Birthday Chief

It Micah's Birthday!!!!   Eleven years old...oh my!   Time has seriously flown by.  Micah was woken up to a breakfast in bed.  I love to see their faces when we come in singing Happy Birthday.  It is so funny the silly grin they have.  

 Here is my little helper cleaning up the breakfast mess when all the boys went to school.  

 After school we took Micah to celebrate by watching a movie and then playing at the arcade.  They had fun with the air hockey and the other prize giving games.  

 After the arcade we all went to Carl's Jr. for dinner and then home again for cake and presents.  

 Micah loved his Basketball from Nan and his Soccer stuff from Grammy and Grandpa.  It was so cute because Micah is so appreciative of all he gets.  He told me.... "Mom this was the best birthday ever!"  Happy Birthday Micah!  

A Steal!

Look what I picked up at the store!  What a steal!  I scored!!!!!

Vatia Hike

So this post is a little out of order but I just got these pictures from my BFF Christine.  This is the hike Jason and the boys went on with my friends while I was working.  They said they had so much fun.  Check these pictures out.

 

 My friends: Lana, Christine, Vanessa and Ngaire.  

Jason carried Riley on his back all the way up the trail!

Jason and the boys.  Brady, Alec, Riley, Micah, Victor and Oliver.  Not sure where Skyler is in all these pictures.  He must have been too tired to smile.  ;)

Pizza Anyone?

We miss having pizza.  So this past Labor Day we had a little get together with friends and decided to do Pizzas!!!!!!  Take a look at these beauties!!!!  Don't they look like they came from a pizzeria?  Now I couldn't have do this without Ipo.   And yep... they were as delicious as they look.   Did I tell you they were cheese stuffed crust?  Oh yes.   Yummy!

 In addition to the good food we had great company with the Hemalotos, Ho Chings, and Porters.  Swimming, volleyball, games, and just hanging out.

Ipo taking a well deserved dip after slaving over the pizza making.  ;)

Porter boys swimming along.

 Riley looks like he really wants to join the volleyball game the big kids started.

 This was an attempt to take Tolo down.  Someone else got taken down in the process.  

 Micah is always game for Volleyball.

 Skyler.... always up to something. 

 This is the cool down version of Volleyball.  

Everyone had fun and enjoyed themselves.  We will definitely have to do a Pizza party again.

My Gift

So I recently celebrated a birthday and I told my boys that all I wanted from them was to be able to take pictures of them without their complaining.  So a few days before school got back in I collected my present.   It was nice.  A little grumbling but not like usual.  It was a dream!  I also tried not to over do it and I got a couple nice pictures.  Check it out.

 Thank you boys for a beautiful gift!
