Young Women's Bike Trip

Our Bailee! I have such a special feeling for this beautiful girl~ She was my first grandchild! I remember the day she was born, how happy I was when I saw her sweet little dimples!

Taryn & Leslie went on the 18 mile bike ride with the Young Women in their ward~

Bailee & friends--I love this tree in the background!

Storie & Kora in Hula skirts~

The little Hula girls are looking at my humming birds~ Looks like they're dancing~

Storie~


Kora!





Storie & Kora didn't want to take the Hula skirts off---after they left, I found grass all over my house~ At that rate, they won't have skirts anymore~

Halloween 2011

Mallorie & Kolby/ Halloween 2011



Anabeth was Tinkerbell--With sippy cup! ha!

Nolan was a little pirate~ But a very sleepy one!


Can everyone guess who Storie was??

Audrey & Little Red Riding hood~ Storie said she was "Breakfast on Tiffanies"


Cute little Red Riding Hood~ I might eat her up~~


Storie & Kora~

Myrle dressed up to hand out candy to the kids~ Some were scared, and didn't want to get any from him. One little girl marched up, big as you please, and after getting her candy she said "Thanks, Santa Clause".

Trenton looking really scary, and not at all like himself~Kodi did a great job painting his face, much better than a mask!

Dane made a cute little race car driver!!

Kodi said that as soon as someone gave Dane some candy, he stood right there at the door, and unwrapped it, and ate it~~ They had a hard time explaining to him, that you put it in your bag/pumpkin and saved it for later~

Trevor was not happy about being Jacob~~ Fortunately the weather was very nice and warm, so he didn't get cold while out trick or treating~~Still waiting for pictures from the rest of the grand kids~

Maui rainbows

Our resort was very nice, but the view from the balcony wasn't as good as I'd hoped. There were always alot of boats out in the bay area around our hotel~
There was almost a rainbow everyday~



Hana Dog

I wish you could see this dog closer~ We stopped at a little roadside fruit stand (which I love) anyway, there was this dog just lying on his back/ posing!! He didn't move much the whole time we were there~ We picked up dried mango (one of my favorites) coconut candy, which is nothing more than baked coconut with some brown sugar sprinkled on it. The fresh fruit was amazing!! I ate way too much pineapple--It cleaned me out nicely! ha!

Hana





Road to Hana





Very blue waters~
This is sugar cane~ I've laughed and laughed at my Kilee, she thought it was corn~

I couldn't believe how large the leaves were on all the plants!

I love how these clouds just roll in~ This is just below a volcano crater~ It was very dry & volcanic up there~ Ha! But the ocean views were amazing!

Windy


Plumeria

I have a plumeria plant in Az, trying to get it to grow==doubt I'll ever get it to look like the ones in Maui~ They are strange plants, in the winter you put them in the garage and don't water them--Myrle killed several of mine, because he insisted they needed water~Mine are still in pots of course, so once they get large they should do well in the backyard. Myrle has a cousin in Houston who grows them, he has several, this is where we got our clippings~They have a Plumeria Society--and actually register the plants!~~ Oh my! Anyway, maybe someday mine will grow--if my little grandchildren will stop pulling off the leaves~ ha!
