Had some windy days lately so we went up to the park for some kite action.

Burke is fascinated by the Zero and he bought me this model in an attempt to bring me over to the dark side....

Punahou Carnival !
Take a look at the slideshow from this year's trip to the Punahou Carnival. Kids had a great time. First rollercoaster ride (still a kid one, but bumpy and loud AND they got to be in the front car - gonna be some riders).
Kim's off to Japan for three weeks next Monday, which means that the kids will be surviving on a diet of:
- PB&J
- PB&honey
- Eggs, scrambled
- Eggs, hard boiled
- Eggs, fried over easy
- Hot dogs/spam/vienna sausage
- Canned vegetables
- Bagels
- Toast
- Toasted Bagels
On the bright side, they'll be all sorts of GTMNH* mischief that we can get into. We've already bought a new lion for Chinese New Year and cymbals to scare away evil spirits and any semblance of a peaceful household. The museum's new exhibit is opening on February 24th - get to use all that footage that we shot in China. Get to do a DVD that we are gonna make everybody watch before they get to enter the gallery. Very unusual for us - hope it works.
*GTMNH: Good thing Mom's not here
Latest model completed - Spitfire
Best one yet. Getting the hang of it. It's a good thing that I'm already married with kids since this is pure poison...."Hi I'm Brad"..."Hi, I'm (insert name), what do you like to do?" "Make model airplanes...hey where are you going?"
Kuanoni picks the perfect day to visit
- 7 ripe Granny smiths
- + 2 willing hands
- + 1 apple corer/peeler/slicer
- = Apple Brown Betty in about 1 hour!
Kuanoni is taller than Kim
Let me rephrase that, Kuanoni is quite a bit taller than Kim. Next: Kalei
Sisters
Shake-and-Bake (left) and Sally are getting reaquainted. Her owner is in Iraq and Uncle Ryan is dogsitting for a while. The kids ask if S & B can come over every day after school. OH THE POODLES.
Coconut huskers
Jake lends a hand at husking coconuts. Lily and Jake got their first taste of straight from the nut milk and meat.

NEW AND IMPROVED ! sort of
That time already - unreal. About 10 minutes until the sun goes down one last time for this year. Kim has a ginormous pot of bouliabassise on the stovetop, kids are playing with toys, Fugazi is playing on iTunes to set the blogging mood, Sally Sparkle is doing whatever she does around this time of day. So, basically, it's all good.
Google/Blogger/Picassa have changed everything on me and I'm trying out new "features" (read: bugs). That first picture of Lily will take you to a Gallery of pictures that you can view like a slideshow. Woohoo ! Bells and whistles ! WHen you get right down to it, posting pictures got a lot more complicated, but whatever...I think now I can post audio files too so I'll experiment with that. Gotta add links to YouTube as well. So much more to do in '07.
Oh. And congrats on being named Time Magazine's Person of the Year©. What an honor. Just don't let it go to your head. It's not like a Grammy or something. Guess Mohammad Yunis shot his wad on getting the Peace Prize - bet they took him out of the running after that - lucky for you. Not that you don't deserve it, but I mean raising MILLIONS out of poverty, that's a helluva trick, and what exactly did you win the prize for again....? Blogging? Posting videos? Well, whatever, good on ya. Keep up the good work.
