paul wanted to eat his coconut…
paul wanted to go find some famous skateboard spot thats been in lots of movies called “wallows” its some drainage ditch in hawaii kai. It was fun but deadly for me and kev…
i sliped in the mud and because i was holding 2 cameras had no hands to brake the fall and went knee first into the cement. ugh it still kills almost a week later. the healing knee looks worse then this picture…
kev busted his hand in the same spot, boy wet mud flip flops and cement is a deadly combination…
amy doing yoga at the lookout…

AMY AND PAUL ARE COMING NEXT TUESDAY

So last week at school i decided was dinosaur week and we did a bunch of projects involving dinos. ONe day I decided to make ice paint. You mix water and paint and then pour it in ice cube trays and freeze them with popscile sticks. Then the kids can use them to paint with as the melt. They painted all over paper plates and then we turned them into dinos. Anyways they loved it and I think they all came out so awesome. I was very impressed…

not only was i married for 7 months yesterday BUT i found in the store a hawaiian ice cream company that sells chocolate popsciles (NOT FUDGE POPS) in a box!!!! This will sound crazy but this finding makes living in hawaii double in goodness. My mom, amy and carrie will know what this means to me. That was always a reason why i wanted to move back to canada- coffee crisp and chocolate popsciles but now i can just enjoy them here!!! So exciting!
so i dont know why we havent gone before it only costs us 4 bucks and its a sweet zoo. We had such a great day there we even saw one of the kids from my class with her family where the mom told me the little girl always asked if she can wear handbands like mrs. richardson-haha the mom said i guess she likes your style. After we left the zoo we got some ice cream and sat on the beach. It was awesome!
how often to you go the zoo and see 2 turtles mating, it was weird and creepy and funny all at the same time, but we couldnt help but take a picture…

these monkeys were swinging like crazy, it was hilarious to watch!
i was trying to ride the goat, he wouldnt have it though
doesnt this look like a scene from the lion king, zebra, giraffes and orstrichs all together in one shot…
the goat wanted a taste of michael jackson
these bird were terifying, one was even carrying a dead chick head in its mouth, did it kill its baby?
we were lucky enough to get to baby sit cody the other day. He has to be the cutest little boy in the history of little boys. I think he is like 17 months. anyways he is also the smartest little boy jenni has taught him a bunch of sign language, its adorable!
haha best face ever!

my grandma and grandpa came to stay with us over christmas and it was awesome!! I love getting to see them!
These I think are by far the best pictures ever…

does any one else get reminded of being john malkovich by this picture. The parking garage that we were in had half floors i dont really know how that works it was just another floor, but it was like i was in an elevator and had to hit the stop button and crow bar the door open to my inbetween floor.

LAURA’S HAVING THE BABY!!!! LAURA IS HAVING THE B-A-B-Y!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
can people please post comments when they read the livejournal- even if you just sign you were here because we always feel like no one ever looks at this… we will promise to reply to you if you write something to us.
Thank you!
here is a better picture to tell the size of the waves, check out the size of the surfer compared to the wave…

so the other day we heard that the biggest swell yet was coming in up on the north shore and the waves were going to get as high as 30ft. So up we went along with half the island and although we sat in traffic for awhile and all crowded on the beach in a small section because pipeline was closed…. it was awesome!!! The day before we went up as well with hilary justin jenni toby and cody and hung out on the beach for the day. Kev and toby decided that they were going to go boogie boarding in pipeline. This is the beach that is world famous for the largest waves… anyways me and jenni were scared to death watching them. The waves were by no means small- they were huge. It was terrifying.

We came back just in time for Erics birthday and we were lucky to get to go out with everyone and brew some beer for his birthday. I had never been to deja brew but thought it was alot of fun!

One of the best things we did at home was have our annual christmas party. This year was a 1920’s murder mystery party!!! It was so awesome, we had such a great time and everyone was dressed so great!!! We had so much fun. Thanks to everyone for participating! We had about 40 people at the house.
P.S The Photos are taking by Erin Stauffer (thank you they look amazing my dear!)

It was an awesome night when we got to go to the bruins game with my entire family (well not amy sniff sniff). I brought the canadian pride as well and many evil stares when i would wave my little flag. I will say the bruins won and my dad got a cup of beer spilt on him. hehe it was alot of fun.

so our vacation home went lightning fast. i cant believe we are already back here in hawaii. Well we had an awesome time home. We got to spend some time with family and friends and did a lot of fun stuff in 2 jam packed weeks. By the end i was completely exhausted and sick. haha within the first day i already had a stuffy nose and chapped lips. We got to spend some time with erin and mike out at their apt. in sunderland. We had a great time… me, mike and kev even went up to vermont and went snowboarding for the day (even though there was no snow there either). We had an awesome time!!!
