Receiving of the Surf Board

Since Chaminade University hosts the MAUI INVITATIONAL Tournament. A tradition that the organization does for the tournament to invite each school to Maui to play with Chaminade gives the teams(schools) a NICE individually designed surf board-(each worth over $5,000) So at Senior Night girls Volleyball game, the team received their SURF BOARD! It was really cool!

Here they are presenting it to the basketball team..Dancing it in to music and all!

This is Zach (Z-boe) with the board. He is THE NICEST guy ever! He is going to school to be an elementary teacher! He is one of my favorite on the team-very respectful!

watching the girls V game

This is a senior that plays volleyball- Courtney. She had a really good game! This is normal in Hawaii- to congratulate someone you give them a lei. She prob had like 50 around her neck from loved ones-senior night after the game!

BYUhawaii VS. UH

Chandler's Basketball tam wanted to go to the UH and BYU basketball game the other night! They wanted to see how each team plays and who they might be guarding when they have to play each team as well in the near future! The game was just down the street from our house at University of Hawaii. Their gym is really nice and BIG! Bus loads of BYU fans were brought down form Laie to Honolulu. All in the red...This is just a handful that were there of course. But they had great fam support! UH won the game! I think that Chaminade has better talent and handling skills! So hopefully they will beat both teams! (Ill let you know)


See their nice gym! It was fun to sit with all the Chaminade team boys and have a night out at a game!

Snorkeling

This fish was about two feet long and FAT. It was bright Neon colors but my underwater camera obviously doesnt do life under the sea justice!We followed this particular fish around everywhere we could!
This was when Meagan was here we took her to Hanauma Bay to snorkel! It was alot of fun!
Here is Meag again looking at me! ;)
Meag ...checkin out the fish!
Here;s our favorite fish again...
THis is Hawaii's state fish- I believe. It is called the Humuhumukununukuapua'a. I dont even want to try to pronounce it!


Chandler likes to not use his snorkel so he can go deeper into the water sometimes
Chan with the famous Neon fish

Gotta love how snorkel gear makes our faces look so pretty!

GO YANKEES!

Chandler was pretty happy the Yankees Won the World Series! I think what was most entertaining for me was to watch Chandler's Face and the reaction of ear to ear smiles he had once they won! It was very sweet! We watched the final game together Wednesday night and it was great to see them beat the Phillies!

GO YANKEES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HaLlOwEeN...

OKAY.... So Chandler and I unfortunately or fortunately didn't dress up for Halloween. However you want to look at it! LOL! Halloween in Hawaii is A BIG DEAL. Sadly for adults only though. Not very many kids get dressed up here or can even go trick or treating because it is all apartments and kinda hard or just not that safe or popular to go to the homes. But in Waikiki there are 100's and 100's of people dressed up. It is way too crowded to drive so we walked from our apt. LONG WALK.
Here we are with some Monster or whatever he is on STILTS..
YOU NAME IT...We SAW IT! Here we have Adam and Eve
mmmm... this is nothing compared to what we saw..

Our night was very interesting and full of entertainment, constant laughs, and pure fun. We enjoyed people watching. I could not believe some of the things people came up with. A few others I thought were funny that I didn't get a pic of was, a few local Hawaiians dressed as tourist with WHITE paint on their noses as SUNSCREEN it was funny, a pope with a devil- it was cute, lots of boys in diapers, jellyfish, the game "Twister"-girls, lots of older couples dressed up to walk around too crazy masks, a wooden puppet with strings attached, some risque next to nothing- who knows what they were,Michale Jackson's huge group as Thriller Dancers, Some dressed up as Michael Jackson holding a doll acting like they were about to drop a baby, I cant think what else but crazy stuff. along with all the Waikiki street performers. It was fun too because a few of Chan's teammates are not from the U.S. and they LOVED IT. They dressed up but too, were so amused by the whole experience and to see everyone
