I've been doing lots of stuff lately, I just haven't blogged much. So I tossed up some slide shows so you could all see what I've been up to!
Halloween was pretty fun. Down in Lahaina every year there is a HUGE party. They block off the streets and everyone roams around in costume. Some call it the Mardi Gras in Maui. It really is wild and most everyone is dressed up. A lot of people take the opportunity to see how little they can wear without being actually naked. It was crazy! But it was fun. I can't wait to go next year and dress up in my Wonder Woman costume!! I know I'll be the coolest kid there :)
One thing I have always wanted to do is volunteer for Habitat for Humanity and I got the chance to do that this last weekend. I really like the idea of helping people to get a house when they otherwise might not be able to. I loved being on a construction site and actually understanding what they were trying to accomplish. Early on in the day I volunteered to cut some wood and that became my permanent post for the day. I cut all the lumber (2x4's) for the framing around the windows for the house we were working on and the house that was going to be built next. It was SO fun!! We got about three complete walls up so it was nice to see some progress after being out there pretty much all day. I recommend anyone to volunteer for this very worthy cause!!
Other than that I've just been working and trying to play as much as possible! I'm really starting to miss everyone from back home... I wish someone would get on a plane and come visit me!!
