It’s been interesting packing for our trip to California. Oh, California how high maintenance you are with your unpredictable weather! We realized almost immediately we were going to need to bring a bit more than we were anticipating due to various events and work, but primarily due to the weather! It’ll be about 15-20 degrees cooler on average than it has been here in Hawaii, so it’ll be interesting to see how we feel when we’re there. No flip flops and bikinis for two weeks, what am I going to do?! 🙂

We’re very excited to head back and see our friends and family. We will kick off our trip with a wedding celebration in the Monterey Bay area with David’s family, Stacey will give my poor neglected hair some TLC, David can catch up with his friends and Cali coworkers, puppies will get ready for their move, I’ll close out another quarter-end with Callidus, shop Leti’s LLR boutique, and hopefully catch up with as many of you as possible!!

Yesterday my cousins Jason and Lizel came over and we spent the late afternoon fishing and showing them around our beautiful neighborhood. We’re trying to convince them to come be our neighbors! 🙂 Their pup Sylvester was my co-worker for the last bit of work and having him here made David and I so excited for my puppies to arrive! There’s just something about a dog’s spirit in a home that makes it complete for us. Sylvester is such an adorable little guy and he’s so energetic and happy. He’s a small black Yorkie and looks like a stuffed animal. I have to seriously try to not put his little paws in my mouth…he’s just too cute. Yeah…I’m weird.

Our flight gets in later this evening so we will be heading to the airport shortly! Aloha!
