We usually have plans on the weekend especially on Sundays which is as of now; Sunday is the only day off of my husband. Last Sunday we went to the 10 miles Bike trail it's actually 20 miles for us because we went back where we parked. Delayed is expected because it's a long trail, chains and brakes went off. Good thing my husband always has his torx with him to do some bicycle quick fix. It was really a good day to do outdoors and the sun is not so hot, good thing we started early cause in the afternoon when we're heading home it started to rain.

Another angle of Waikiki and Diamond head. Diamond head has a short trail that you could hike to the peak of the mountain. My husband wanted to hike diamond head, we have to plan it on an early Sunday morning to avoid the heat of the sun especially this time that summer is approaching. Taken by Magic Island.

Thyroid controls how our body uses energy, makes proteins, and controls how sensitive the body is to other hormones. If you experience hair loss, fatigue and weakness, weight gain, insomnia, constipation and so on, then you probably have Thyroid disorder. If you're looking for thyroid specialist you should check out Thyroid doctor austin in Texas. They are the best because they will tailor your treatment based on your test results.

This is one of my "stress buster" hobby. I remember when I was young that I couldn't keep still, I always look for something to do and though myself how to cross stitch, crochet, simple drawings of cartoon characters and clipping art papers. I remember my mom gets mad at me because we don't have that much money to spare on my hobby.

There are times that we need fast cash. So many ways to get it but the easiest and secure way is to do it with Turbo Title loan. My cousin lives in Colorado, she likes car title loans Colorado because she can get it fast, and it's secure, convenient. She only needs the money for two months, so she only paid worth of two months interest. In my own opinion, Turbo tile loan is really good because they help you and tailor it to your needs.

I am so bless that I now live in Hawaii for good. That we have the blue clean ocean and fresh air. Thick beautiful forest to and trails to explore. Swimming and fishing in clear blue waters.
Hawaii is a land of beauty and enchantment. Most people that came here to visit never left because they were enchanted by its beauty, the nature, the ocean, the people. It's a busy metro with a laid-back country side.

I want to make our family room fun for us and the kids so I decided to get us Orbeez mood lamp. It's a ball that comes in different color, when you add water to it becomes bigger 100 times its size. It is fun for the kids and us and it glows in water. You can always go to their web site to Buy Orbeez refills in different colors. The kids love to play with them, they make different designs. It is really fun to have orbeez so get your now.

It took me awhile to update my blog about our Hike at "Kuliouou Ridge Trail". It was an amazing Hike, it was my first Hike ever in Hawaii to be honest but it was great, in fact i am ready for round 2 Hike at Kuliouou Ridge Trail.
Kuliouou ridge trail is located on the east side of Oahu. It has two trails, one is The Valley Trail which is a 1.5 miles 300 ft in elevation and the one we took was the ridge trail is 2.5 miles 2oooft elevation. My first hike was so awesome which inspired me to Hike more trails and mountains as long as I could. Never been to the valley trail but the ridge trail has a very awesome views of the east side. We are planning to do round 2 sometime on May.
I'm hoping that my husband will come with us next time. He works out a lot before, lifts weight and does other crazy stuff at the gym but it's been awhile that he did not work out. I want him to be fit as well and I think he could share my love of nature adventure. That's the reason why it took me awhile to do what I love which is nature hiking because my husband is not really into it. Good thing I found friends who loves to Hike after 6 years here in Hawaii. It's never too late for me to do what I love.
We are planning to do Once a month Hike to a different location and continuing to challenge ourselves and endurance. We want to do alternate hard and easy trails. The first one was a very good trail, the last half mile was a killer. The next hike will be at "Manana trail" 6miles 1700ft elevation. Never been there but they said its an easy one, lets see. I wish my husband could come with us and enjoy nature.

Hope it will not rain today or tomorrow and the wind gust will be mild. Our plan for tomorrow is to hike a 2.5 miles trail at "Kuliouou" one of the famous hiking trail in Oahu. This is the view on top and I'm hoping to get more beautiful photos tomorrow. I am very excited to be with my girl friends.

My husband knows that I love jewelries he said he has a surprise for me on our Anniversary which is a few days to Valentines. I remember that last month that he was asking my opinion about pandora jewelry, I told him that I want to have pandora style jewels to go with most of my wardrobe. I know for sure I will get a pandora style bracelet but I keep wondering what color and charm design he picked.

I am sad because my Bonsai that I got last month is dying. I have herbs too inside our apartment, I noticed that my mint started to have this white dust like forms on its leaves upon my close inspection I notice that its insect but I don't want to spray it. The culprit that started it was my petite roses that died after the insect swarm on its leaves and branches and now it's spreading to my mint and bonsai. Oh my bonsai please fight for your life cause I really don't know what to do to help you, I don't want to give you insecticide.

