Weekly Wrap Up | 9/24/23

Aloha friends!

We are in the last week of September! Wow!

So last week I spent worrying about my mom. Her doctor fit her into his schedule on Friday and he took more samples from her, he can see no tumors so we are hoping for good news. Also my dad’s 70th birthday was on Wednesday but we are going over to their house today to celebrate. I’m bringing ice cream cake – yum! It’s still so hot here in Hawaii, but the days are starting to get shorter which signals fall. My kids will have fall break in 2 weeks which is nice but we aren’t doing much during break since we are planning our family vacation during Thanksgiving instead.

Speaking of our upcoming vacation – I had to buy our Universal Studios Japan tickets and yikes they are expensive. I haven’t brought my kids to any major theme park yet, so this will be their first experience in Japan. Their number one thing is to visit Nintendo World and of course my husband wants to visit Harry Potter world. Me…I’m just there to experience it all since we had to pay so much for it. 😅 I’m trying to plan the rest of the trip – like I definitely want to check out Kyoto and Nara while we are there. I’m also excited it will be fall – I hope we get to see some autumn foliage!

I can’t say I got much reading done. I was mentally exhausted, but I’m finally getting my motivation back!

Anyway, hope you have a good week!
