My parents came to visit the beautiful island of Oahu almost a week ago now. They came at the perfect time too! :) David and I weren't too busy with classes, we had a long (memorial day) weekend, and the weather was great (for the most part).
We had so much fun, and when it came time for them to leave, we shed buckets and buckets of tears.
I am embarrassed to say that I broke first haha
Anyway, if I were to sum up the whole week with my family in one word it would be SHOPPING.
My family lives in Japan, so they (mostly mom) get really excited to shop in the states. I didn't mind at all since I am daughter of a big shopper :) I love shopping. I don't know what I would do if I couldn't shop at all.
I'm glad I have a husband who understands and doesn't mind me shopping either!
Hoorah for understanding husbands :)
Unfortunately, I didn't really take many pictures while they were here. I kept forgetting I had my camera with me. In fact, I literally forgot my camera in the hotel room after we checked out. I didn't realize it until after dinner!
we went to haleiwa eats.
love that place :D
kawaii!!
turtle bay is so serene
guess where this is!
last morning together...:(

my mom looks like my sister!
dad's surprised face!
she didn't want to leave hawaii, and most importantly...us!
I LOVE MY MAMA!
About forty minutes after my parents left I realized that I forgot my bag with our passports and phone in their rental car...so we had to meet them half way from kaneohe. I felt so bad...good thing they didn't miss their flight!
That night we went to food fest with some friends and ate some BOMB thai food and chinese food :)
my cute lil thai friend named WI!
our awesome next door neighbors. we love em!
I'm so grateful to have family and friends who love and care for us!
So I found your blog through a friend's blog and I was like "That's David from my Japanese class!"
ReplyDeleteIt looks like you're half Japanese like me! :) I was so jealous of David because he always got out of taking the final and I didn't...Anyway, I agree, your parents (and you and David) are super kawaii.
what the, is that really chekas hair? ITS SO LONG is it really her hair? just straight?
ReplyDeleteEllen--I remember David telling me about the half Japanese girl in his class! hahaa David's crazy good at acquiring languages...he learns fast!
ReplyDeleteLisa--yeah it's all hers!! maki straightened half of it, and then I went over and straightened the other half. it takes like an hour to do it all!
