"Discovering Pumpkins" -- This weekend we celebrated an early Halloween by crashing a party at Turtle Bay. Kai was a redneck, Kristie was a...ya know, I still have no freakin' idea what she was, and I was a NY Yankee under construction. Trick 'r Treating is next...

"The other performer in the family" -- Kristie joined her local hula halau and danced a few numbers at a recent community event. She's famous -- even the instructor singled her out in the introduction, saying, "You'll notice in this halau that there are many different ages, many nationalities, and we even have a blonde." Just keep the blonde jokes to a minimum :)

"Special Day" -- We spent our Fourth Anniversary gnawing on crab legs and shrimp cocktail at the PCC Ambassador Dinner.

"Lunch at the Hukilau" -- So fun to have Dan (Kristie's bro) and his wife Chris visit while they were in paradise. Tried to take them places w/ all the best "grindz," including Hukilau Cafe and Giovanni's Shrimp Shack.

"Mmmm..." -- Livin' large on the sheepskin rug.

"The Boys of Maui" -- Jason Yeats and I golfed the Dunes at Maui Lani recently while he and his wife Ali (Kristie's roommate at Ricks) were "in town." In the short timespan of our living here, the Yeats' have visited us twice -- "You guys still have jobs, right?"
