Goodbye 2019! Hello 2020!
Great week this week with the kids off school and very little work for me. Some highlights:
Super fun beach playdate (and picnic)
We made a cake for New Years that was sooo ugly…until I turned it into a “monster cake” (lol) (it did taste delicious regardless of looks)
Kids deciding on the order of the fireworks…we did them in the street with the neighbors…fireworks are a big thing here for New Year’s Eve…
Beach on New Year’s Day with Zo doing great snorkeling (and Jeff watched the kids later in the day and I got a nice surf session in)
A day on the other side that was meant to be the aquarium, but my discount card was expired so instead we did the sugar museum (cool), the Kahului bird sanctuary (not so cool, pretty industrial actually although good those wetlands have been set aside for the birds…) and Heritage Park in Wailuku (also very cool, want to go back). Kids were also working on their homework intermittently, like in the gas line at Costco…
Jui Jitsu competition class
Star Wars, yay!
And the grocery store was just decimated by tourists lol…
I also got a couple new swimsuits (yay!) and had such a fun night out with a friend of mine
And Jeff got me a ukulele for Christmas and the kids and I have had a great time strumming on it…the sound is so Hawaii isn’t it?
Tomorrow (Monday) is the last day of break and looking forward to spending it with the kids…we’ve also got Jui Jitsu and gymnastics starting up again so won’t be quite as leisurely as we’ve been having…the break has been so wonderful…and I’m also excited to get going on 2020!
Happy Sunday!
XO
