Who LoVeS camping, WE DO!


Ok, first of all there are scorpions in Hawaii!!! What the heck! When we were digging our fire pit this little guy decides to make an entrance. After that my eyes were super glued to the ground afraid one of these little guys might get me.



Our awesomely sweet BIG tent. When Mikey and I moved here we had to buy and tent. One Saturday morning we went to a garage sale and this family was practically giving away stuff and we scored this (originally very expensive tent) for $40, score! It sleeps 8 and so if any one ever wants to come camping with us we gotta plenty of room :)




Best, buy ever! Growing up we never had camping chairs we always sat on the ground but now that were grown ups we got chairs.



Our awesomely cool friends who love camping too. Here is a little shout out to our good friends Nick and Andrea, "You Rock, You Rock, You Rock!"



Me, with sun in my eyes, hair in my face, and loving every second of it :)



My hott husband!



These really cool greeny slimy rocky things



One of my favorite pictures I took



This one is for Andrea, my super cool "blue" toes :)



I love my husband and the fact that he loves the out doors!!! We are truly two peas in a pod.



Ok, so here is a little game for everyone. "Where is crab kukumika (koo-koo-me-ka)?" Can ya see him? This little guy is the master of disguises.



Mikeys cool shades



The love of my life!




Oh my beautiful Hawaii I thank God that I am blessed to be here every day.



Seriously this place is GORGEOUS!!!

Extremely late Christmas Photos :)

Mikey and I went to Utah for Christmas holiday and had the time of our lives.

Mike and I decided that we were going to surprise the Chism family for Christmas. My family (the Manco's) already new we were coming and so they helped us get everything organized.

The day of the surprise: My dad picked us up from the airport and took us to the Chisms. Mike and I hid while my dad rang the door bell and told them that he had a gift for them from us (cause my dad was just in Hawaii at my graduation so it was very believable). He said that it was pretty heavy so he needed their help getting it out of his truck. So the family all came outside to help and as they were coming down the stairs Mike and I were standing there. We all started cheering, yelling, and hugging it was awesome!!! Best surprise ever!


So none of mikes siblings were going to be in UT on Christmas day and so we had an early Christmas.

Tom (mikes dad) is an older version of Mike. Those two are like two big kids, always playing jokes and being silly, seriously they are identical.



Kathy Mikes beautiful momma, this woman has a heart of gold. Because we were going to be there for Christmas (or that's what they thought) she shipped us this massive box full of Christmas presents and treats :) My favorite present was the Magic Bullet. I am sure our neighbors hate us cause we are always making smoothies at random hours in the night.


Derek Mikes brother and his girl friend. Notice the classic fist pump, love it!


Everyone checking out their sweet presents


Mike with Lexi and Daxton our niece and nephew


Daxton and I play foosball, seriously I suck at that game


We had a Ginerbread house competition and if anyone knows my family they are all EXTREMELY competitive needless to say Ezron (the youngest) killed us all with his awesome house





We went bowling as a family and I have never laughed so hard in my life. We are one big crazy family and yes again we had a competition :)


I love my Utah friends! I have the best girlfriends in the world. I just want to give a special thanks for all those who came to see me even when it was a blizzard outside and you had to drive out to the boonies :) I love you!!!


Love, Love, Love you guys!!!


Getting a "Good" family photo is like finding a fire breathing dragon, not going to happen. Seriously, my brothers will not hold still, smile, look at the camera, or ever take is seriously. This is the only one out of hundreds of tries that looks half decent.


SNOW, I love it!
My dad took us sledding on his toboggan, which he has had sense he was a kid.


Get ready, lets go!


Awesome fun!


The other hills got to crowed so we decided to find our own mountain. My dad, outdoor extremest, is determined to to hike up this mountain (the snow is up to our thighs).


Mike, me and dad hiking. I was dripping sweat by the time we got to the top.


The fun part, ridding down the mountain :)






We love UT and the Snow


This past Christmas was the best Christmas I have had ever had. We had two weeks full of family, movies, food, snow, laughter, friends, games, bowling, and more laughter. I love my family!!!

Rain Rain Go Away Come Again Another Day...

I love Hawaii and its beauty but seriously could the rain please stop. Biking home in the rain ='s cold, wet, and not fun. However, I did find some awesomely huge fun puddles to ride through :)

On the positive side of rain


Beautiful Rainbows!!!!

There are many pro's to making a decorating cakes and cupcakes but lately I am realizing a major con.

Baking Yummy Yummy Cupcakes


+ Eating and tasting way to many

BABIES!!!

(no, sorry we are not prego)

Ok, so Mikey and I were bored the other night and had to urge to see what our future kids would look like (you know how on facebook they always have those funny advertisements on the side bar, well yep, we got sucked in). So we uploaded our pictures, picked a baby name and a photo frame and this is what our first child is going to look like.



Hilarious!!! We were laughing so hard that tears were rolling down my cheeks. What the heck! Seriously! Our little girls is going to be pretty much black with crazy awesome hair :)

Baby number 2. We thought we should do a boy so we had one of each.




Ha it gets better instead of one super cute black baby were going to have two (and one with a pretty big forehead) ! Mike was dying with laughter, what are the odds.
