Fukubukuro

That's my new Japanese word.... I've been talking about it on Facebook and have made a few inquiries as to the actual event.  From what I am told it is a Japanese tradition of retailers selling "Happy Grab Bags" these grab bags are filled with merchandise that is double the value of the contents.  From what I understand from a couple of people that have attended this event at the Ala Moana mall it is well worth the time and effort.  I only have one problem....its only held on the first, January 1st and this year it falls on a Sunday.  Which means I may have to choose between church and this event.  I wouldn't really be that big of a deal but I did just move our records over to our new ward here in Hawaii and of course this would be our first Sunday as members of the ward.  I would hate to think we are no shows because I was too busy shopping at the mall .

We're here.

We are officially here.  We're here in Hawaii things are moving quickly.  The office has been our priority we've been running non stop buying and setting things up.  Our little condo has suffered with no luxurys not even a real bed but the office is setup and moving forward.  Hope to have pictures up soon
