August Catch Up

August came and went pretty quickly, we started out the month with jumping off Waimea Rock which you can read about here
This month Joey caught us an OCTOPUS!! That's right folks my husband is an octopus hunter! He went out with some friends (i had to work, boo) they used hand spears and they hunted the elusive octopus. Joey thought he caught one once but then realized he had speared a giant sea snail! OOPS! He finally caught one, brought it home and used it's guts for fishing bait. We were going to eat the octopus but it ended up sitting in our freezer for to long. We did however BBQ another friends octopus and man oh man was it delicious!! Boiled in coconut water, grilled on the grill.. lip smackin good I tell you!
there she is :)

The month of August also brought us a new home! We upgraded from our wee little room with a bed to a place that has an actual sink and full sized fridge! It is such a blessing to have the simplest of things.. check out the place!
this is the view from the front door

we have a sink!!

our full size fridge and our little kitchen area :)
our bed, which is right behind our couch and right next to our desk!!
 Joey jumped off Laie point, and he does is a lot!

We spent a lot of time at the beach, duh we live in Hawaii, and we met Roberts new dog, Kona!!
We love her, and are a little jealous, we want a puppy.

isn't she cute??
We also ventured down the east side towards the end of this month. We drove down kam hwy and found Makapu'u beach and look out spot. This is also where there is a lighthouse that you can hike up to (don't worry, it's on our list of stuff to do!). The beach was gorgeous and looked like a fun place to spend a day. When we drove a little further we found the look out which gave us a great place to take pictures and we adventured a little bit and found these old war look outs in the side of the cliff face. Of course we climbed a little and crawled into one!!

Well I think that pretty much sums up all the fun stuff we did in August, at least I can't seem to think of anymore. Now on to Septembers catch up blog we go, see you there!!

love, the williams
