Sunday, 26 August 2012:
Our Sunday tradition of venturing to Honolulu to our breakfast nook dwindled exponentially over the last few weeks. We'll we've gone, we haven't done so a consistently as we'd like. Today perpetuated that trend. Neither Nick nor I could pull ourselves from our comfy covy bed. It was a snuggle up and drift in and out of sleep morning.
So once we did manage to pry ourselves out from under our blankets (partially because the sun was warning the house and we were sweaty, and partially because Nick jump up with determination to not lose our Sunday), we made blueberry scones and fresh fruit for breakfast. A little feast at our very own dining room table.
We met a few of our friends down at the Lagoons around mid-morning and played with little miss Halle. She's a little ham and we love it!
Nick and I wandered back to our neighborhood around noon, already three hours of sun-kissed bliss before lunch.
As we cooled off at our house, we found some pre-season football and I made a big pot of chili. Sure it's 86 degrees out but it's Sunday and there was football on, damnit.
To avoid the whole sweating-while-eating (and subsequently feeling fat) feeling, Nick and I indulged in our central air system (that we never turn on).
A little post chili nap, a long run around Ko Olina town, and a gym adventure later, Nick and I ended our Sunday poolside in our neighborhood with a cooler full of cheese, pepperoni, salad, and fruit with strawberries, blueberries and raspberries. We read one of our favorite blogs, snacked on our lite dinner and then completed our dinner date in the hot tub and then the pool. We ... we were actually chilly on our walk home!
I will quote my Nicholas when I say: "It's days like today when we should say, 'thanks, Army'... but not too loudly. We don't want the army to hear us."
