Happy 4th of July!!


I hope everyone had a fantastic Independence Day! 
Zac was finally feeling back to normal on Saturday (after a bout with an unknown illness that kept him out of commission for 5 days!), so we ventured out of the house to Target and then to celebrate the holiday - my favorite! After picking up some last minute ingredients for a side dish and cupcakes, Zac and I cooked and went over to Steve and Marisol's house for dinner. We had spinach dip, dogs, burgers, party potatoes (because a party isn't a party with out party potatoes!), watermelon, potato salad, flag cake and red/white/blue cupcakes!
Zac, Steve, Marisol and I later walked down to Ala Moana park for the City of Honolulu fireworks show. It was fabulous! They had some new shapes I had never seen before - planet looking orbs, happy faces and peace signs. This particular show has been rated one of the top 10 in the nation for several years. It definitely did impress. I managed to capture the finale on my camera, so CLICK HERE to see it! On the walk back to the house, we walked along the pier and saw the biggest fish I have ever seen! A guy had caught a 10 foot, 585 lb marlin earlier that day. CLICK HERE to see! And for the rest of the pics from the night, CLICK HERE.
Happy birthday, America! Don't forget to thank all of our service men and women. :)
Me ke aloha, 
RAWE
