water, lights, and trains

Last weekend, we went to Wet n' Wild for Kammi's 7th birthday.  Bostyn had a blast going down the water slide with her new best friend, Kamryn.

On Sunday, Tate walked the Honolulu Marathon.  He does this every year.  Why?  Because he likes to torture himself.  Since he didn't train this year, I'm just glad that he was able to cross the finish line.  Every time my phone rings during the race, I get so worried that it is the marathon officials telling me to pick up my husband because he fell asleep at the bus stop.  At least he took a nice photo this year.

This weekend was much more enjoyable for all of us.  We finally decorated our tree on Saturday.

We then went on a trolley ride through downtown Honolulu and Waikiki.  It was a really nice night but just super crazy packed.  I think we will try the vintage firetruck or the Cinderella lighted carriage next year.  I think Bostyn will enjoy that more.

Today, we were swamped with a storm front that brought tons of rain all over the island.  We braved it anyways thinking that the mall wouldn't be as crowded.  It wasn't the rain that was the problem at Ala Moana, it was the partial power outage.  I told Tate that it was a good thing that LV and Tiffanys was open so he could pick out my Christmas present.  hahaha, no luck.  Just a train ride for Bostyn and a Nordstroms return for me.  Here is a picture of Bostyn on the train.  She really loves them but never smiles for us.

As for the digi scrapping world, not too much action for me.  I just got this Thanksgiving layout done with some super funny group shots of the kiddies.  I've been busy helping to babysit my little, high maintenance nephews who just invaded my mother's home.  Yup, they are those little boys in black in the layout below.

Have a great week and a very Merry Christmas to all my family and friends near and far.
