i talked to my cute nephew jacob today...for the first time in a year sad but so exciting!

I can't believe how cute he is and how much he has grown.

I asked him what he did at school today

his response "i colored a picture, i did good"
k: 'i bet you did good'
j: 'yeah i know!'

hahahaha

the rest of the conversation was me asking questions and him saying yeah...except when he told me he has a lot of presents at home haha

i cant wait to give this kid kisses again!

a random thought about my gpa

I had this other random family thought last night that I told Bryce for the first time and realized how cool it sounded

My grandpa (my mom's dad/ grammie's husband) he passed away in 1994. I believe he was an engineer that designed planes...atleast that's what I remember my mom telling me. He was born in 1914...the only reason i know that is because I remember asking my mom if the Titanic sinking was still a big deal when Grandpa was born...ANYWAY

my grandpa...everett earl endicott (E3) was born and kind of raised in Illinois...when he was 14 he ran away from home and made his way to california.

On his way he met Bonnie and Clyde the infamous bank robbers!!

and i think my mom said he stayed with gypsies and learned how to read palms...

i think thats pretty rad...not many people can say they've done those things...I can't, BUT my grandpa can!

interesting facts

march madness

WOWZA's march is already here! this is crazy!

you'll never believe what happened this past saturday...february 27. we had a TSUNAMI warning! warning is worse than watch...warning means its coming. our neighbor came to the door at 2:30 in the AM pounding and calling my name. I got up and she just says 'did you get the warning? turn on your tv, there's a tsunami warning' and then she was gone. We got online did some searching and sure enough...there was a tsunami on its way. We packed up our valuables and headed out at 5:30 AM on our way to Aiea where Bryce's warehouse is. on our drive the sirens went off at 6 AM and those buggers are loud!! We got to the warehouse and waited

and waited

and waited

and waited

at 11:19 when the tsunami was expected to reach oahu nothing had happened. We were watching the news and there was a little bit of action in Hilo and then it was over...boring!!

We got the clear to go home at 1:30. we left, got home, unpacked and i slept!

that was the 2010 tsunami that i survived!


that day was our friend matt's birthday (lucky duck got a freakin tsunami for his birthday) and we went to their house to have a little celebration. I made a donut cake...they dont like cake but love donuts...and i know how to make donuts so that was my job!

When I was little my mom use to make us donuts on saturday mornings. we take the canned biscuits, cut them, shape them, whatever them and fry them...then you cover them in sugar, cinnamon, powdered sugar, and the other day i glazed them! i love these donuts im glad my mom is smart!
