So True




Your Hair Should Be Brown



You are an intelligent, well respected person.

You are very confident. You take yourself seriously, and other people take you seriously too.



You are a good leader, and you can be trusted with someone's life.

You motivate people well, and you command respect easily.



You are competent, successful, and organized. You can't stand chaos.

Some people mistake you for being cold, calculating, or elitist.

I am still new at this and am trying to work out the kinks so if you have problems posting let me know so I can make sure I added your name to the list :)

THIS IS PRETTY COOL



Sorry if this video is a little grainy, but hopefully you get the idea. We saw this grass on one of our stops and it literally closes up when you touch it- check it out. Shyanne loved this and hey who am I kidding so did Nathan and I. We did this for about 15-20 min. I know, I know we're easily amused :)

Day at the beach


Shyanne being silly

Being silly again

We had so much fun this day! We went to the beach with my BIL's, SIL, my niece and 2 nephews. The waves were a lot bigger and harder today so Shyanne just stayed on the beach and played w/ her little cousin who's around her age. She found this swim mask in their bucket of sand toys and asked me to put it on. As you can see she kept it on the whole time and had the cute little imprint of the mask on her face after we took it off :)

Lei Making

Stringing Plumeria flowers

The finished product

Happy customer!

Flowers of Hawaii

This is a Plumeria flower. They usually make leis out of them.


I think this is a Hibiscus flower.

This one I think is called a Hollyhock.

This flower looks pretty awesome. Our friend, Duane, told us it is the Passion Fruit flower.

Random Ramblings about Fall

I love all of the seasons, but I think if I had to pick one Fall would be my favorite. The hint of a cool crispness in the air and the leaves changing colors to bright reds, yellows and oranges. Sigh... now if only I lived somewhere where this actually happens! I want to see and feel what Fall is like in other parts of the country especially back East. But, I digress... along w/ the cooler temps. and colors I love the decorations of the pumpkins, scarecrows, etc. and knowing that the "holiday season" (to me it's Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas) is coming soon. What is your favorite season?
