I am so sorry I haven't posted! I guess all I can use as an excuse is this picture....
It is safe to say that I would rather look at this than my computer...believe it o
r not! This is my beach! I am lucky enough to say that this is about a 5 minute walk from my house. I have been here for about a month (can't believe its been that long by the way!) and out of those 36 days I have been to the beach 33 days! Ha. It is really hard to go a day without it. So basically we got here at about 10 pm Hawaii time after leaving Salt Lake about 5 in the morning. Long long day. We had a 8 hour layover in L.A. and we were already super tired. So we had our handy dandy Grey's Anatomy with us luckily and the lap top to watch it on! We were well prepared. We found a "cubby" if you will and stayed there practically the whole time....
But that flight and 8 hour layover was well worth it! Our awesome landlord came and picked us up and we made it home at about 10 that night. We got just enough unpacked to go straight to bed! Our house is pretty cute and we love the neighborhood and all of that. Needless to say the ocean. Its amazing! Anyone who needs a vacation please come out here and visit! Open invite. Its amazing.
So we promised ourselves that the first thing we would do is find a job. So, we decided to be
grown ups and took the whole next day to look for jobs.... which actually turned into a 3 week long job search. It was ridiculous! There are NO jobs in the little town of Laie that I live in. So we finally looked outside of the town and after a month of being here I got my first paycheck! Which was very needed but sadly my first day was the last day of the pay period. but every little bit counts!
We finally made it to do the things we really want to instead of looking for dang jobs! So we laid out at the beach practically all day and got fried! Which was expected and I guess its all part of the experience right? Then later that day we wanted to go on a hike so this (on the right) is us at Wiamea Falls.... It was such a great day. We loved it.
So one of the best parts of Hawaii for us is that we nanny for our landlord. We get to watch the cutest kids ever! Tavita is 4 Malia is 2 and Shaylee is 5 months. They are the best kids ever and are adorable! I am going to take some better pictures of them and will post them soon for you guys to all be jealous :)
Love and miss you all like crazy! I promise I will be better at updating this in the future :)
Love always Danielle Sue!
