Well it's been a few weeks since I have blogged.  There has been 2 birthday parties.  Kadin had a foot ball party and Austin had a pool party.  The pool party sure keeps the kids busy and I would recommend that kind of a party to any one.  It's December and only a few more weeks till Christmas.  I love this time of year.  All the beautiful lights and decorations that are on homes and businesses.  Austin, Emma, and Kadin came over last night to help decorate the tree.  They did a great job.  

Halloween in Hawaii

It seems like such a long time ago since we were in Hawaii, buy in reality it was only 2 weeks ago. Ray and I went there for Halloween this year. He has been wanting to go there for this holiday for a long time. Well we finally made it. We stayed at the Marriott resort in Maui. There is a little town called Lahina a couple of miles away and every year they have a street party. There must have been hundreds of people in costumes. Some of the costumes were amazing. Of course all of you who know me know that I was thinking while we were there how much fun it would have been to have all my kids and grandkids there. They would have loved seeing all the costumes and had a really good time. Maybe in a couple of years we can all go back. We stayed there a week and spent a lot of time at the pool or walking on the beach. It was very relaxing. We will be going there again in Feb and are really looking forward to it (Janelle, Raymond and Desire will be joining us, YEA!).
