How The Broughs Roll
My husband Todd and I have our wonderful lives together and we love to share our adventures. We are a little funny, a little michievous, but we live life to the fullest right next to eachother.

In Havaiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
One of that last and best experiences Todd and I had in Hawaii was attending a Luau. Todd knew it was on my top 5 list so he got us VIP seats and we were off to Lahaina on the last night of our trip. The pork was delicious of course as it was baked in the underground oven. The dancing and costumes were phenomenal. If you ever go to Hawaii, never forget to visit a luau, it brings it all together.
But much like any other show piece, there was an MC that was beyond ham. It was only from him that you should really pronounce Hawaii, Havaiiiiiii and preferably sing it. After many Mai Thai's it only became more halarious.

It's difficult to see him here....don't worry we have plenty of videos.

The Connecticut Yeti & Friends
Some say when the Connecticut Yeti strikes, she strikes with catastrophic force! After bringing approximately 8 inches of snow (some totals over a foot in CT), and downing many trees and power lines, the Yeti stopped by The Donohues for a nice cold beer and some pumpkin carving late Sunday afternoon.
Luckily, there was a Ghostbuster, a Viking, and a lady from Massapequa there. Quigley was dressed up as a grouchy old man and Oona was dressed up as a hyperactive devil dog.

Pumpkins were carved and some took it too far.

Shivvery Snowy Samhain!!!!!
We have some pretty vivid memories of Trick or Treating in the snow back in Syracuse and Buffalo, but never in Connecticut. My favorite memory of one of those cold Halloweens was when I was probably 11 and Owen was 8. Mom came with us as a witch and her fake nose kept filling up with condensation and she would have to take it off and let it drip from time to time.
Well, we are grown ups now and looking forward to the day when we can have drippy, latex noses as our kids bump from house to house. But, I never expected to spend another Halloween in the snow.

Hard to believe that we were just here a month ago:
And woke up to this today:

Adventures Paddle Boarding
Paddle boarding was on my top 5 for Maui. Everywhere you look, everyone was doing it. I had first seen this on Mission Bay in San Diego, and I knew it was a Hawaiian favorite. IT WAS DIFFICULT! I've got some pretty good balancing skills, but this was crazy. Luckily, Alan rented one for the trip so we all got a shot!
Here are some shots from our day on the beach with the family and our go at paddle boarding.
This is me. It looks like I am close, but I felt that I was out too far. It takes a lot for me to get scared in water.
Todd aka, Island Man. He was really good at it.
