It's That Time of Year Again

Being teachers, our years are ruled by the school year and not the typical calendar year.  This unfortunately means that at the end of each school year more people leave the island.  On Sunday, we had two aloha parties.
Kristen, who I started teaching with at Ilima 8 years ago is headed to Europe to travel and back to New Jersey where her family is at the end of the summer.  It is sad to see her go but it is for the best I know!

The kids loved running around in the park and found there own toys since we didn't bring any...oops!
They played a pick up football game


Boche Ball


And my favorite...beer can chew toys
 After an afternoon in the park we headed out to Ewa Beach for our second going away party of the day.  Cory also worked with us at Ilima.  Matt and Cory worked on the same team for a number of years and Cory has been a huge help with my dissertation since he just finished his PhD.  Cory got a job on the mainland as a professor! They are moving next week.  They had a huge bounce house at the party.  Abby went in and didn't come out until it was time to go.  Zack even gave it a try. 

 We were in the flight path and Zack got so excited every time a plane flew over.
