Cafe Blake

Yesterday while I was working in the office Blake asked if I would like him to make me lunch. I was quite surprised and of course I said YES!!!! This is what he brought up to me 20 min. later. A cheese quesedilla on the bottom, shrimp tempura on top and a bowl of his famous Marinara sauce. Oh yes there was also a bowl of grapes(to balance out the carb attack) It looked so yummy. I definitely couldn't eat it all but it was such a touching gesture. Who knows, we might have our next Emeril in training with Blake.

Summertime fun at the Beach

Me , Myself and I

Do you ever just wake up in the morning and say" Oh my gosh, when did I get crows feet, All this gray hair, and sun spots too???"
I can't believe that I will be forty in 5 months. I don't feel that way on the inside. Sometimes I am still back at College having water fights with my roomates. BUT then I look around at my amazing children and husband and think It's great to be this age. I took these photos one night at about 11pm. during one of my marathon laundry nights. It's not the cutest picture in the world but it is who I am and who I will continue to be. ( Don't laugh too hard!)

Dillas graduation party

Dilla graduated from Kealakehe High School. She had a big party/Luau at one of the hotels. The cousins danced as well as Auntie Salote and Uncle Pai and also Grandma Sela. I was the money counter for all of the money dances. After two hours we counted over $6000.00 big ones. Hopefully this will be a great start to her future college days.

Friends for a minute

Don't you wish they could always get along this well!!

Sorry I have not blogged forever. Here are some of the pictures from our trip to AZ for David's last surgery.( WE Hope) He had a Pharyngeal Flap made which should be very beneficial to his speech and tongue placement. He had an amazing recovery....like 5 days...and he was ready to eat and play and have as much fun as he could before we came back home. Only David, Chantel, and I went to AZ soo I spoiled the youngest two with good fun and good food. Of course the other boys got some good stuff too while I school shopped for them and brought back some cool toys. It felt great to come home and be a complete family again.

David and Grama one week after surgery.

Makatuus playland in AZ.

WE met Auntie Terri and played for a few hours. It was a fun place and the games were a big hit.

Lunch with the missionaries

We got to see Elder Lino from Hawaii while we were in Phoenix. He only lived 5 minutes from my parents house. WE ate at the five N diner for Lunch with the elders on one of their lighter scheduled days.. They are on bikes and arrived hot, sweaty, and ready to GRUB!! We are soo proud of Elder Lino.

Build a Bear in AZ!

The cast finally came off

Blake was sooooooooo happy to finally get that dumb cast off. It had completely ruined his soccer season AND his beach and swimming fun. The day before it was to come off, we went to the beach and let him swim. When the Doctor cut his cast off it was full of Sand. WE all had a good laugh although I don't think Doc was too happy. Oh well, that's life with a boy!!