My husband is not so much into cuff links because of the nature of his business that he does not wear suites as much. The person that I know that owns and collect cuff links is my brother, one reason is his job that he needs to wear suites and formal on business meetings, he lives in the Mainland US. Once I gave him a collector's case for his collections, if I happen to see a cuff link design that he might like I buy it for him, he always appreciate it according to him I always find something unusual.

The inserted photos where taken at the Waipahu side. My estimate is about 8-10 miles from start to finish. I only did 8 miles including the back and forth from where I've park which is about 2 miles from the finish line. My next goal is to do the start to finish, I never knew that walking is addicting but I'm having problem sleeping, maybe because I'm tired or my Endorphin level is high. Even I have been experiencing the Endorphin high which I became restless on bed this will not stop me from walking and hiking. I am looking forward to Hike with my Girl Friends and from then we might have a once a month hike to different trails in Oahu. I know I love nature Hiking and Walking it's just that I married a man who does not love it as much as I do, but thanks to some friends who love Hiking.

My husband just got a new TV that we can network with my laptop and other electronics but the bad part is, it does not come with network cable so I did look online and order it. The moment we got it on the mail he wants me to connect everything which I did and it work so well and so convenient for us. I wish my husband is a little techie so I will be waiting for him to do the networking.

On our up-coming wedding anniversary I want to make a log cake which will represent our 5th year and counting. I want to play with fondant cream cheese frosting will be perfect for this.
Since I really wanted to play with fondant, I might make a little round cakes for my husband's birthday. I want to make red velvet minis with fondant. Let see what will come to my mind and I will surely post some updates.

My sweet mother-in-law sent my husband a package two weeks ago. When he open it, it was a cheap campaign signs for his truck with his business name and contact number on it. She is so sweet that she wants to help us to get more business and we really appreciate it. I was thinking about it for awhile and suggested the idea to my husband but we are procrastinating that we always forgot to stop by the sign shop. But thanks to Mom and she us this from online.

I promise myself that I will do good on working out and exercise so I did. I just wish that I will have more time to do it at least 3-4 times a week, too bad I'm working and I can only do it once or twice a week depending on my work schedule. I love working out in fact I was having fun this morning, after I did my running at the park, I did my walking by the shopping center and it was so fun that I don't want to go home. It was the longest walking I ever did that I don't want to stop. I am looking forward for more successful workouts. I am also looking for some workouts that I could do indoor for the days that I don't have enough time for long walks, maybe I will go back on dancing because it really work on me the last time I did it. The guilty part was, after all those sweats, I cave in and indulge to a fudge brownie, anyway it's 70 calories cause it's a pumpkin brownie.

I wish that everybody survive the Holidays. Well in my case, I did. As a wife I am in charge on gifts and you want to nail it or at least close to the perfect gift for a certain type of person. For my husband's business associate who smokes I got them cohiba cigars. I had tried it last year to a few people as Christmas present which they love it so I had it on my list of gifts. I admit that sometimes it’s hard to think about gift ideas, so after the Holidays I am already making plans for next year and looking around for presents.

For 2011 xmas, I put up my tree as early as first week of November. I twicked my tree twice and bought new ornaments (which is not a good idea) though I made a promise to myself that I will not buy as much ornaments this coming xmas, maybe a few ribbons will do :).
I made the tinsel tree on the right inspired by the picture on the left. I will make another one about 36" tall especially for my Radko ornaments that was given to me by a very nice lady friend from work. I will also make a tinsel tree for next xmas.
The story of me making the tree started when my friend show me her cute tree which is the one on the left made of artificial pine tree, really cute. I went around town's shopping stores and craft store but was no luck. Went online looking for the same thing but still no luck. After xmas I was shopping around for discounted xmas trims and hit the idea of making one. So I made one for me and was happy, though my next project will me more slender tinsel tree and a little bit taller. I will surely made some more to give to my friends for next xmas.

This are the images of my Xmas trees since I got married 07, I am so happy that I have most of the picture to make a collage but I am so sad because I think I lost the picture of my first 07 Xmas tree. I love the simple white Christmas theme of 2008, each year has it's own character. 2009 is simple as well, I like how I lay the balls in clusters.
2010 is a little bit messy and confused, we're just too busy wrapping the present for the kids, buts it's the most memorable Christmas of all since the family is complete with the grand kids.
2011 is quite and wonderful, a new beginning for us and I love my tree, I have two designs. The first one is with peppermint ribbon, I tweaked it with a new ribbon because I want to get the "granny smith apple" color from the ribbon and supposed to be "red and white" tree but it ended up looking so different and so overly decorated but I still love it. Next year will be another winter wonderland theme.
