We Bought Land!

If you ever asked me if I thought I would own 10 acres on Kauai I would have said never!  But Jackie and I made it happen!  We have had our eyes on this property for a while now and finally decided to bite the bullet.  So many things lined up that made this possible!  I can't thank enough people and destiny for making this happen!  We even (kinda) have a tractor (thanks Corey)!  It's already been an adventure.  We have soooooo much to clear and a ton of work to do before we build, but it is a work in progress!

Alex came out to help with some chain sawing.  It was a super busy work of clearing, but we made a pretty nice size dent in the home site.



The stream needs some clearing so we have been playing in the mud and hand clearing what we can.




Alex bought us a shed so we don't have to continually carry our tools back and forth!

Jackie felled her biggest tree to date!

I never thought the day would come, but I sold the fit!  I really good deal come up on a Honda Odyssey and I thought it would be nice to have more room so I have moved on to a soccer mom van.  The other day when we were doing a green waste run (pulling our trailer with the van), a guy referred to Jackie as a "Mom Looking Creature". Pretty funny! Ashley gave us face masks so we had to try them out! We helped a farm do some pineapple planting. It was a learning experience in more ways than one! Jackie had to stay home with the dog so Jess and I went to the Line Dance Festival in Vegas! Had to stop at In N Out We went to Kona for Christmas, but the dog started having seizures again so we had to go home early.

We met up in Park City for Thanksgiving and got to experience some snow for the first time in a while! Turns out Jackie and Ski!  Don't let her outfit fool you! Steamy!  We got to stay at the Marriott Mountainside which was right at the ski lift at Park City.  Thanks dad! There had to be Leatherbys! Morning hike/walk I wasn't the only one who wanted Jackie's cinnamon roll! Going to see wicked.  How theaters have changed! Got to hang out with Alex and Ceci for a minute while I picked up the snowboard. Spoons!
