What am I looking forward to on Sunday and Tuesday??
MY FAMILY IS COMING! I am SOOO excited to see everyone it is ridiculous. I just want to hang out with them all day everyday. And I think I will secretly try to get them to miss their flights so that they have to stay longer!

Down in Waikiki
Since I have been in Hawaii they have been doing construction in Waikiki. Well around the place we like to go (Cheesecake Factory) it is pretty much done and I LOVE how they have decorated everything. I want to decorate like this in and outside of my house. Cool hanging lights:
They are huge as you can tell from these two pics. We also really like how they built around the trees instead of getting rid of them.
Cool seating area. I really like the colors together and I love the style of these. 
Todd looking weird, but they had huge containers like this all over.
We went up on the roof because it was unlocked and before we were going down too men started coming at us from both sides like trapping us and told us we had to get down. I didn't say it to them, but I said it loudly enough for them to hear that if they don't want people going there then they should lock the gate!
Another cool seating area.
Whoever their decorator is did a great job. They paid attention to every single detail to make the shopping area a luxurious place. I want to hire them (but not really...I just want them to volunteer their service for free).
Todd lounging on the lounger. I would absolutely love to have these around my future pool in my backyard :)
My birthday...finally
I am such a slacker. I haven't even been busy lately (except for one week training for my new job), but I have completely slacked on blogging. I am really going to try to do better I swear! So my birthday was on July 27th, but I have yet to blog about it. I turned 21 and it was fun. We had some friends over for Costco cake. The day before my birthday Todd said I could choose what we did that day (because my bday was on a Sunday), but I was REALLY not in the mood to drive anywhere so we just stayed at home and relaxed. Lately every time I want to go and do something I just get mad that we have to drive so far away to do it! I am looking forward to the days where if I want to go to a store that doesn't rip you off, I will just have to drive around the corner to it. When I was home that was one of the things I loved, and my house isn't even that close to the stores. It's funny how I used to think that I lived SO far away from everything, but I guess living in Laie puts it into perspective. Anyways, we also went last weekend to the Cheesecake Factory thanks to Todd's parents gift to me. My mom and dad were awesome and sent me more birthday presents then I thought I would get (because I thought I had gotten all of them when I was at home to visit). So that was my birthday! Not as eventful as a lot of people's 21st, but it was perfect for me.
Yes I ordered them to put "You are awesome" on my cake. Todd said not to, but I wanted to anyways. And no, no one actually ate those frosting balloons...they were just too much frosting!!


We didn't get many pictures, but that was the party!

Todd Graduates!

Next week on Wednesday is Todd's last day of his undergraduate degree!! He will be completely done with everything. I am really jealous of him. I am not jealous that he will have a full time job. If anyone would like to come to his graduation it is.....in December. We only have two commencement ceremonies, one in June & one in December, and Todd didn't do the one in June. So the big date is December 13th I believe. Everyone should come for a week and hang out with us!

Lazy week
Last week was so nice because I was only allowed to work 19 hours! I loved being able to sleep in and just choose a couple of hours each day to go in. On Wednesday I went downtown to take an Excel certification and I passed. After I was done I went shopping by myself and it was lovely! Todd normally is with me and as soon as he walks into a store with me he starts yawning and gets really tired and says that he is going to go find somewhere to sit down. So I got to spend an hour and a half in ONE store without having to worry about tired Todd. Anyways, I am dreading going back to 40 hours this week at work. I don't think I am cut out for a job...at least one that I don't do anything at. I just never feel busy at my job so the day drags on forever! Well, I will post more tomorrow at work to give me something to do :)
