The lighthouse

We went to a lighthouse and saw Mr. B. Herm -- Mr. B's aunt -- told us it was 55 feet high (at the top). It was very hot up at the top with the big light. When we took a picture by the light, it made rainbows on our faces! Next we will climb Diamond Head on New Years Day. Hau'oli Makahiki Hou! Love, Maile

surf girls

We went surfing with our friend Jenn and Mama. We caught big waves and had plate lunch. Maile said "I do not want lunch. I want ice cream." After we had lunch, my mom said "Let's go to Lapperts." We saw Mr. B at a lighthouse. THE END. Love, MAKANA

It's like Chrismakah around here!

When leaving for the holidays, somehow we always end up having 6-8 days of presents ... what fun! We went to Meghan and Sarah's to start of the festivities, then had the cousins over (and present opening), then Grandma and Grandpa (and more opening), and then we got to open gifts from Mama and Papa ... soon Santa will arrive in both California and Hawaii ! From the snowman follies (thanks Auntie Kara) to the fleece (Auntie Mags) to the Snugglies (Grandma) to the soft new jammies (Kiwi and Sarah)... we are set for 2010. More to come from the islands!!!
