My sister now lives in Hawaii! Her and her husband flew out last Thursday, and they came over to see us the night before. The kids and I turned it into a little mini "go away" (that is what Rachel kept calling it) party Hawaiian style. I started looking up Hawaiian recipes, but I am a very simple, not experimental cook, so I settled on Sweet and Sour chicken. It turned out to be very good, I was shocked! haha I also made a Pineapple Hawaiian cake that was really good too. We went down to Dollar Tree and got a couple of decorations and the pineapple straws to drink our Hawaiian punch, and the kids made a couple of signs to hang on the door. Yes, it was all cheesy, but it was exciting for us.
I am so glad they got to come over before they left. We hadn't seen Nick in a while, and the kids LOVE playing with him. He is so sweet to play with them, even Z. I love my sissy Kara, and will really miss her, but she is having a fun and exciting time, I am happy for her!
I like this one of Nick and Z
Noah took these pictures....they crack me up, and love the baby wipe box behind my head. Do you know, my dad slept through all this chaos!
I don't know what is up with these pics being so small....but this bottom pic, is so THEM....she will love me for posting this, I am sure.

Awh, they are finally headed out! I remember her talking about it when I came over. She is so sweet, and that was so sweet of you to throw a going away party! I know you and the kiddos will sure miss her!
ReplyDeleteHi Maury
ReplyDeleteI have enjoyed catching up with your blog today. Looks like you had a great Easter with your family. The pictures of your kids are beautiful and they look to be having fun painting the eggs.
About the deflated balloon feeling. Yes I know it well. We have looked forward to our trip for such a long time I think we all feel like the deflated balloon at the moment.

Those were so good to see. I hope they are enjoying the new adventure.
