Life goes on

We went to Fremont to watch these three kids while their parents were vacationing.

While Papa repaired bicycles, Tanner was right there "helping."

 We decided to remove the door in the downstairs guest bedroom and replace it with a window.   So the afternoon after Mormon Helping Hands day, the construction (deconstruction?) began.  As of today, (May 19) it's all done.  I got a room-darkening blind for it, but now I need to shop for window treatments.  And decide what color.

 Yes, I actually bought this new toilet seat.  Love it!  David didn't mind either.  So there!

 Three weeks before Girls Weekend, I got David to help me decorate for the luau theme.  (Is he a great husband or what?) We put all the wall decorations up on Monday night with painters tape.  Then Tuesday morning we put it all up again (drats!) with staples.

 It ended up taking me three weeks to decorate my house.

 The "spread."  We started the festivities off with food.  Best way to start a party.

 These three little guys got to come this year.  Benjamin (one year old in July), Tanner (2 in July), and Matthew (one in August).

 My train kept them entertained.  As did the palm tree with pineapple lights.

 Me, Michelle, Laura, Kami, Carly, Cheri

 My friend Hilari came over one evening to teach us a hula dance. 

 Saturday morning we helped out at the Revlon Run.

Getting these three to hold still for a picture was like herding cats.

So this past Monday, I undecorated the house.  It looks kinda boring now!  And today David painted in the guestroom, so it looks great.  

Looking forward to summer.

Aloha 'Oe.
