Target and Mail Drop

Tonight my friend and I headed to Target so I could get a few pictures developed.  To kill some time we walked around and I and I found these cute sandals for my daughter.  They were also having a BOGO sale!  I got a size 2 and 3 since my daughter will most likely get bigger pretty quick.  They're so cute and I love that they're pink!  

Anywho, the pictures I got developed at Target took less than an hour.  Now that I got the pictures I'm all set to get my husband's envelope ready.  Sometimes when they are underway us wives/girlfriends have a "mail drop."  That's basically getting to send our husband's an 8x11" envelope filled with letters, pictures, etc.  My husband requested a fitness and money magazine along with new pictures of his daughter and I.  Since Father's day is coming up and he'll still be gone I decided to throw in his first Father's day card.  I'll also include a letter.  I'm so excited to get this done and send it to our Ombudsman back in SD so she can sent it off to the boat.  I'm glad that he'll get to see pictures of his daughter standing, eating new foods, etc.  He misses out on so many things being in the Navy.  But I'm gonna do my best to keep him up to date on everything going on in our life.  

Tiffany's, Snow Factory, and Sushi Company (05/22/11)

Today I finally hanged out with one of my good guy friends.  It's been a while since we got to hang out so it was nice.  (Sorry for the lack of pictures).  First we decided to go to Ala Moana and check out Tiffany's.  While walking through the food court I bumped into my in-laws so we sat down with them for a bit to talk.  I wish I brought my daughter so they could have saw her but she was at home since my brother offered to babysit.  

Anyways, it was my second time ever visiting Tiffany's.  We wanted to see their selection of wedding rings since he's planning to propose to his girl friend soon.  I couldn't believe how expensive their rings cost.  With all of my rings combined (promise ring, engagement ring and wedding band) it was still less compared to one of their cheapest engagement rings.  Gosh!  So crazy.  He didn't buy any of the rings but did get some quotes so he could think more about it.

Next stop was Snow Factory (they don't have an actual site so the link is to their reviews on Yelp).  This place is unique compared to other shave ice places on Hawaii.  They make the ice paper thin so it just melts in your mouth.  The prices are fair and they also provide free dry/crumbled toppings (oreos, chocolate chip cookies, ritz crackers, gummi bears, etc).  

My first time at Snow Factory I shared a lycee shave ice with my girl friends.  This time I got their number one regular selling shave ice, Strawberry and Vanilla.  I also added homemade mochi, oreos and chocolate chip cookies.  It was delicious! 

On our way home I was still hungry considering the shave ice was all I ate so far.  So we stopped by Sushi Company because their garlic chicken is amazing.  I ordered my usual, the garlic chicken bento.  Both places are located in McCully so if you're ever in the area I suggest trying them out.   

Just Tacos and Walmart

So Cristine and I had another spontaneous girl's night out again.  She took me to Just Tacos located in Pearl city.  I don't eat Mexican food that much but I enjoyed it.

After dinner we decided to walk off our full tummies at Walmart.  While walking around I stumbled onto this turnable.  I really wanted it, but don't have any room/use for it at the moment.  If I hadn't bought my makeup organizer I would've used it for that or even for my nail polishes but my collection is back in SD.  Oh wells.

I didn't realize how light I am.  LOL

California Rock 'N Sushi, Forever 21 & Shokudo!

Today my girl friend and I went out to hang out and have fun.  First I took her to dinner in Wards at California Rock 'N Sushi since she's never gone there before.  

We ordered the catepillar roll and some spicy tuna type of roll.

We also got edamame (soy beans) and "kickin chicken"  It was just like buffalo wings, but not really.

Our next stop was Ala Moana.  At Forever 21 we wanted to play w/ the hair accessories.  You can really seen mine but it was a hairband w/ some brown feathers attached to it while Cristine wore a headband w/ a bow.  

Next was another headband on me and a hat on Cristine.

After making room in our tummies for dessert, we walked to Shokudo.

Nom nom!  We got the cookies n cream honey toast.  It was so good.  

This was all that was left.  LOL.  We couldn't finish it all.

Just our chopsticks from both restaurants.  =)

SB Sessions!

Oh how I've missed these.  It's been nice hanging out w/ good friends.  Sometimes you just need to get away and have fun.  The SB sessions has changed A LOT from the first time I went to one but it's okay.  Change is inevitable.  I'm just glad I can still see my friends and have a good time.
