Movin' On, A Tribute


During our last week Shanae took pictures of us, and here is one sample.

Living in Hawaii has been the greatest two years of our lives. We were able to truly live in paradise. Rob didn't get a chance to appreciate "paradise" till after he graduated because all he ever knew was school, work, and church. Our next post will be a blog of things we did during our last week in Hawaii, so you can see how beautiful it was. We could not have asked for better weather for all of our activities. We are going to miss all of the friends that we have made, and are grateful for a family's kindness to take us in and give us a place to stay for 10 days while we were homeless.

We landed safely in Los Angeles on Monday and are now staying in Ventura with the Biglers. We are enjoying catching up with them and their cute little baby Aubree. We are headed out to go kayaking and on a picnic today. Ventura, California is beautiful!

Take 3

Things are winding down here in Hawaii. Yesterday was my last day at work :( and today is Rob's last day of finals :). We've sold almost everything and are starting to empty out our apt.

I went to the dentist last Friday to get my teeth cleaned and the dentist told me, "Well, I need to see you one more time before you move because you have 2 cavities." Boooo! So today I'm going to get those filled.

Joy.

I used to be so proud of my teeth but now I think I'm up to 6 cavities.

This brings me to the title of this post.

I am taking 3 cavities with me from Hawaii.
Rob is taking 3 scars.





What will you be taking when you leave Hawaii or wherever you live?

The good news is I've been flossing everyday for a week.

Yay.
