stinker at the beach, all he wanted to do was eat the sand...he did enjoy splashing in the water but he usually ends up passed out in the stroller...I guess the sound of the ocean puts him to sleep:)
Pali Lookout....We were jsut out for a cruise and drove by this look out point...it was really pretty but the cloudy rainy weather didn't do well for pics....it was a bit chilly up there!
I took these from the car....traffic is so bad it is a little hard to "pull over" to take pics:)
These are pics from Kailua beach...it is supposed to be the #1 beach to visit...it was beautiful but the day we went the wind was so strong it made the water really choppy, you can still see how pretty it is...I am just looking forward to going back on a nice calm day so we can enjoy the crystal clear water!!
Sam loves the "Bich" as he calls it:) He is a little fish and has no fear...he jumps and swims around...oh and he loves rolling in the sand which drives daddy crazy...he has a sand phobia I think:) He thinks you should be able to go to the beach and not get sandy!!
This is a pick along the running trail along Pearl Harbor behind our house...It is pretty cool to watch the big ole submarines and Navy ships come in...I would take pics but they have police boats that drive up and down making sure people don't take pics...I really don't want to end up in jail so if you want to see them you are gonna have to come visit!!
Check out his little "moobs" haha!! Sam is a little goofball - anything to get a little attention!
