VIDEO: Connor and his friend Larsen surfing...pretty amazing!
Larsen is on the left, Connor is on the right...
Surf's up! Connor officially went surfing on Sunday...friends invited us out, they have special foam surfboards which are great for beginners...and Connor loved it! We're going to buy a board now too!
 |
| Paddling out with Scott |
 |
| Getting ready |
 |
| Look at that technique! |
 |
| Larsen is on the left with his dad, Connor is on the right with Scott! |
 |
| Connor was upset that he didn't stand up on the board...but he was halfway there! He did so great! I explained to him, that it takes grown ups a long time to learn to stand up on a surf board...so we'll see...maybe we'll become a surfing family...well...I will take pics while the boys surf anyway! |
VIDEO: Amelia going in circles...sooooo cute! And some crawling action...she's all over the place...today she would not stay on the carpet...she kept going to the concrete which of course we don't want but she had good control and didn't get hurt...but it's nervewracking...but it's a good video clip anyway! We've got to get the baby jail set up on the carpet...it's a big octogon shaped supersized baby gate that I had for Connor and we need to get out for her now!

We officially have a Kindergartener in the house!
 |
| He actually agreed to take pictures...that's very out of character...I think he was kind of excited to start school today! |
 |
| a pic with Granny and sister |
 |
| Little Mia Grace watching her brother (yes...still trying out nicknames : ) |
 |
| at his desk...maybe I was a little embarrassing taking pictures in the classroom! |
 |
| He is super excited about the pet tortoise in the kindergarten classroom! |
 |
| Sitting down doing his work...wrote his name and drew a self portrait! |
 |
| He drew himself on a skateboard! |
Happy Birthday Granny! We had family fun at the 'Iolani Palace, Rainbow Drive-in and Leonard's Bakery!
 |
| No traditional birthday cake here...instead, a fresh Malasada from Hawaii's famous Leonard's Bakery! A malasada is a Portuguese style donut made famous in Hawaii by Leonard's bakery...interesting story on their website: http://www.leonardshawaii.com/ourstory.html |
 |
| at the 'Iolani Palace waiting for our tour to begin |
 |
| have to wear booties to enter the palace! |
 |
| Amelia wasn't allowed...so Grandpa Clyde stayed outside with her...she seemed pretty happy when we came out so he did great! |
 |
| On our way out...this is the front of the palace |
 |
| After the palace, we dined at a local favorite...the Rainbow Drive-In is celebrating it's 50th anniversary...it was featured on Food Network's Diners, Drive-ins and Dives show a while ago...we first discovered it in the Spring with the Becker cousins : ) |

At the palace...it was Kamaiana Sunday...so locals and Active military get in for free...but it was really busy so we couldn't go on the tour together...mom and I went first...then Connor and Scott...their tour guide gave the extended tour...a little boring for Connor but Scott said that he did great!
