More pics from the Griff's visit.......

I still don't know why my back hurts.........:)By far the worst wipeout so far, walked away with a bleeding foot and leg (which made Aubry not want to get in the water anymore because of sharks:) LOL! Plus a broken fin on my surfboard.

Well, it's a sad day......

Look at the nerds that were sitting behind us on the train at the Dole Factory!

Well, the Griffeths have come and gone. We have had so much fun with them and were so glad that they got to come visit us in paradise. At one point it almost felt as if we were all out here on vacation together and were suppose to return home to NYC together also. I do have to say that Aubry got the 1st place trophy in surfing, Shanny with the Silver medal and Josh with the bronze:) Josh seemed to come in last in almost everything he did in Hawaii. (golf, surfing, etc.) Thanks for the King-Size candy bar, fountain soda and bucket of Diet Pepsi, I think you still owe me $1.60!!!!!!! Maybe next time! We sure do miss you guys and can't wait to see you again!!! If you ever want to quit your job, you always have a place to stay. We'll be posting more once our ghetto computer and camera will work with us. Muchos Maholos D.B.'s

TWO MORE WEEKS for the Griffeths!!!

Shanny and Kaleb on the Boogie-Board!
Kyler just being Kyler!

Brokeback Mountain meets the NHL! As you can tell by the red face, I'm a little out of shape:) My little Tomboy!! She's a BOISE STATE FAN!!!!

Hello everybody, sorry we haven't posted for awhile but things have been a little crazy lately. Since posting last Shanny has gotten a part time job working the front desk at Regis Hair Salon. It's pretty nice because it gives her a little break but it's a big change because we are so use to having lots of time together. Call me MR. MOM! Who would have thought that after living in ID, UT and the North East that I would learn to play ice hockey in HI. We are getting so excited for the Griffeths to come. I just found out that they will be medically discharging me so we'll probably only be here for another 6-8 months or so. Even though we have only be here about two months, we have all fallen in love with it here. It's just to bad that it is so expensive out here. If there is any way that we can find a way to afford to stay, we probably will but I more than likely see us moving back to the great Gem State! Well I hope all is well with everybody and we sure do miss you all. Hope to hear from you soon.

This just in...........

The Griffeth's have scooped in and taken first place right out of the hands of Christy and Ian in the race to win the sacred title of the "ALDRICH's BEST BUDS"!!!! At 5:30 a.m. Hawaiian Standard time, Aubry called and notified Shannon that they will be coming to visit us in OCTOBER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thus meaning that they will have a full two month head start on Christy and Ian's December trip! This putting Christy and Ian in a far behind second place and as we all know from when "No Fear" shirts were cool, Second place is the first LOSER!!!! Well folks, that is it for today, the bronze medal is still up for grabs. Thank you and good night!!!

New @ Sea World, the SURFING WHALE!

Yes, it's true, in Hawaii, even whales surf! Kaleb had his first day of school on Tuesday, despite being 1 of 2 white kids in the class, he did really good. For those of you who have not seen Susie and Taylor's blog lately probably haven't seen that Susie just completed a race. Shannon and I were one of the lucky ones who got to watch Susie race. Susie did really good, we were able to take a picture of her right as she crossed the finishline. You can tell how excited she is by the look on her face. I just want to say #18, you're my idol!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's no South Beach but........

We went to the beach today, as we'll probably do pretty often:) I do have to say that without the tampons and trash, Christy and Shannon reading their magazines while Ian and I chase the kids around, the beach just isn't the same. Ian and Christy took the lead in the BEST BUD category, they booked tickets and will be visiting in December! Can't wait!! I started work on Monday, I do have to say, I think I'm allergic to work:) Hope all is well and there is still time to place second in the BEST BUD category!

We have finally arrived!!!!!

Hello everybody, we have finally arrived in paradise. We have been here for a week and love it so far (minus my speeding ticket-SH*$!!!!) We just found a nice townhome that we will be moving into on the 23rd of this month. Of course the pictures have the owners stuff in it, I don't want all of you to say that I"m wishy-washy and bought all new stuff! After watching the MLB All-Star game and seeing NY, it made both of us a little home sick. We'll keep you updated but we miss everybody lots!
