The kitchen sink is for music, schools and the library + fun with friends
A few pictures and notes from the last few days:
- Luke loves sitting in the kitchen sink listening to music while I'm working...I used to love listening to music too, although for me it was records on my record player and he has Alexa and Pandora lol...when I ask him to go entertain himself this is usually where I find him. It's been interesting having no toys in the house. We've done just fine. We get our stuff Thursday and I'm afraid I overpacked. The things I'm really looking forward to having are some toys (but not all), vases and candles, swimsuits and robes, my yoga mat, the little dog door stopper that was my grandmas, a silver mirror that will go in the kids bathroom, a chair for my office and my printer, some throw pillows. It's just been really nice having a pretty empty, simple house. Want to keep this feeling...
- We've visited 2 of the 3 schools we're considering for the kids and got library cards and books! Yay! Everything is just so picturesque...the library is next to the harbor and fronts a surf break...we got there before it (library) opened and counted crabs crawling on the rocks and watched the surfers, some of which were Luke and Zo's age...
- We had Vanessa (a friend of ours from Grand Junction days) over for dinner at the beach the other night, and then her and John (a new friend of Jeff's) over for breakfast yesterday morning and then we all went to a new beach (up north, fronting the Montage) and snorkeled and boogie boarded...soooooo fun...and John came back with us and he's so great with the kids, we all loved having him here...
- We went with Daddy to turn on the generator last night at the temporary employee parking lot and saw the most beautiful rainbow over the Lahaina "L" and then we had Chinese food and came home and I read the last of the kids' library books and we did sleep tuck-ins...the view out Sissy's window is an expanse of moon and stars, so beautiful to fall asleep to...
- Today over to Kahului for breakfast, The Incredibles 2 (which we're all so excited to see) and then erranding at Target, Costco, etc.
- Starting to settle in and lose that nervous feeling I initially had that we are so very, very far from everything...
Happy Sunday!
