i'm addicted

So Friday night Whitney and Greg came up to the GR and we had a fun little bbq. In the course of our conversation Whitney brought up this website called http://thepioneerwoman.com/ that she loves. I had to see what all of the hoopla was about and I am now officially an addict. I am so addicted that I am sneaking reading her love story while I work. When my boss comes around I quickly change the screen so it looks like I'm actually doing something. This is bad...this is very bad

I spent 3 hours yesterday reading her story and my entire lunch break today and those little snippets when my boss is not looking.

I love it because her husband reminds me so much of Andrew :) and it's super sappy and mushy. I'm so glad I'm married to a cowboy.

Plus she has recipes, giveaways, photography tips and tons of other things on her website. I dare you to not become addicted.

Andrew and I are back to the real world. We both had a wonderful time and Andrew even brought home the pot for the biggest fish. I'm so proud of him.

aloha oe

my time here is finished. our plane is delayed until 12:45 tonight. i will miss the turtles, sunsets, family, ocean, food, people and flowers. i have sand in every nook and cranny and i don't want it to go away. saw some turtles snorkling yesterday, none today. too many people.

aloha oe maui,

until we meet again.

don't hate me because i'm beautiful

actually, don't hate us because my friends...summer has almost begun. I know it's august and summer has been in full swing since june but i have been taking summer classes and andrew has been working all summer. we're so lame and so grown up.

My summer officially begins in about one hour after I take my final american sign language test at 5 and tomorrow i am off to hawaii. yes, i did say hawaii. sadly andrew isn't coming with me because he has to hunt for the winter food in alaska with his dad and his brothers on sunday but somebody has got to do it so we can survive this coming season.

i cannot tell you how much we need this.
