I Love You, California!

This weekend is our last full weekend together until the weekend of Christmas (how do we get so busy?!) so we had to go out and get our tree ASAP! Also, they're predicting a Christmas Tree shortage on the island, so we didn't want to miss out. We went down the hill to our neighborhood City Mill and loved the first one we saw! We strapped it on to the Jetta and brought it back home. It rained all day long so I just pretended that it was snow : ) Now it really does feel like Christmas! Rory has been loving the Christmas decorations!

You can probably infer from the lack of posts lately, with the exception of work related events, that October and November has been a lot of work and not so much play. We did get to Lanikai one day, but it was chilly and rained so we didn't stay too long. So we were so excited to have our good friends Joe and Paola and their adorable kids come visit for Thanksgiving! They spent the last week on Maui before coming to O`ahu today. They stopped off at their hotel then headed over for Thanksgiving dinner. We enjoyed a wonderful feast together. On Friday we took them to the North Shore to see Will's orchard and visit Waimea Valley and swim in the waterfall. We had a nice dinner at the Moana Surfrider and enjoyed watching the sunset. We even caught the tail end of the Waikiki Holiday parade!

This morning Will filmed another T.V. show! This time it was "O`ahu County News with Senator Gil Riviere." He spoke about TerViva's role in alternative energy here in Hawai`i. We'll get the link to the show in about a month! Way to go Will!
