Dave and Busters

Hawaii is getting a lot nicer! We finally got our stuff. Most of you know that we sold our house in NC in October and moved in with my parents until we left. So a vast majority of our stuff had been in storage or transit here since September. It had been a long time since we had slept in our own bed or sat on our sofa! It is really nice to have our stuff back! Unfortunately, the movers lost a part of the metal to our bed frame, so our bed is currently on the ground. We will have to sort through all of that tomorrow with the military moving office. At first, I thought it was the end of the world that our bed was on the floor; now, I could care less. It will get fixed eventually. Until then, our bed is just a lot lower than it should be!

Luke is adjusting to his new room - the walk-in closet! We were only able to find a one bedroom apartment that was nice and clean. We found other places with more bedrooms, but they were smaller than this place. So, we will make due with a one bedroom until base housing opens up. We were very fortunate that our landlords who live below us are allowing us to rent month-to-month. As soon as a place opens up on base, we can move. (That should be in the next 2 months. So really we moved just to move again. I know the military is backwards sometimes!)

Last night, Jason and I were able to go out to eat without Luke. This was my first time being away from Luke since we left Hawaii with one exception of a doctor's appointment. Our friend, Deanna, from NC watched him. We ate at the Hilton Hawaiian Village in Waikiki and then bought a birthday present for Sarah. The food was WAY over priced, but our view from the table was amazing! Tonight, we went to Dave and Busters in Honolulu with Luke. We had a blast. I tried to win Luke a oversized flat football from the claw machine and ended up with this HUGE ugly stuffed bear that is dressed in basketball gear, complete with a headband and high tops. Jason was impressed that I won it, but I was embarrassed to carry it around the place the rest of the time. The thing is UGLY! I'll have to take a picture and post it. It is bigger than Luke!
