Electric Beach! :)

this was the smaller one that snapped at me.

Electric Beach is a nice beach if the surf advisory is low! We drove to the west side of the island...and snorkeled. it was sooo beautiful! the water is seriously so blue, and so warm.and clear.which is why we went there because the warmer water attracts dolphins! Which we did see a few jumping out quite a bit farther from where we were, but we didnt get to snorkel with any of them. there were too many divers and people there. But it was a beautfiul day on the hot beach and in the nice water! :) We saw a turtle the size of almost a car. It was crazy big! :) and another small turtle i was excited to see so i waved at it..and it snapped at me. Why does sea life hate me??? haha..anyways... We are excited to try this place again to see if we ever get to swim close to dolphins! :)

Beached Seals...

So far we have found two seals on the beach. Its so fun to start seeing all this sea life! living near the ocean is so different from living in a desert your whole life! I didnt get a picture with it, because it was fine with everyone else..but it must have known me.. because it barked at me as soon as i started getting close. so i was too scared! lol

Sacred Falls

Sacred Falls is an Illegal hike, but man was it BEAUTIFUL! Huston had class, and i dont have a job yet..so i decided to just go do this hike with a few of our friends. It was sooo worth it. i cant wait to do it with Huston! It was incredible. Your on a normal hike next to a stream for a while, and all of a sudden your in a canyon and you look up to this amazing water fall! I really enjoyed it. Even though its illegal..haha.. Its illegal i guess because i guess if it is raining there are rock slides in the canyon. ..:)

Ted's Bakery!

chillin on the beach.

ya...Hot!!!

Broken Fin!

not quite sure what was so funny! lol

ya thats our pork sandwhich! Awesome!

The following saturday after a really long friday we all just decided to literally spend all day on the beach. We started at turtle bay and ended back at north shore. :) it was so nice to just sleep on the beach all day however We got so sunburnt! Huston spent mostly all day out on his body board. the waves were so strong it ripped his fin off.. literall broke his fin. Crazy crazy. ..He also attempted Pipeline which was huge that day:) he grabbed an eightfooter and loved every second of it. :) He is so crazy, but he loves those big waves. haha.. Anyways..We finally got to try TED's! we have heard its amazing but we have never stopped to eat there. We got a BBQ pork sandwhich which was awesome:) and then we ate a slice of our friends pie which was great too! ya.. we loved it! ..:) Its a little north shore popular place where almost everyone stops to eat. its Always busy and we finally tried it! It was GREAT! :)

Lighthouse/Spitting caves

spitting caves.

Lighthouse lovin:)

Cool sunrise!

He was still alive after jumping. and i was happy!

Last weekend Huston had Friday off of school...So we headed at 4am to do the Lighthouse Hike! It was sooo beautiful watching the sunrise over the whole ocean, and it was a beautiful day:) The sea was so calm that we saw whales jumping up. Closer than i have ever seen them before, at least 5 of them. it was amazing!! After the Lighthouse we drove into town and Huston of course cliff jumped spitting caves. it was a 55 ft. cliff. The reason its called Spitting caves is because you have to jump at the right time or the current sucks you into a cave and literally blows you flying out. like its spitting at you. Its alot like a blowhole! it was pretty awesome. Huston Loved it...of course me being me..didnt jump because well.. do i ever? haha. it was such a beautiful LONG day :) but so worth getting up early because of the day we were able to have. I wander sometimes why i am not a morning person?? but then i wake up in the mornings...and realize why! haha. Anyways.. Hawaii is full of adventure, and we are loving it:) ...ps..yep i still need a job!

April Fools...

So... umm... last year for April Fools.. Huston was still on his mission...and i happened to write him a "real" dear john letter. I told him i met someone..and that it had not been very long but that i was sure i was going to spend my life with this person.. I didnt tell him it was an April Fools joke until the very very end of the email..as i went on and on about how much i still loved him for being my friend and you get my drift... it was legit!! I thought i was pretty good. I guess it really did kind of upset him though. but im not quite sure how someone could even write a dear john letter with only 3 weeks left of the missionary coming home. haha.. anyways.. Huston didnt like that very much. ..

So...this year... WE ARE MARRIED!(almost 4 mo. now) ....and Huston picked me up this morning from babysitting and asked me if we could go for a drive... ( i have no idea or trace of it being April fools day either)...He seemed serious... I was a little worried and i wandered why...but i said ya sure.. lets go.. so we started driving away, and he said "Ki, i really need to talk to you." .. in a more serious tone.. i said sure babe, anything. He started to say that he hadnt been going to work every night. he had been calling in sick.(he works nights) .. well where have you been going then? He then went on to say that he had been driving to the city sometimes and would go to the Clubs...he said he only went to one strip club but that he enjoyed it...and would probably be going back. My immediate reaction if you know Huston..he is a trickster.. so of course i thought he was LIEING... WTF??... he kept a serious face for a good five minutes.. and let tears almost roll down my eyes...once he saw the tears coming he started laughing.... ok ok.. so he got me good! .. I shouldnt have fallen for it.. but it was good!

i hate this holiday! i am gullable.. always have been..and usually dont pay attention to the day either.. haha ... oh well.. at least we are even!

ps. Happy birthday Grandpa Verl. it has been a very long time... but i miss getting GUM from you! its hard to believe you could supply GUM for your million and 2 grandkids... there was never a time i asked my grandfather for a piece of Gum and he didnt have any!... Keep jean in line, and tell Braiden i love him! His new brother in law makes his sister very happy! :)

Put the peices together.

We were given a puzzle for a wedding present! I remember the card saying something like its simple but to remember the simple things...they are important!! .... So we started doing this puzzle last night, and it was so fun! We talked... and did the whole outside of the puzzle and then started working on the middle of it. but we didnt get very far there... i got a little frusterated. But it was really fun to talk and spend the evening together. It was quiet and enjoyable! We both told stories of times we remember doing puzzles. Huston remembers doing them with grandma farnsie all the time.. and i remembered doing them on rainy days in lakeside, az with my cousins Shelly and Danny. What a blessing to do something so simple and enjoy it so much?? :)
