Seeing Ami off to Hawaii

My two oldest ones pictured above before my son, Ami heads

off to Hawaii to work with my uncle. I'm so proud that Ami 

has chosen to put in his papers to serve his mission this December. 

A couple of weeks ago he received his Melchizedek priesthood 

along with his bestie, Braxton Tuiono and it was a joyous time 

for both our families. 

My dad thought that it would be great for Ami to meet his 

cousins in Hawaii and work with his uncle to save up for his 

mission. Ami was kinda sad to leave, so am I. But, I believe

this will build his character. I told him it won't be that long. 

His little brother told me last night that his big brother must

be homesick and that we should send him back home. I 

agree, but we'll give him two weeks. If he doesn't like it there 

we can always send him back. I miss him already and hope 

he's making wise choices, helping out at the house and cleaning

up after himself. 

The Latest Updates

Visits to the duck pond 

It's been a while since I've been on here to update my page. 

So far, I've finally gotten a job received my first pay check 

last Thursday, paid my tithing on Sunday and took the kids 

out to the drive-ins to watch Rise of the Planet of The Apes

movie and Cowboys and Aliens. We got to the movies late

Saturday night and caught the last of Cowboys and Aliens,

and the Planet of The Apes on time. 

I also went coupon shopping with my mom on Saturday 

night before I went with the kids, so it was really great 

spending some quality time with her talking and stuff. 

Nesi feeding the ducks, we even saw a peacock on 

the other side walking around. 

 I was tagged on Facebook last week through our 

Olympus High Class Page 90-91. We had our 20 year class reunion this 

past weekend at the hotel and get togethers during the week I guess. I 

couldn't go due to work. Good to see most of my classmates pictures 

of them and their families. 

The week before we made a care package for Elder Moeaki [above] 

he's serving here in Utah and my daughter was super excited  to 

bump in to him at the park with him and his companion. Happy day 

for her. 

Here's our latest trips from the last month or so. Our last haul from 

Saturday night 8/13/11 will be posted tonight after work with the 

breakdown. 

So many things to say yet not enough time. I've got to get ready for 

work. So I guess I'll catch up with you guys later tonight after work.
