LUAU......CRAB.......Beach.......Mormon Battalion.......FUN

Well well, it's been a while....but memories have been made....I am trying so hard to keep up on this massive scrapbook journal but it isn't easy. I'm trying so hard to put in the most memorable things so I can soon print books for the kids. This past weekend was one of them for sure. We were invited by Katie and Waki our neighbors that have become Grandparents to CA (where they are from) to watch their nephew (worlds champ in fire dancing) in a Luau. WE HAD A BLAST.....

It Started off with swimming at the motel, always so much fun. IT was Russ and I with our kids, Grandma Marcia and Dani and Wade and their Kids.

Then later that evening we went to the Resort where the Luau was held. It was amazing, Waki's brother is over all the dancers, here, Disneyland and Polynesian Culture Center in Hawaii, they are super talented. Waki danced himself many moons ago. We had a pig roast, Ate the best food ever and watched the dancers.......OH and surprise surprise they called up my mom, dani and I to dance with them......They had it planned the whole time and boy was it a hoot, my mom was actually super good, but Dani and I joked our way through it....

Madi showing off all her Lays.....super cute isn't she

OK this picture above is hilarious, I asked a cute worker there to take our picture, he didn't speak english and well lets just say he cut off half the group, all the kids below

We just love these two, Katie and Waki Leaitaua. They treat our kids like their own and Russ and I like their kids. We are so greatful to have met them. They both come from amazing backgrounds. They are such hidden treasures that we are so greatful we found. We love you Both.....
