Graduation Anticipation

This boy is going to be graduating in 3 weeks! We can't wait!

Counting down the days

Moving from one paradise...

to another...

In about 3 weeks, we are moving from the North Shore of Hawaii in Laie to Newport Beach California. All I have are bittersweet feelings right now... but I am excited for what lies ahead!

Great Aloha Run 2010

My friend Cassie and I decided to do the 8.15 mile Great Aloha Run that goes from downtown Honolulu to the Aloha Stadium. I never thought I would be able to do something like this, but it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. We both jogged the whole thing without stopping, and it took us about an hour and forty minutes. We were so proud of ourselves. Maybe now I can at least see a half marathon in the future!

The starting line... there was over 24,000 people that participated!

The finish line... we came in 7,000 something place!

Catching up...

Where have we been for the past 7 months you might ask? Here are some pictures of what we've been up to!

And it really made my day!

Weekend in Waikiki

Aaron surprised me with a two night stay in Waikiki for our 1 year anniversary! It was the perfect way for us to spend some time together!

I love you Mr. Bobik!

Seattle

This is where we are headed in 31 more days...

4th of July

This year for the 4th we watched the fireworks from the Turtle Bay golf course since Aaron works there. We were able to take some carts out and BBQ on the course before the firework show started. It was an amazing show and such a relaxing night!

After the firework show at Turtle Bay, we went back to our apartment and lit some sparklers. We had lots of fun with those...

(As you can see in this last picture, it got pretty smokey!)

We hope you enjoyed your 4th of July as much as we did!

My 21st Birthday!

This year was my big 21st birthday! Aaron had an awesome night planned for me! Originally Aaron had planned to take me to a restaurant called Jameson's in Haliewa, but last minute we decided to just get a pizza and eat it on the beach (one of our favorite things to do in Hawaii). Aaron told me that when we were done eating we were going over to our friend's Brett and Cassi's house to have cake. I told me that I wanted to go home and change first. The minute I opened our front door, I heard several voices yell "surprise!". I had no idea that Aaron had planned a little surprise party for me. Lots of our close friends were there to wish me and happy birthday and eat my favorite cake from Ted's Bakery... Chololate Haupia Cake! I can honestly say that it was a perfect birthday!

Aaron made me another one of his homemade lei's... love them!

He also decorated the front of our apartment...

PTG... stands for pony tail girl. He has called me this ever since we started dating because I always wear my hair in a pony tail.

My Graduation

Here are some pictures from my graduation. Most of my immediate family got to come out for it except for my little sister Tessa and Mom and Dad (Missed you guys!). Big shout out to Jory, Tricia, Jordan, Caitlin, and Aaron for making my day so special!

Graduation Banquet... Aaron actually made me the Lei that I am wearing in these pictures!

Getting ready to Graduate!

Ended with a nice lunch at Lei Lei's!
