1 year!

Back on June 20th, Jeremy and I celebrated our one year anniversary. We spent the weekend in Waikiki at the Hilton Hawaiian Village.

Here we are on our balcony about to go to dinner!



My hot hubby


Dinner at Ruth's Chris...YUM!


They had rose petals on the table when we got there, gave us free wine, and chocolate covered strawberries! We recommend going here on your anniversary to get spoiled!

Our wedding cake topper. Thanks mom for wrapping it up so carefully and bringing it to us!

Friends!

Our dear friends Mel and Matt came to visit us at the beginning of June. Mel was friends with my brothers in college and we became best friends. We both married military men. So they spent a week out here enjoying the ocean! Here's a few pictures from their time here.

Yummy breakfast!


What a lovely view!

Enjoying cold drinks at the beach!

The rest of the visit

So to finish my parents visit...

During the week, mom and dad did some sightseeing.


We went to dinner in Honolulu and there was a beautiful sunset!




At dinner! Yum!




Hanauma Bay snorkeling!




That brings us to the end of the visit from my parents! Thanks for coming mom and dad!

Coming up next, Mel and Matt's visit!

A long time ago...MAUI!

Well I know it has been ages since I have updated my blog and I know my devoted readers are dying in anticipation! ha! It has been a whirlwind summer! I can't believe it is almost over and we will be moving soon! I will try to catch you all up to date so there will be several posts and pictures coming!

Starting where we left off...my parents came to visit back in May!

We had a wonderful time seeing my parents. I wish I would have had more time off to enjoy hanging out with them, but we had a good time. My mom cooked and cleaned and I feel like I hardly did a thing while they were here! Well I did cook once! It was nice.

Here's a picture of dad and I right after they got here! It is also a glimpse of our living room (which now has a huge photograph of the beach)

Right after they got here we went to Maui for a few days. Jeremy and I LOVED Maui. It was gorgeous and relaxing!

Parasailing was so fun!




Ziplining!

Next post...the rest of my parents visit.

Better Late Than Never

Here are some pictures from the last couple of weeks or so. Sorry I've been bad about updating. I'll let the pictures do the talking.
They start from the most recent and work their way back.

Here is Jeremy in his chucks.


Doesn't he look good?!


Here is my hair brown. Not a great picture but gives you an idea. It was actually darker than this and faded and since the picture it has faded a little more.


Here I am at the top of Diamond Head. It is a crater you can hike up. The hike is not that good, but the view on top is awesome.


Here's Jeremy on top. It was hot!


The view of the lighthouse.


We also went to the Queen's Palace. Also not the impressive.


Here's the picture of the laundry room I never posted.


And the other side. It's really big


This is the ghetto table our tv was on. But we have a tv stand now!


Our living room. It has since been updated some...


A day at the beach!






That's it for now! Mom and Dad come this week and we are going to Maui this weekend so we'll have more pictures soon!

Easter Week

It's been a busy last couple of weeks since I last wrote. I worked in Honolulu last week and had lots of early mornings fighting traffic. My training went really well and now I am working at the bank here on base. So far it is good, except sometimes it can be really slow and boring. I had the day off which was nice to sleep and relax!

Now for a bunch of pictures!

Here we are with the Easter bunny at our church Easter egg hunt!


We ate at Hard Rock Cafe one day...


This past Saturday we drove around the North Shore of the island. It turned out to be a nice day and we enjoyed exploring a little more!


Here we are at a bay we stopped at to eat lunch!


A "hidden" beach we found. It was gorgeous!


We also went to the Dole Pineapple Farm and went in the largest maze. Here we are lost.




Here we are at the end. We gave up and didn't find all the secret things we were supposed to find.


This is Easter Sunday. Jeremy is posing while I set up the camera.


In our Easter Sunday attire


One day when I came home from work, Jeremy surprised me with these beautiful flowers!


Last night as we were driving around, we saw this beautiful sunset!


And it just kept getting better and better! I wish I could of gotten better pictures!


That is it for now! Have a great weekend!
