Fun times

Tamara and I nearly went peeps in our pants on this day. Braden fell asleep in the car and his new car seat is hard to sleep in. We tried everything to keep him from breaking his neck, while driving down the road. We tried to tie his head to the back of the car seat. We tried stuffing the seatbelt up to hold his head up and he kept moving and dislodging everything. It was SO funny. Oh, the other pictures are of Braden with Siven and Leighton, "AKA" Kaena. Also, Rayann's new hair-do that I can't stand. Luckily, kids hair grows fast.

Our cuties!!

Okay, Rayann took a pair of safety scissors and decided to give herself a haircut. I don't know any little girl that hasn't attempted this. However, I wasn't happy about it. Her hair was almost below her shoulder blades before this and now it is SO SHORT. Braden is growing so fast and has become such an awesome little man. Uncle Don plays so wonderfully with the kids, as you can see in the picture. It has been great having him here. Hope everyone is happy and healthy. Aloha to all!

Beach Day

Aloha! Grandpa Paul and Auntie Psalms accompanied us to the beach yesterday and had a great time. Siven and Leighton were so much fun. Doesn't Psalms's belly look great?

K.....,gotta use the imagination. Rayann and Braden are playing mailman. They take the toy car and ride all around the kitchen and
then come and ring the door bell and say "mail is here" and then take turns. It's rather funny.

Rayann is gettin good at swimming with her floaties at Auntie Amanda and Uncle Nathan's house. She loves being there with Alan and her family. It's so inspirational for her to watch the big kids swim. She started doing this in one day.

Family fun!!!!

Wow, this last week has been an eventful one. Heidi, Chris, Hailey, Britten, Brittany, and her boyfriend Joe all came out to visit from California. We had Easter at our house and it was so much fun. We were able to go to Nathan and Amanda's for a pool party as well. We also went to pizza one night and have been going to the beach often. We celebrated Paul and Hailey's birthdays too. It's been so wonderful getting to know Britten and Hailey better. Rayann and Hailey have become good buds. It's going to be sad when they leave today. We have definately made memories that will last forever. Today, we are all going to the zoo, so there will be more pictures to post soon. Aloha to all!

Valley of the Temples

A friend from "way back when," Sarah Robles, was here on the island and spent her last day with the kids and I. We drove out to Kaneohe and went to a beautiful place called Valley of the Temples. It had lots of fish to feed and pently of culture. It really was a beautiful place. The kids had a great time and it was so good to see Sarah and her daughter.

Beautiful day at Bellows

K. Been working on figuring out the facebook thing. Don't think I can keep up with everything. So, one site is all I can do for now. Simon took the day off and we went to Bellows. The kids and I needed daddy's attention and we got it. I got to lay on the beach and Simon sat on the sand with the kids and buried them a few times. It was so beautiful.
