My last 24 hours in Hawaii for a while…. :( :( :(

Did some sensational trampoline jumping.

Enjoyed the Hawaiian Pacific with these little friends of mine.

Went to my old room in Hale 2 tonight, 129.
Good times in there with my dear Lilly girl.

It’s Nicola’s room now.
She’s the new RS pres too when I leave.
I told her everything I know and I everything I learned
about being Relief Society president.

I was so sad to hand over my magical folder full of 20th ward RS goodness, but it’s time. And I know this girl will do marvelously.

My Memorial Day celebrations began Sunday evening, with a bike ride to the Sheri Dew and Wendy Nelson fireside. Excellent.
Then Yesenia, Mariah, and Anito came over here! We watched PS I Love You and of course whipped out the craft basket!

After hinting for many months, Anito finally slept over with us. :)
At 2 am, there was a giant roachie creeping across my floor, but I killed him no prob.
I ate some yummo quinoa and berries for brekkie then we beached!

It was cloudy though, so then we got ready to bus it to Kaneohe since we sold our car.
TheBus… always an adventure. It was not bad at all this time. I have puked before on there though. It was kind of awesome. TheBus is cool beans though. By the way, Anita’s head isn’t actually that small as the picture shows. hehe

We went to the mall and Ross and shopped. I didn’t feel like shopping or doing much at all. I don’t like feeling like that. Nope.
But I did by a cutesy dress and some yummy yummy dark dark chocolate. I love dark choco. So twas successful.
And of course it’s always lovely playing with these two girls, especially when Anito has werthers in her mouth. :)
We bussed it back home, went to Foodland, and got some serious mango sorbet, Sissy’s new favorite.

Then fun fun fun…!
Beach photoshoot complete with sun hat, giant rainbow umbrella, ukulele, and beach swing!

I love Matilda Hilda Ukulele.
And I very much love life here in Hawaii,
especially fun times with Anito (newly brunette) and Sister!

I am so sad to leave BYUH 20th ward. I love this ward so so much.
   It was so sad to have our last Relief Society presidency meeting this morning. I’m not ready to be done with that. And I was quite sad in my last PEC meet for a while too. I really love those meetings. I have so enjoyed my Sundays full of meetings and visits.

   It was especially sad when the ward sang Aloha Oe to those of us who are leaving this week. And the bishopric came around and put leis on all of our necks during the song… ah I will miss this place, and this ward, and especially my current bishopric, and especially Bishop. He is the greatest.
   I’ve learned so much from him. And he taught the lesson today during Priesthood/Relief Society and it was so good. He talked a lot about happiness (my favorite thing) and how the Gospel is our source of complete happiness. True true. And I love the Gospel too.
   And in a few weeks I’ll be finding out where I’ll preach it! :D

I love mangoes.
Especially when I get to pick them fresh off my friend’s mango tree after playing a sweet round of bananagrams!

Amidst our recent times of fresh mangoes, we have also had a few more cockroach encounters. Fortunately we’ve just found them dying on their backs. 

I’ve also decided that I really like stripes, though not necessarily in this quantity, and it is most likely best to not wear such an outfit in public, even to a Wizard of Oz play.

Stacy has been doing a bit of riding of bike lately. I love it. She must love it too. Seriously who wouldn’t?

Life is splendid for me, here and now, and forever more. 

We sold our car today.
So perfectly it worked out.
I love when things work out; it seems to happen that way a lot for me.
Tis lovely a nice envelope full of cash now. I’ve missed cash. :)
But now I miss Wilma.

Mahalos to our car Wilma for facilitating muchos adventuring for us around the blessed isle.

-Mahalos to Elder Thompson, for bringing so many very random jokes and funnies to the world, and especially to ward council and Sunday School.
-Mahalos to Sister Thompson, for being such a wonderful Relief Society mentor and for giving my presidency and I yummy cookies tonight.
-Mahalos to the Remunds, for supporting 20th ward in every way and for being such wonderful people. They will be so missed when they leave in a month.

{Here’s my old Relief Society, my first one here at school. I love this RS so much. But I especially love so so much the one we have now and the one from Winter. Ah I love those sisters muchos.}

Only one more Sunday in BYUH 20th ward. I am so sad about that. Oh I will miss it so, during church stuffs the entiiiire day, visiting sisters, meeting with Bishop, planning things with presidency,  meetings galore, learning lots and lots… it’s the best. What a glorious five months this has been.

I must go learn this lovely song.
Would you like the sheet music?

By the way, when did I become a senior??
Weird.
