it's been a while since i've updated. sorry for the delay. the holidays were so busy. kevin and i spent about 2 and a half weeks back home in hawaii for the holidays. i spent lots of time with my family and there was lots of food!
christmas was great; my last post was about all the awesome presents i received. here's my niece, emily jay, with her presents on christmas day:
she loved her bear and new hello kitty suitcase.
new year's was fun too. this past new year's eve was the last year that people could pop fireworks before the new law was enacted, so everyone on the island went NUTS, including our neighbors. we didn't really pop any fireworks, so we just watched everyone else's.
midnight is when all of the red chinese firecrackers came out. EXCITING!
now we're back in seattle and settling back in. more updates to follow!
