Trunks and Trip

Yeah, I'm getting huge. Yeah right. When we moved to the islands, we used these very strong but very light plastic trunks we bought from Wal-mart. Since there are no closets in our house, we use the trunks for storage, so we have them everywhere. We gave some of...

Blogger In Training

Bet when you saw the title of today's entry, you figured Bobby was teaching one of the kids to take over the blog. You'd be wrong – it's me, Angie! I'm giving this blogging thing another shot, now that my schedule is so “freed up!” Actually, in the past...

Ideas

If you have known me for any length of time, you probably know that I am an idea guy. I love ideas. The other day, I walked into the kitchen and said to Angie, “Hey, I just had an idea.” She said, “I should have known you just took...

Tuna Fried Noodles

One of our friends invited us to her house last night for dinner. She made tuna fried noodles. The tuna was dried tuna and added a really nice flavor. She made sure that Kyndal did not have any chilies in hers.nKyndal commented on the fish in our host's aquarium...

Just Werds

The islands are not known for their poofreading skills. It's always fun to look over a cafe menu to see what we can find. Often times sandwich is two words – sand witch, cheese is spelled chesses and seafood is often spelled see food. It gives us something to...
