Anniversary #4

Adam and I have been keeping ourselves pretty busy lately, so I'm just getting around to catching up on the blog. Adam started the new school year in the middle of September. He is taking Biochemistry, Physics Lab, Genetics, Pacific Natural History, a 1 credit research lecture, and auditing Spanish, so he's in the library a lot (or he should be). He's also still working at McDonald's but not as many hours as before.

I'm still substitute teaching, but on the days I don't get called, I babysit my friends' 8 month old daughter. I also just started a new position at the aquarium as a docent. I basically teach groups of kids in the classroom then take them out into the aquarium and teach them some more stuff. On top of that, I just got a position as an assistant coach of the BYU-Hawaii softball team. It's just volunteer, but the new coaching staff is awesome, we have some really good players, and we're expecting to go pretty far this year.

Okay, now for some pictures.



Adam and I just celebrated our 4th anniversary on Wednesday. When his parents came, they went on a catamaran trip in which they went snorkeling and were supposed to see some dolphins. Since they didn't see any, they were given return tickets that they gave to us, so we decided to use them on our anniversary. It was a really nice day. They actually took us to one of our favorite spots, Electric Beach. On the way back, we saw a big pod of Hawaiian spinner dolphins that swam right in front of us.



They made us wear those gay life vests if we were going snorkeling.



After our catamaran trip, we ate dinner then went to the Polynesian Cultural Center to go to the Haunted Lagoon, a haunted canoe ride. It was fun. That's about all with us for now.

Catching Up

It's been a couple of months since our last post, so here's some catching up for us. Adam turned 26 on October 25th. I threw a party for him and made him a special Monopoly cake upon his request. We also made pizzas, since that is Adam's favorite food.



Then was Halloween. Adam and I dressed up as Zack and Kelly from Saved By the Bell. I'm sure you can all guess who's idea that was. This is the only picture I took, but I'll post more of that when my friends send them.



Last week, Kahuku High School's football team (that's the local school that I work at) made it to the state championships, so we went to watch that at the University of Hawaii's stadium. Kahuku is kind of like Texas when it comes to football, so it was pretty exciting, even though they lost.



Other than that, we've just been doing a lot of babysitting Leo, our neighbor's kid, and getting ready for Christmas. I hope you all have a good Christmas.
