addicted to the DS

everywhere he goes. and i mean everywhere.

a little rain

make that a whole lotta rain! this week so cal's prediction- storm, storm, storm. today was a holiday so we didn't have work/school. when the rain started to hit hard daddy made paper boats and 'raced' them along the curb. the kids loved the idea of putting on some jackets and playing in the rain. the funny thing is, my dad used to do the same thing w/me. we'd walk for what seemed liked hours racing these homemade paper boats. the rain was a bonus. on a day where most parents wouldn't let their kids step out, my dad and muelu encouraged it.

after some paper boat racing, we headed to the park. yes, the park. muelu took us to the park where he would boogy board down the grass hills in the rain. the kids had a blast. unfortunately, the rain slowed down, but they got some good 'air' going down the wet, muddy, grass hills. we go back this week if it rains again, where will definitely bring my camera.

we are now home enjoying the warm heat, coffee and some tv :)

mr. personality

my funny man. kainoa asked me to take his pictures (w/my phone..). it's so hard to stay mad at him w/these faces. he'll quickly say sorry and try to kiss you or give you the big bottom lip look. these faces are his funny faces. and they really are ;)

the end of the tornadoes

the tangerine tornadoes that is. kymora's soccer team had their end of the season party/award ceremony. we will miss this team. it was the best team we played for. our coach was great and the team mom was awesome. kymora learned so much this season. wish us luck for next season for a new team will be put together.

2010

i can't believe it's already 2010. we rung in the new year the best way ever- at the laker game! well, we weren't there at midnight Dec 31, but we spent new years day at the staples center. mihan and the girls came down and we had a good time. believe it or not, it was my first time there. kobe shot a 3 at the last second to beat Sacramento. kymora, tala, and malaya were so happy. it was funny watching them get into the game.
laya and kyks after they finally won. i think the stress made the girls' eczema act up .. haha.

we love when our biggity biggity bay visitors come!
