June update...

Well, we've now been here for over three months. In one sense it's gone fast and I can't believe it's already June, but in another sense it seems like much longer! We're out of our apartment and into a house. My job is going pretty well. I'm still getting used to working with the elderly population rather than children. It's a big change, but not a bad one. Jeremy is applying to get on with the fire department here. Devin is adjusting better to her new daycare. She's learning some Hawaiian words there, which is fun! We've all been busy getting settled in our house and making it feel like home. We're also trying to take time to relax and explore and enjoy Hawaii! We just went over to the other side of the island last weekend and spent the day at Hapuna Beach. We went with two other families we've met. It was lots of fun, but a very long day. Of course, we forgot to take any pictures! Jeremy spends his free time spear fishing and I've been snorkeling a couple times and really enjoy it. Devin is making lots of new friends. Luckily, most of the friends Jeremy and I have made so far have kids right around Devin's age group, which is great! We're starting to plan her 3-year birthday party for next month, and she's already very excited! We're hoping to get Romeo out here soon as part of her birthday present. We all miss our family and friends and Iowa, but we are liking it here. We can't wait to have you all come visit! We have an extra bedroom!
