As we speak, he is on a 13 hour flight to Taiwan and a few days later he heads to Japan to finish his island hoping.  Only this time, instead of sitting on a beach watching his kids frolic in the surf, he&#8217;ll be suited up and working in a clean room.  Poor guy.<\/p>\n<p>Yes, that&#8217;s right.  For the next two weeks, it&#8217;s just me and the girls.  And boy are we going to be busy.  Tomorrow is Leina&#8217;s first day at school and she is so excited.  I&#8217;m not so sure how I feel about the whole thing.  I know she&#8217;s ready but I&#8217;m still holding onto those apron strings pretty tightly.  Sniff.  I know she&#8217;ll have a blast but still&#8230;&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>So while Kevin is gone, I have a whole host of projects lined up to keep me busy.  First and foremost is finishing up Leina&#8217;s halloween costume.  Last year, I was up against the wire so this year I decided to start early.  She has selected Tinkerbell as her costume dujour and I&#8217;m sewing away.  I&#8217;m quite proud of it actually.  I didn&#8217;t realize how much I&#8217;ve improved during the last year but comparing last year&#8217;s costumes to this year is astounding.  It actually inspires me to keep on plugging away.  I&#8217;ll do my best to get some photos posted once the last hem is stitched so stay tuned!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I guess Kevin really liked island life because he&#8217;s continuing his island tour.
