Happy Halloween!!!


Happy Halloween Everyone! We had a great night. We started off by taking Tosh to the Mililani Town Center and going around to all of the stores. Then we went to our church activity- Trunk-r-Treat. All the trunks of the cars were decorated and Tosh collected a lot of candy. Well, since he doesn't need it, I'm sure Scott and I will eat some of it and the rest I will make leis out of.
One lady was dressed up as a witch and he HATED her costume. Every time she tried to put candy into his pumpkin, he would grunt and quickly pull his pumpkin away from her. Too funny! She did look quite creepy though.





Tosh & Mahea
Called to Serve?










After trick or treating Tosh and Scott were exhausted! Tosh loved the monkey suit to begin with, but by the end of the night we couldn't get it off quick enough.

Family Time!

So we haven't updated in a few weeks because my parents came into town for 2 weeks and we have been staying at the beach house with them. :) We had a blast! We also have news to share-Steve and Deborah had their baby! It was a surprise (they didn't know the sex) and he is beautiful! Magnus Leif. Can't wait to see him in December.

The first week my parents were here, I had to work until my usual 11:30- but the second week, we had our Fall Break and it was fun having outings.
Here we are at Ko'olina. This is a great beach for Tosh and so pretty!









I got my dad on a board and taught him paddling basics- he even sat on the board, but there were no waves big enough to catch- yet. They will be here soon! He did very well for his fist time and this was a short board. *Falling off! OOPS!













After our paddle session! My next toy I want is a stand up paddle board. That will keep me in shape.





We hiked Kaena Point. It is a 7 mile hike to the North Western most tip of the island. It was a good hike- we stopped and swam in a little bay for about 45 minutes to cool off. There were a lot of Jeeps and trucks off roading. This is the view of Yokahama Bay from the point. It was beautiful.



Here is Tosh as we are getting ready to go out to dinner. We had many great dinners! He looks so polite in this picture.


Scott didn't get to do much with us during the day because he had to work, but when he got home he surfed, kayaked and played with Tosh.














I couldn't resist putting up this picture~

New Baby!

I made it a goal to update once a week and have not been doing a very good job! Wanted to say congratulations to my sister in law Jessie they just had baby #5! Cory and Jessie are super parents! They have a beautiful family and delivered a healthy, beautiful girl- Avory (don't know if the spelling is correct)



Scott has been on Lanai for a few nights now and it is pretty lonely around here. Tosh and I are keeping busy by going to the park everyday and the beach a couple times a week. I also planted a garden! I know what you are thinking, it is the middle of September, but that is the great thing about Hawaii, you can plant whenever you want! Last time LeRoy dug up my garden.

He looks so innocent, but he steals bathing suits (sorry Bec!) and is quite sneaky.


Tosh my little chiller! He loves to run at the park, but
has been known to gain too much speed and biff it from
time to time. Happy to report there have been no serious injuries!

What's that smell?!?


So, maybe some of you moms out there can relate to this story. But, if you are lucky, you can't! I was shopping at Safeway a few days ago and when I was just about done, Tosh started grunting-and that only means one thing-dirty diaper!! So, I very nonchalantly go about my shopping, seeing that I only have 3 items on my list. I am grabbing a can of cream of chicken soup and realize this has gone full mass! He smells terrible and the man with the kart next to me gives me this "eye". So I quickly move on to getting the milk and I lucked out-no one around. Last thing on my list is the cereal- oh crap! This is a very busy aisle and it was! Luckily no weird looks this time! I get to the check out and the lady in the check out line to the right of me turns around with a disgusted face and says "Whoa, it smells like rotten milk!" So I decide the cats out of the bag and let her know that it is Tosh's diaper. She was very embarrassed. Next, the bagger boy comes over and asks if I need any help-do I ever!

Can someone so cute smell so badly? The answer is YES!

Labor Day


So, we finally have a blog!! We had a great 3 day weekend. Saturday was of course a beach day. :) On Monday our church holds a Family Fun Fest. They have rides, food, bands and tons of people show up. This was especially fun because Tosh was finally old enough to go on the rides and walk around with all the kids. To cool off we headed to the beach house for the later part of the afternoon. Tosh is so lucky to be growing up at the beach!

Here is Tosh with his first cotton candy! He loved how soft it was.

Tosh and Scott playing at the beach. Tosh is fearless-he doesn't ever want to get out. He is our little water baby! Scott can't wait to get him on a board- whoa tiger! He needs to be a good swimmer first!
