We went over to the Zillman’s on Sunday for some Memorial Day fun!  Mike cooked kabobs for everyone, Susie had awesome appetizers, and we partied it up!

It took Rose a while to get used to the water… she just did not know what to think!  Noelle and Malia were having races across the pool in their inner tubes… it was so cute seeing them having so much fun together!

Here’s the kids enjoying their “chicken.”  Anna Kate said, “Daddy, I love your chicken!”  It was really pork and beef, but as long as she was enjoying it, we didn’t care what she called it.  Anna Kate is our picky eater!

 

This is Malia being her little amazing self! (with her Daddy’s help)

This is Noelle loving her “special attention.”  Any time she gets one on one time with either of us, she always says, “This is my turn for special attention!” 

 

Here is Rose trying out her Christmas present, lol!  We are going to buy it from the Zillmans if Malia outgrows it by Christmas… we love hand me downs!  Here is Rose wiping her face with her napkin.  We told her to do it, and lo and behold, she did!  She’s starting to follow lots of directions… it’s so neat seeing her wheels turn!

This is the Zillmans beloved dog, Kukui.  The girls always call her “Kack-koo-e!”  She’s a calm and gentle dog.  We’d claim her!

 

We always talk about Rose’s black hair… so I thought I’d show you a picture of the back of her head from the week she was born (2/11/11), so you can compare it to now in the picture on the left… it’s getting so light, like the other girls’ hair did!  So strange!

 

These girls were being so giddy and silly tonight!!!

 

We had a wonderful day off enjoying our freedoms!  Thank you to all who have served to protect them!
