Parents Visit

So my pictures go backwards here.. But we went out to dinner to ROYS (my FAV) or should I say my parents took us to Roys for their 11th year anniversary dinner! ;) Here was my dessert! A painters Pallet of sorbets!

Mom and Kenneth opening a little gift from our friends Bonnie and Mark

We went out to Ko'Olina Marina and saw the Black Pearl from the film Pirates of the Caribbean! It was really cool to see it up close and all the details! It was getting dark out quick so not too many pix!



Hanging on the beach in Waikiki at night!
Lunch at a yummy restaurant in Chinatown
Our pork came out on Fire! Literally sitting ON fire! It was GOOD!

We did some fun things we went to the Vietnam and Korean War memorials
We walked by to see the Capitol
We went to the Iolani Palace its where the King and Queen lived before the US took over. It was actually really interesting! I enjoy it alot!

We went to the Waimanalo Beach where my ward goes every Sat to Bbq and play beach volleyball!
Here is Olga, Amber, me, Brea


Da Guadians! ;)

Here we were starting the Manoa Falls hike where I then broke my camera! ;(


I had an AWESOME time while my parents were here! It was such a last minute flight for them to decide to come! Im so glad they had time to take off work which is RARE sense they both own their own business'!
Thanks so Much for everything! We miss you both so much already!

Worm/ Update

It has been a couple of BUSY weeks! First off our computer has a major worm/trojan virus! We can barely use it and when we do its in SAFE mode! So lets hope we can get that fixed! We would be devastated if we lost everything. And we cant afford to get a new laptop at this point! Second, My parents were here visiting and we were hiking Manoa falls last week and I slipped in the water at the water fall and I had our camera in my pocket and I full on got drenched!!!! So no pictures... prob not for a long time too...I cant go buy a new camera just yet..that's like my third one of the year! Whoops!

Update on Chan....
He is SO busy with school and homework it is not even cool! I don't think its fair on me ;) When I get home from work he is straight to the computer for the rest of the night! He can only take 10 min to eat dinner and then he's back at the books. So I cook dinner so I can get some attention! Anytime there's food involved Chan is THERE! He has run into a few problems with his schedule for next semester and classes that interfere with practice in the morn 8am-10. He is staying on top of that with his counselors and Deans to make sure he can still graduate in May. If not we might be here for one more year. Hopefully the school works with him to arrange the classes he needs this semester! Its been very frustrating for Chandler to work out the kinks I guess that's what happens when Chaminade is a private small college. He's willing to do anything on his side of it to get done. Now its up to the school to do their part to make professors do Independent studies or something. He is working his tail off at school and in practice. I don't know how he does it and stays so focused and at this point has straight A's taking 21 credits! He broke his finger a few weeks ago and was out practice for three weeks. The day he got released to play Chaminade had their first game against University of Hawaii (big fun game) Chandler had an awesome game for being out for that long! Then last week the team traveled to Seattle Wash. to play two D2 schools up there that are ranked number 1 in their own D2 devision. Chaminade came home with two W's! Chandler played 35 min in both games and averaged 11 points and 8 1/2 rebounds. He played well! Last night he had his first home game! We won 81 to 70.

I cant believe his season is already here! We are totally living this senior year up and enjoying every minute of his last college days!
My camera didnt take that great of pix. Here he is playing at UH
We had about 20 people from church show up to support Chan. It was AWESOME! Again thank you so much guys for coming! It means alot to us to have people come out and watch!
