i'm going to hawaii! yay!

So I'm sure you all know by now that duh. I live in Hawaii. However, I am going to another part of Hawaii next month, the Garden Island of Kauai!!

I am super excited for this trip. It took us forever to decide if we wanted to go.... well, we always wanted to go, but in this time of economic turd-dom we couldn't decide if we SHOULD go. Well, we decided that since veteran's day is right around the corner, and BF is a certified war vet now, that damnit we were going to take a few days off and just do it! (Besides, when are we ever going to have this opportunity again? Once we move back to the mainland, no more island hopping... booo)

So yay for Kauai! It's supposed to be the most beautiful of the Hawaiian islands and I cannot wait to experience it. There are already several places I want to see including the famous Poipu beach and one or two of their countless waterfalls! Don't worry, I'll take lots of pictures and maybe by then I'll have started posting pictures on here haha. if not, I'll put them on facebook for sure.

Topic change: BF brought home the Wii Fit this week!! How amazing is it you ask? AH-mazing! I think you burn most calories laughing while watching someone else trying to do the exercises. And I love all the variety of activities. I apparently have no balance skills, but hey it's something to work on. It's kind of funny though to work out with it and realize there are some things you are really good at (like running and sit ups and hula-hooping apparently) and realizing that there are some things that you are horrible at (like yoga and push ups and walking without tripping...)

That's right, the Wii Fit keeps asking me if I trip when I walk because my balance is so off... and the crazy part is, I really do trip when I walk! BF laughs at me all the time when we're in public! Luckily I am skilled enough now to catch myself before I fall, but I do trip a lot! The Wii Fit has also told me that I am a couch potato, a novice at yoga, a body builder and a calorie burner all in the same session haha. Guess I really know what I need to work on!

It is a lot of fun though, and good for you. It made me set a goal, so in two months I'll let you know if I've reached it. Here's hoping!
