The Great Month Home & HAWAII!!!

So there is alot to catch up on!! So lets start with Trent coming home for Christmas. Trent had perfect timing coming home he got to come home for Christmas and New Years! Christmas was really great because we got to spend alot of time with both sides of the family, and it sure was a special Christmas. I got a beautiful necklace and some really nice running shoes from Trent, and Trent got a snowmobiling helmet and some running shoes from me!! We also got a really pretty kitchen table from my parents which we are really excited to use! Christmas was great and one we won't forget!!!

So after Christmas we just got to hang out with our family till the 13th and then it was off to Hawaii!! Hawaii is great and it has been such a learning experience for us. We haven't got a house yet, and it could be a long time till we get one so for now we are making our home and the Honolulu Airport Hotel! I'm about to go crazy because this is such a small hotel but we don't have to pay for anything so it is pretty nice! The first few days we were here we didn't have a car and it was really frustrating to both of us having to take the bus where ever we needed to go so we decided to go car shopping. Car shopping is probably the most frustrating thing ever, and we spend two whole days dealing with different car salesman and finding cars we really loved and getting our excitment crushed by not having the credit to finance one until we found it!! We found a 98 Honda Civic for only 4 grand!! We bought it and we are so excited!! It has made the experience so much better to go out and be able to explore where ever we want to!! We were both very excited because it was the first big thing that we have bought together!!

So other then all that crazy stuff going on we have just been enjoying the time here together, Trent got a four day weekend this weekend because of Martin Luther King Day so we got to go explore the island and sit on the beach. Today Trent had to go back to work and I have to sit at the hotel alone all day without a car, so that is kind of a bummer, but when we get a house and finally get to put our life together I think that this is going to be a awesome experience! It has been really hard and we miss our families more then anything, but how many people can say they moved to Hawaii right after they were married?! We love Utah and miss it alot but neither of us can really complain when we are sitting on the beach in 80 degree wheather and getting a sun tan!! We'll keep everyone updated on the housing thing and anything else going on but for now it is just kinda a waiting game!!!
