Sushi & Fishin'

We have had a fun week preparing for 40+ family and friends coming to town. The larger part of the group is in town for Matt & Angela's wedding at the Plantation House (the first wedding I've planned on Maui where I actually know the bride and groom!) which will happen at sunset on Monday. My  Mom and Doug are also in town to celebrate their 5th (?) year anniversary! It feels like yesterday her cake was delivered from the bakery and it showed up baby pink (supposed to be ivory!) so I covered the thing with flowers and voilà a baby pink cake with flowers. Hahaha..

Anyway...we went to our favorite sushi place Sansei and sat at the sushi bar--YUM! Complete with Starfruit Dessert. 

One night Mike wanted to go night fishing, so he folded the seat down in the 4runner and made me a bed-- it even had throw pillows! 

He backed it up right to the edge of the water and we played cards and watched the moon set while we waited for the little bell on his fishing pole to ding and tell us there was a fish on the line (for the record-- the only time it "dinged" was when an eel stole the octopus bait from the hook). The moon sank into the horizon just like the sun does. Is this completely normal and I'm the only one who's never seen it?! It happened at midnight and was one of the coolest things!
