Morning jog photo shoot

This morning I thought I would try to job up a hill and found some good edge of shade lighting 

so I had to stop and take pictures :)

This is what happens when I ask Kali to make a funny face :)

10 second rule

Kali wanted me to do a paternity shoot for her.  

Kali and all of her girlfriends like to pretend they are pregnant :)

p.s. she posed herself.

Krew loves to copy Kali, when ever she does a handstand or cartwheel, 

Krew does his headstand.

Krew has been so cute lately giving hugs and kisses.  I wanted to get a picture of him making his kissy face, but he wouldn't do it for me, but Kali did.  Thanks Kali.

He did however make this face for me, it is my favorite :)

This color of plumeria is my favorite and these are my favorite chocolates.

Water FUN!

This afternoon we had a pool party and water balloon fight.

Angie filled up 100 balloons and the kids used them all in about 3 seconds :)

Hanging out in the pool











Krew was having the time of his life!

While the girls cleaned up the mess, the boys took off on their next adventure.

A day of food :)

Kava Roots. 

 Oh, how I love this place and their yummy, acai bowls.  They are AMAZING!

This sign. Who does not love this sign?  

It drives mainland people crazy and makes island people smile :)

Kali has really been into twisting her tongue lately ???

Next stop, Pearl Ridge Mall, where you can get these cool push carts that keep the children entertained for minutes on end :)

Pretzels, bite size, yummmmm.

We took the kids on the monorail to head over to uptown Pearl Ridge to see our friend Crystal at Macy's.  She works at the Shiseido counter and offered free facial massages and makeovers.  Something Kim and I definitely wanted to do, but decided we should try on a different day, when we didn't have our kids with us :)

Last stop Cold Stone, where Kali, Krew and I shared my favorite, cake batter ice cream with brownie, almonds and fudge.

LOVE IT!

We wanted to see the big bug exhibit they are putting on and we pretty much saw most of it, but they didn't officially open it up until Saturday, so we may have to go back.  Krew and Nate thought it was really cool!

Good BYE Smokey! :(

Another morning pounding the pavement.  

It was easier this morning and felt really good.  I love waking up and going straight outside with the kids and getting some fresh air.  I feel the longer it takes us to get outside in the morning the more we just drag our feet and have lazy mornings watching cartoons and hanging out in our pajamas.

After my run we had some cereal for breakfast and as you can see Krew's ended up all over the floor.  I went to get the broom and he LOVES to help, but gets mad at me when I don't let him.  Luckily I have a smaller broom for him:)

I laid Krew down for a nap and Kali and I got to work baking.

We first made waffles.

She helped poor and mix all the ingredients.

Next we made banana muffins.  Very scrumptious.

Kali was such a good little helper.

After Krew got up from his nap it was off to the playground; where Krew loves to run off to any chance he gets, and get in the swing.

Lili and Kali doing their tricks :)

Krew has mastered this playground, he is such a little climber.

 

Then is was off to Temple beach to cool off from all of this HOT weather.

Then we all headed to Haleiwa to say goodbye to Aaron's beloved smokey:

You will be missed!
