Aloha friends! I hope you’ve all had a great week. Somehow October is flying by, and it feels like the holidays are just leaning hard against our front door waiting to knock it down and burst right in. (Anyone else out there feeling that way?) And if you’re one of those who already has your Christmas cards addressed and shopping done, please don’t be telling me about it. I’m just trying to get out the door today to hunt down something for my boys to dress in for Halloween/”Fall Festival.”
Before I go, here’s some FRIDAY FAVORITES:
1. Favorite Instagram:
2. Favorite laugh: Click on THIS LINK for the funniest “test” I’ve ever taken to know whether or not you’re ready to have children. If you normally pass these up, please DON’T! In fact, grab your spouse and read it together, and I promise you’ll laugh until you cry.(Thanks to our Aussie friend from LakeLivesLife for passing it along!)
3. Favorite New Sponsors: If you’ve noticed, this month I have a couple new little buttons on my side bar…I do hope you pay them a visit to see what they’re all about:
This blog is a fantastic resource for families on Oahu, or those planning to visit. Nicole does such a great job of keeping us all up-to-date on all of the fun activities and events on the island. If you’re looking for something fun to do with your family, you’ll want to make this your go-to place! Also find her throughout the day on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram (@HIkidsCALENDAR)
Treehouse just opened this fall, and they’ve got new stuff going on every time I check their site! This creative shop for kids & adults is the kind of place your whole family would love–with great brands of creative art supplies, tees, and unique merchandise that are not easy to find. (Even carrying EZ Ryder Originalz complete skateboards now!) Find Treehouse on Facebook and keep up with their latest!
4. Favorite Weekend plans:
The Menehune Surf contest wraps up! Lukey gets his chance to compete in the semi-finals this weekend. The waves are forecasted to be HUGE, so pray for my little grom! We think he’ll do great, and you can always check in on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter to keep up. (What DID we do before iPhones? I’m pretty excited about modern technology. Which leads me to…
5. Favorite birthday Present! I got an iPad! In fact, I’m finishing this post on it now! So, feel free to give me all of your suggestions on best apps (toddler apps, please!) and anything else I should know.
Much Aloha to all of you! Have an awesome weekend, and check in Sunday to share in some Inspiration.
With Aloha,
Grommom.

That test was hilarious.
It would be unaustralian not to suggest you get Levi into watching the wiggles on YouTube on your iPad. Hopefully it keeps him entertained for hours!
Thanks for the link too!
