Two in one day!

Good Morning,

It's another beautiful morning on Maui!  I just took Mango for a walk and enjoyed watching the Zip Line tours get ready for a day of business.  Our neighbor passed us on the trail as she was heading up to feed her horses on her four wheeler, it makes me want to grab Dan and go for a Dirt Bike ride today.  Especially since we just had a few days of rain on the hills so there would be a ton of mud, which makes riding a lot of fun.

So I just sat down to write a blog because I know it has been a while since we last wrote one.  When I logged in I noticed that we had written a blog a couple of weeks ago and never posted it, so I just posted it. But because it was written a few weeks ago, I have to update some info...

Our cousin Amy's wedding was Awesome!  It was great to see a bunch of our family fly out from the east coast.  Most of you probably don't know this but my mom has a sister who has three daughters that are the same age as the three of us.  It was pretty cool growing up along side them, we always had buddies to hang out with at family gatherings and beach days.  Although the girls tell us now that we were a bit rough when we were younger, forcing them to swim, fish and do boy stuff all the time.  Oh well...  It was a lot of fun to hang out with them and dance the night away after the wedding.  All the girls looked amazing, especially Amy,) and it was truly a night to remember.  (Jarett looked good too, in case he's reading this.)

A big surprise coming from wedding week was that our Mom decided to move back out here to Maui with us for a couple of months.  It is always pretty awesome to hang out with Mom and we are a pretty lucky family that we all get along well enough to live together as adults.  I should be pretty thankful that Gwen is so understanding when it comes to all of this too!  Luckily we had an extra bedroom in the house that would could turn into Mom's room.  So far she's painting and getting used to walking big Mango.  She's a really good painter, I'll have to take some pictures of her work and post them some time...

Here's the really awesome news:  we got a new TV for FREE!  A couple of friends of ours were moving to a new house and were tired of their old TV that wasn't HD.  So they gave it to us, it's a huge 60 incher!  Perfect for our house, Dan already set up Mario Kart and we've had movie night several times.  It's pretty awesome.  Even Mom and Gwen are impressed with the lifelike size of the football players on sunday.

We might be heading to Indo again on a job, which would be cool.  Although there was just a huge earthquake/tsunami and I think there was even a volcano eruption?  So that might slow those plans down. But Indonesia is huge, i think all the bad stuff is over 1000 miles from where we were heading, so we can still hope.  It would be a lot of fun to get back underwater over there, it's beautiful.  If we do go, I hope we'll have some new pictures to share from the trip.  It is mostly a video shoot, but I'm sure we'll find some time to take a few shots!

Dan is in the kitchen trying to grow an Avocado tree in a glass, i'll keep you posted...

Gwen and Mango say hello too.

I'll talk to you soon.

Mahalo!
