Busy Times



This is a picture I took from the balcony of a hotel on the island on one of my field trips. Yup, that's right I go on field trips. Since I am studying tourism and the hospitality industry, and Hawaii is a major tourist destination we go on field trips to various hotels and such. This hotel here had a great view of the ocean and even had a lagoon with 6 dolphins! This Wednesday I am going to another hotel.

As many of you know it is March and in our family that means basketball. Not only did Kasey and I fill out our annual bracket but this year the BYU-Hawaii Seasiders not only qualified for the Division II tournament but they hosted the first three rounds. We went to a couple of the games and had a great time. This is Ady hanging out with her good friend Lauren. It was my first time going to a sweet sixteen game in any collegiate level. Our Seasiders lost by one point but we had a great time. The competition was very good and all the games were pretty intense.
Aside from field trips and basketball we have been very busy. Kasey has been working long hours and usually comes home just in time for me to go to work. This weekend however She worked late Friday and all day Saturday so we didn't even get to see much of each other then. Ady is finally really making an effort to talk intelligibly. She is now saying the "2" when she counts to 3 and now even calls me dad not mom. The last one has been really nice. Now I don't get all the weird looks when we are out in public.

Get to live in Hawaii and go on field trips . . . I don't think that is really fair.

hawaii is just all around good about field trips....
i remember we would go on like 1 field trip every month when we were in elementary school there. utah is lame about field trips....only like 1 each year....
mom and dad should have taken that into consideration when they decided to move.
maybe i dont remember very good....but that's what i remember

Not only were you limited to the 1 field trip a year when we moved back, but the youngest two missed out on the week-long Big Island field trip. Daniel was especially upset because it would have been the next year for him. Yep, there are lots of cool things about living in Hawaii.
