A million year old update...

Okay, many changes have happened since our last post. We moved out of our apartment for reasons we have no control over and moved in with some wonderful friends who were willing to rent out their extra room. We put all our stuff in storage and is waiting for the moving company to come pick it up next week. I am shipping one of our cars Friday to LA and other on the 30th to Florida. The Air Force has decided to send Kip to combat weather school at Keesler AFB in Biloxi, MS enroute to our next base. This is a 3 month school. They will not let him leave Hawaii till the first of January he has to report to school by the 5th leaving him no time to drive with his family from Ca to Ms. So I am left to picking up the car in CA and driving across the US with two children by myself. I am recruiting a couple of people to help and awaiting their decision. Did I mention that I will be alone in Florida for the first three months of living there, in a new place? Crazy, huh. Oh well, this will be another opportunity to be strong and to grow. Will update later pictures.

Laie Lady

We love to celebrate Halloween and in our house, we start planning in July. But this year we haven't done much for Halloween between closing on our house and making arrangements to move, we have been busy. But last night we finally scheduled in some Halloween fun and went to the Haunted Lagoon at the PCC in Laie. Last year was the first year they put on the canoe ride and it was pretty good, this year was even better. It is pretty creepy to be out on the water at night, it's really dark and works well for a haunted house. If only Tempe Town Lakes back home did something as cool as this.

The Hunger Games! Could this be better than Twilight?!?

So I know about six months ago I put up a post about The Hunger Games. Well the second book, Catching Fire, came out in September and it is awesome. I almost soiled my pants reading these books, they are crazy! I was thinking to myself, "Man if they ever made these books into a movie, it would totally blow the Twilight movies out of the water". Now don't curse me all you Twilight fans, I like them too. Well come to find out, they are making a movie out of these books in 2011 and there is still a third book yet to come out next fall. If you haven't read these books yet, do it.

Home

We are officially home owners again! Yay, I am ready to have a yard again, be able to park my car in front of my house (instead of a mile away) and put both of our bikes in the garage. We will miss the beauty of Hawaii and all of our friends but are ready to get off this rock. A couple more months and we will be on the mainland taking a road trip across the states to Florida, can't wait!

Time in Paradise can fly by fast

My parents have been here in Hawaii helping Kip and I out as I work. My mom has been a great help in watching my girls and cleaning my house (by her own choice, i don't like cleaning my own house). Anyway, it is already time for them to head back to the mainland after being here for a month and a half. I have stopped working and no longer in need of a sitter. But here are some pics of places we took them around the island.

Moving

For those of you who don't already know, we have received our next assignment and will most likely be reporting to our next station by the beginning of January. We are going to be stationed at Hurlburt Air Field in Florida. I think it is by Mary Esther or Fort Walton Beach about an hour away Pensicola and 6 to 8 hour drive from Walt Disney World. And probably two and half days of driving to Mesa. We most likely won't be driving home. So get ready, now you all have a new place to come explore and visit me. And a last chance to come to Hawaii with a free place to stay within the next 5 months. Hawaii you can come see dolphins and Florida you can see gators (i am sure they have dolphins there too along with water maccisins).
