Fun Onsies!

I recently had to go to a baby shower and this is what I made

pretty simple, fun, and makes simple onsies a little more fun!

Thanksgiving 09

Our Thanksgiving was really mellow. David had the day off, and was pretty tired from work, so we basically relaxed all day. Really mellow. We had Thanksgiving dinner with our landlords. Good company, great food!

My job was to make the cranberry sauce. First time, surprisingly easy, and tasty. but I prefer it on my rolls than meat.

The Feast! mmm

a great change of pace

David is filming for the Vans triple crown of surfing. We are so excited because it is definitely a great change of pace from teaching at the high school, and he gets to do what he LOVES. The Haleiwa Reef Pro contest is pau, but Sunset Beach Oneill World Cup should start this weekend, then following is the Billabong Pipeline Masters. Watch online at triplecrownofsurfing.com and watch the live feed! David films all the beach scenes and most of the interviews with the pros!

The Haleiwa contest

Here David is filming Sonny Garcia's interview

Not a bad office for David to be working at ;)

Happy Aloha Friday the 13th!

Today, I didn't get called for work, and the contest wasn't  running in Haleiwa, so David didn't work either. We spent the day surfing with friends, and lunch together and then running some errands.
We started off with a muddy water surf session at Kahana Valley! It has been raining a ton is, so all the rivers are letting out in the ocean. I was a little creeped out of the brown water, but we had fun getting some long waves!  (the evening before was even more fun)

well the water was sure ugly, but the mountain in view were beautiful!!!

                                       

After the surf we ate at El Mariachi, very good mexican food, (blows Cholos out of the water) and they make the yummiest horchata I have EVER had! mmmmmm and Im not the only one who must think that because my friend Hurley came in and ordered only a horchata, to go! ha I had to get a picture with him for my Mum! ha!

Thanks Stew and Malia showing us the yummy mexican food place! yipee!

sewing wannabe

This past summer, I went to the LA fabric district. and bought a bunch of fabric. Now its November and I have only done 2 sewing projects with the fabric. not so good. But I sure am excited for December when I go back to LA and get more goodies, and get a few sewing lessons from Mum (right mum?) because I think its about time I learn how to use a pattern.

Prom Dates

It feels like just yesterday, David and I went to our senior prom together......

Well, for real, we went to savers (a thrift store that isn't the thriftiest, for instance, jeans that are crappy and cost 12 dollars...I mean c'mon, anyone could go to walmart and get pants for $10, brand new and they wont smell like old people) and spent almost an hour looking for something inspiring for Halloween. Things weren't going too well until I came across this beautiful emerald green dress. Haha! It was soooo hideous and completely ridiculous, I had to try it on. I previously made up my mind that I did not want to be anything 80s ever again for Halloween, because I feel that everyone is always 80s..... I dont know. BUT......when I slipped into that beauty, and it fit like a glove......I had a change of heart, and bought that $8 dress. It should have been cheaper because it was ripped up, but yeah yeah, oh well. It originally had long sleeves, and I cut them off, made puffy sleeves and since the dress was ripped I used some of the dress fabric for David's suspenders and bow tie! well anyway! we had fun all dressed up!

I wish we got more photos of everyone else we saw that night, but for some reason we didnt get very many....duh!

Stewart, Malia (crazy tourists) and The Bowens (ghosts and prom nerds)! not the greatest quality pic....

This costume was, I think, THE most creative, it was such a trip when they would dance around! Yeah! stick figures! (hope they dont mind me posting the photo, but it was too cool!)

Love Love LOVE this movie.

I love the 80s movie Teen Witch! It is so ridiculous, and so funny! Gotta love the 80s. Found it on hotmoviesale.com for like 8 bucks. Very tempted to purchase, like so many other things. This video clip is probably the most popular! tee hee
