How gross is this?


I was organizing and cleaning our spare bedroom. In that room we have a bed, 2 night stands, a dresser and chest of drawers. While putting something away I noticed some white stuff ont he side of the dresser. Not just a little but quite a bit. I had this odd feeling it could be mold but the white appearance made me have second thoughts. I grabbed some Lysol wipes and wiped it down. Sure enough the towel was green, ugh. Had stuff on both sides. We are now on a mission to find a dehumidifier for our house.

Cherry Blossom Festival


What an absolutely amazing site. Although I did not go this year, I thought I would at least post pictures of the beautiful cherry blossom trees we saw last year in Nago. We were planning to go however the trip was the day after our evening out plus the weather had been extremely unpredictable. With that said we opted out of going. Hope fully Cesario and I will get to go next year.

Beauty


I had taken the girls to Torii Station to run around at our make shift dog park. On our way home I had to pull off for pictures. I have learned to carry my camera in my purse because you never know when a picture moment will arise.

Having been born and raised in Arizona I have been able to witness many beautiful sunsets. I never learned to appreciate them as I have living here in Okinawa. We get some of the most remarkable sunsets. Here is one of the many I will post.

Birthday Celebration Ends with a Bang!


What a month!! Celebrating started on January 9 when we had a small get together at home. Cesario knew he would not be here for my birthday again so he threw together a fun evening. I realized when he was planning this that he had not been around for my birthday since 2005 when he threw me a surprise party. He has been away each time after that. So I appreciated having a pre-party and having him here.

My actual birthday was on Thursday January 28. It just so happens that I recently moved jobs and my boss has the same birthday. His wife was so gracious and sent some yummy cupcakes and some amazing white and chocolate brownies. I had no plans for the day but the girls said we had to do something. Jocelyn, Valerie, Meredith and I went to dinner at Primos and had some pizza. We ended our evening off at Starbucks.

The month of celebrating came to an end on Friday when a group of 20 of us went to the Officer's Club. What a fantastic night!! I am still trying to figure out what was the most memorable part. Was it all my friends being there, the group of crazy pilots that kept us quite entertained and the list goes on.

On that note I realize that I am so thankful to have such wonderful friends. You all continue to help me grow as a person, create great memories and are there when I need you. Thanks to all of you!
