Random catch up

Hello Everyone. Sorry I haven't posted anything for so long. We have been having trouble transferring pictures from the camera card to the computer. All is well in Hawaii. Kyleigh is having a great time at preschool and can't wait until Tuesday and Thursday come around. She loves ballet, and just yesterday Daddy came home early from work so he could go watch her at ballet class. She also loves the beach and would be there every day if she could. Katelyn loves the beach too, but it wears her out.



Katelyn is growing bigger and bigger. Just the other day we found her fifth tooth. Her personality is busting out. She is a girly girl like her sister. She loves shoes, bracelets, and purses. The other night she got ahold of some glittery lip gloss and had it smeared ALL over her face. She was pretty proud of herself. She thinks it is fun that she is getting big enough to do some of the things her big sister does, like play on the swingset.

Rusty and I just took another golf lesson. It was our third of four lessons. We learned how to drive the ball. Our teacher has all kinds of fun ways to learn, including the luau swing where we carry the tray, slap the pig, spear the fish and pull the net in, then stop for our kodak moment. If anyone needs golf lessons on Kauai we can recommend a great instructor.

We continue to volunteer at the humane society. The last time we went we made quite the scene. We took a dog out on a leash to the courtyard. I let Kyleigh hold the leash and the dog pulled it out of her hands. The courtyard is supposed to be enclosed but a delivery person had the door propped open and the dog escaped. Luckily the kennel staff was right there and they were right on it. They had the dog back very soon and I got a lecture on how to hold a leash. I don't think we will venture out to the courtyard again for a while.


Do you know what the picture below says? Ten points if you can figure it out.




This is the sign we made for Kyleigh's half birthday party. It says Happy Birthday Kyleigh, with only half the letters. We celebrated her half birthday on April 26th. We had been stuck inside for the week before because we were sick. We needed something fun to do, so we planned a half birthday party. We had half moon shaped cookies for desert and half sopapillas to make navajo tacos. Mike and Holly joined us. We couldn't sing happy birthday on a half birthday so we said "Hap, Hap, happy half birthday," and of course no presents at a half birthday (although KyKy tried to weasel some presents out of it). We are looking forward to my mom and dad visiting us next week. We are going to meet them in Oahu for 4 days so we are very excited for that, too. In May some friends of ours from Silver City, James and Vicki Hill, will visit. The invitation is open to anyone. We would love to have you!
