Hawaii 2008

Ok, so I have been told that I have to post some Hawaii pictures so I will. This is a little late (we went to Kauai on Oct. 23) but better late than never. We went to Kauai with another couple and NO kids. I had never been to this island before so I was very excited. All in all though, I have to say it is not much different than Maui. Same stuff to do for the most part, just a little less commercialized. Anyway, we had a great time. We ate way too much (like always), watched way too much "The Office" (every second we were in the room "The Office" was on, even if we were just going to be in there for a few minutes), and got a little too little sun. It rained everyday we were there. It didn't rain all day, so we did get some sun, but it rained a lot.

Here are some pictures of all of the fun things we did. Thanks to Jamie and Shawn for watching our crazy kids, we love you guys.

Still My Latest Obsession

A couple of months ago I posted about my latest obsession, Red Mango. Well, it is still an obsession of mine and even more so after tonight. I was totally craving it so I went to get some and there was such a surprise there. They have a new, seasonal flavor: Pomegranate. NO artificial flavoring, NO artificial coloring, just straight pomegranate juice mixed into something that was already pure heaven. Now, I know a lot of you don't enjoy Red Mango (weirdos) but for those who do, you have to try this flavor. It is so yummy. But hurry it is only seasonal so you only have a couple of months to eat as much as humanly possible.

Silverman 2008

Greg decided to tackle the Silverman this year. He has done many triathlons and ran a marathon so I guess this was the natural next step. This race consisted of a 1.2 mile swim, 56 mile bike ride, and a 13 mile run. (Sounds horrible to me but I'm impressed that he wanted to do it). Well, we woke up the day of the race with it blowing wind and raining. It rains 4 times a year here and it happens to be on his race day, go figure. Anyway, the race was supposed to start at 8am and the weather made it postponed until 9am. I don't have pictures of the swim because I forgot my camera but here are some pictures of the rest. He did awesome and we are so proud of him.

We followed him around the city every step of the way, it was a long, fun day.

I love these guys.
