Dog sitting
Tim and Allyson went on a cruise last weekend and I was the lucky one that got to take care of their babies! Dora and Shelby are adorable chihuahuas that are only a few years old. I fell in love with them the first time I went to their house! We had a blast hanging out. We went on so many walks and Dora got to go swimming chasing after a duck! (against my will, of course!) I took lots of pictures, but here are a few:
Hawaii
So I know it has been about a month since my last post. I warned all of you who read this that I am not much of a writer, but I will do my best!
On March 13th we met with Jennifer (our Real Estate Agent), the builder, and his agent, to sign the purchase agreement on our house! It is official now. We are really going through with it! Now I just have to wait for ground breaking in June and I can get busy picking out all of the finishes.
On March 14th my family went to Hawaii for Spring Break. We stayed on the Island of Kauai (A.K.A. the Garden Island) This was by far one of my favorite vacations we have been on. Now that all of us have gotten older we can appreciate all of the more "active" things to do on a vacation. We went zip lining, did a helicopter tour, and spent 2 days on "jeep excursions" (as we liked to call it) around the Island. As much of a sun goddess I can be, I wouldn't have traded any of the activities we did for a few more hours of sun.
The Island was BEAUTIFUL! We stayed on Anahola beach, which is a public beach, but is so unpopulated that it feels private. The waterfalls, beaches, canyons, and just overall landscape was unforgettable! It truly was Paradise! (and don't worry... we had our share of "cheeseburgers in paradise")
The house we stayed in was HUGE! We each had our own bedroom and bathroom, with rooms to spare! It was the type of house that was perfect for entertaining. I hope one day to be able to have one just like it (it would be ideal to be on the beach, too!) hehe.
The last day we were there we visited Pearl Harbor. This was a very moving and inspirational memorial that everyone must visit!
It is always sad going home from a vacation. It flies by and before you know it you are reminiscing about the wonderful time we had and the memories we will share for a lifetime! Sure enough, though, it is back to reality.
