Congratulations Brittani Nichole Mitchell! We love you and we are so proud of you! Our very first graduate of the Mitchell clan.

 OUT WITH THE OLD

 IN WITH THE NEW.

I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY MY DAUGHTER THAT WE ARE JUST ALIKE IN CERTAIN WAYS. ONE IS THAT WE GET TIRED OF CARS ABOUT EVERY TWO YEARS. 

THIS IS TRUE, BUT FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER I BOUGHT A OLDER CAR THEN I OWNED BEFORE. THE LAST FEW MONTHS WE HAVE HAD OUR SHARE OF CAR ISSUES. IT ALL STARTED WITH DEVIN'S CAR CATCHING ON FIRE THE NIGHT BEFORE HE LEFT FOR HAWAII. THEN CAME TREVOR'S ISUZU'S TRANSMISSION GOING OUT FOR THE 3RD TIME. SO THE ISUZU WENT TO THE GRAVE YARD AND IN CAME THE 2000 CAMRY.

 I AM TRYING TO BE SMART AND GET RID OF A CAR PAYMENT. SO OUT WENT MY MURANO AND IN CAME MY NEW/OLD SEQUOIA. I THINK I FEEL WEIRD THOUGH DRIVING THIS ONE AROUND WITH ALL THESE SEATS AND NO PASSENGERS. 

I'M FEELING AS IF I SHOULD GET INTO THE CAR BUSINESS, BECAUSE I LOVE CARS SO MUCH. 

Trick or Treat

San Francisco

SAN FRANCISCO

 LIBBY MADE A GREAT ANNOUNCEMENT THIS WEEKEND

Goodbye Devin

Aloha Hawaii

 I FEEL LIKE I HAD THE GREATEST VACATION EVER!

USUALLY WHEN WE GO ON VACATION IT IS GO GO GO

AND NO RELAXING.

THIS TRIP I WANTED TO RELAX , AND THAT WE DID.

 FIRST SUNSET IN MAUI FROM WAILEA

 SNORKELING IN KAPALUA

WE ME THE NICEST COUPLE FROM MICHIGAN.

HIS NAME WAS MIKE AND ACCORDING TO HIM WE

SHOWED HIM THE TRIP OF A LIFETIME. HE WAS A

LITTLE DRUNK THOUGH. WE SAW THE BIGGEST TURTLE I 

HAVE EVER SEEN THERE. I WISH I HAD A PICTURE OF HIM AND OF MIKE

THE TURTLE WAS LONGER IN LENGTH THAN TREVOR WHEN HE WAS NEXT TO IT.

 I JUST HAD TO GET A FACEBOOK POSE IN.

I HATE WHEN PEOPLE POSE WITH THEIR ARM LIKE THIS.

 SEVEN POOLS WAS SO BEAUTIFUL AFTER THE LONG ROAD TO HANA

 BEST PIZZA IN MAUI

 OUR CUTE CONDO IN PUNALUU'

 DEVIN SIGNING IN AT BYUH

 HIS LITTLE CUBICAL 

 BRITT AND I WERE ONLY ALLOWED IN THE FIRST NIGHT.

 BRITT READ 3 BOOKS WHILE WE WERE THERE

 WE HAD THE MOST BEAUTIFUL MOONRISE EVERY NIGHT 

AND SUNRISE IN THE MORNING.

 WHO CAN NOT GO TO TED'S. WE WENT TWICE AND 

GOT A WHOLE PIE TOO.

 WAIKIKI SUNSET AND SURFING.

THE WAVES WERE UP ON THE SOUTH SHORE SO WE WENT TO SURF THERE.

IT WAS THE CRAZIEST EVER. THEY WERE FILMING THE SEASON OPENER FOR

HAWAII FIVE 0

IT WAS WALL TO WALL PEOPLE.

I KNOW THIS IS WHY PEOPLE SAY THEY DON'T LIKE OAHU.

THEY NEED TO GO TO THE NORTH SHORE.

IT IS MY FAVORITE! WAIKIKI SUCKS

 DEVIN'S NEW ROOMATE ISSAC MUNUZ FROM SPAIN
