Happy New Year

Happy New Year. We saw lots of fireworks from our driveway before going to bed at a decent hour. Today we went to the Bishop Museum. They have a lot of exhibits on Hawaiian history and culture as well as interactive displays on volcanoes. We caught the last weekend of their rotating exhibit on Dinosaurs. This T-Rex actually moved and growled!
Silas loved it, but their robotic dinosaurs' movements and sounds were a little too realistic for Ezekiel and he couldn't wait to get out of there after the first few displays.
Some Japanese tourists asked if they could take pictures of Keilah because she was so cute.
It was the most interesting dinosaur exhibit I've ever seen. They had the robotic dinosaurs as well as real bones and a table where kids could use brushes to uncover their own dinosaur. FUN!

KEILAH TURNS ONE!!!

Our precious Keilah turned one year old today. She wanted to touch the fire instead of blow it out. She's very cute when she blows something, but she doesn't see fire often.
She wasn't sure what to do with the cupcake at first.
But she figured it out pretty quickly.
And LOVED it! We sure love our Keilah!!!

Silas's Christmas program

I wish I could back-date these! On December 15th Silas's school had a Christmas program put on by the Kindergarteners. Silas and his best friend Rosco were the Narrators! All the kids sang "Mele Kalikimaka", then each class sang a Christmas song - Silas's class sang "Santa Likes to do the Hula". Silas had everything memorized and performed beautifully.

Merry Christmas

What is more merry at Christmas time than the sound of children laughing! Keilah loves to be "chased". She's getting to be a good walker, but not a runner yet.

The kids (and parents) loved all their gifts and we had a nice time at home together. We hope your Christmas was filled with joy and laughter too.

Christmas Eve Eve Beach Day

I new friend invited us to go to the beach and it turned out to be a gorgeous day! I thought the water was freezing, but Silas jumped right in.
Ezekiel usually just plays in the sand unless I get him into the water.
Keilah ate a lot of sand. At least she looked pretty doing it.

Christmas dress

Keilah in her Christmas dress all ready for church. I know... she's BEAUTIFUL (just a little biased though)

Kids at the Park

The kids at the park a couple of weeks ago: They had a blast!
