Adam and I have decided to set up this site to help keep family and friends up-to-date about our life here in Hawaii, since neither of us are the best at keeping in contact, and we want to share our excitement with the ones we love most in the world.
Well, we arrived in Hawaii on July 2nd...and have been running ever since. We have been staying a hotel for the last few weeks, and as grand as it sounds to have someone always cleaning up after you, and to eat out for every meal, we are definitely ready for our own space.
Speaking of which...WE ARE IN ESCROW ON OUR FIRST HOME! Yeah, crazy as it sounds, we found our dream home within a week of being here. It is a beautiful 3 bed/1.5 bath open-concept home nestled in the hills of Kailua, only 2 miles from the beach. Things are moving so quickly, and are going so well, that it looks like we will be closing the first week of August. Amusingly enough, we will be living in our home well before all of our house-hold goods get here. It will be us, a house, and an air mattress.
I was also spoiled with a new car, I got a Jeep Patriot...as much as I wanted a Wrangler, the safety features and space of this Jeep won me over....that and I LOVE IT!
Adam started his job on July 9th, and that has been keeping him quite occupied, though the getting up at 5:30 in the morning is getting to him.
I started my job at Tripler last week, and am SO excited...though nervous, my nursing realm never included little babies...so there is a whole new learning curve for me. That and I am hoping to start my Masters in a few weeks....should be hearing about that anytime now.
Honestly, we can't wait to settle into our new little abode, and just fall into a routine...then we can start getting to everything else we want here....surfing here we come!
We will be posting picts to share everything with everyone once our stuff gets here and gives us that ability.
