I AM NOW A NURSE

On Monday morning Nate and his bros decided to go cliff diving. Not something I would find enjoyable but they love it. His sister also jumped. While getting out, his sister lost her sandal. Nate jumped in to get it, just as a wave came barrelling in to shore. Nate was smashed into the rocks. The result? A fairly bad scraped knee and ankle and the skin totally ripped of one of his toes. Very disgusting. I have now turned into nurse Tricia. I have to clean and re glue (yes, re GLUE with crazy glue) his skin together and bandaged it up again. So gross. He is limping and has a black and blue toe (I think it is broken) but he is OK.

Today we went to the Dole Plantation. We ate some yummy pineapple ice cream and went through the HUGE maze. Then, after lunch we went to the beach. Again. I think the kids would go there every day and be happy. Josh and Merynn stayed in the water for the ENTIRE time we were there. After supper we took the kids to a movie.

On a side note, while driving to the beach, we stopped to watch the GINORMOUS waves at one point and those surfers are INSANE!!! Those waves are unforgiving! Also, as we were watching the surfers, we looked farther out in the ocean at there were whales jumping EVERYWHERE! It was like a whale party out there. It was incredible.
