Arizona

Well, it seems that my time on the mainland is over for a while at least. I arrived back on Oahu today around 12:00 Hawaii time, and have been trying to settle in before school starts tomorrow. Before I left I was able to have one last adventure with my sister Alicia, her husband Cameron, and their daughter Hailey in sunny Arizona. We did all sorts of things from seeing the new X-Files movie to swimming, eating out, shopping, watching movies, and best of all playing with my adorable niece...

The picture says it all!

This is by the fountain at Cameron and Alicia's apartment complex. Notice Hailey's shirt? It says, "Don't make me call my Aunt!" I bought it for her before she was even born, and make her wear it each time I visit. She looks so cute in it!

Getting ready to hit the pool with my favorite little swimmer

Cannonball!!!!

Dunking Alicia in the pool

Alicia and I created a syncronized swimming routine and I think it turned out quite alright if I do say so myself. I only charge $50 an hour for those of you wondering :)!

We ended my trip with some really good but really expensive Mexican food. Hailey was a little silverware thief!
