What in the......

We did a whole bunch of nothing today.....I have no one but the cat to blame for that! As you can clearly see he's holding me hostage.....

I did make the boys go on a walk so I could play on the swings at a nearby park.....If anyone on my island had been wanting to go swing on the swings at a park, I'm just giving you a heads up that there are no more swings....

Seriously people.....is there nothing good left in this world? Oh well, at least I got to embarrass Buddy while I wore my Bunny suit, that should count for something!!!! So all in all a super fantastic, you can even see the disappointment in Buddy's face, day! 

Love you mom!

Lamest ever!!!!

 Today is my birthday! My mother may have gotten me the worst present ever....well, I'm sure there are worse gifts, but hers is pretty bad.....Good thing she's so cute so I can forgive her for her lame present this year!

Just kidding mom....well, your present was lame, but if I know anything that you taught me, it was   "you brought me into the world so you could take me out of it", nope that wasn't it. It was, ain't, ain't a word, ain't it. Nope......"beggars can't be choosers" ? Hmmm....nope, I think it was "it's the thought that counts"? Don't worry, I have exacted my revenge by delivering goods to her door to cinch my favorite child status....shhh, don't tell my siblings!

There's only room for one favorite child, and that's my spot !

At least my coworkers gave me a substantially better gift with these daily affirmations socks....

They go great with my birthday suit!

As icing on the cake,  my sister sent me a picture to add to my collection of my dad "reading"! 

All those pictures are going to come in handy some day, I just know it!!!

So all in all a super fantastic, thankful for modern medicine, healthcare providers and sisters!

I'm baaack!!!!

 So after a very long hiatus where I got one of these...

I can try to catch up what has happened over the last few months. Hawaii went on serious lockdown for the summer.....so we decided to go to socially distance somewhere even better......Buddy learned some new tricks

I forced the entire family into more hikes than ever!!!!

This hike led Buddy to the top of a very tall cliff that I refused to approach closer, least I fall to my death!!! My momma didn't raise no dummy.....Buddy's momma however....

Buddy and Shane discovered a new way to torture me....

It involves a vehicle wrapped in metal and some very small paths and steep cliffs!!

We took Hyrum on our Moab adventures with us and it was amazing....except Hyrum may have lost sensation in his hands after I squeezed them to death during our excursions....

Buddy started 10th grade, and is actually in one of the only schools in Hawaii doing face to face classes...

My picture should be coming soon....let me assure you it'll be awesome since they let me look in a mirror before hand and I have serious face marks from the masks and goggles....

Buddy had a socially distanced Bob Ross birthday party.....

I wish I had been smarter and planned better, I made sushi, but after I finished making it I though if I had been smarter I could have made some disgusting popular gelatin treats from the 70's....oh well, next time. We are cat sitting two cats for some friends that are staying in France for a while and Buddy has gotten used to them without having to take Benadryl or having his head explode!

Finally, my co-workers and I won the prize for best costumes....

Was there ever any doubt in us????

So all in all a super fantastic, getting back at it, day!
