Merry Christmas Girls!!!

Our annual Christmas GNO:-) I take the girls shopping every year for their Christmas and let them pick out what they would like. They are a lot alike in what they wanted, makeup, purses, jewelry, and of course clothes. I had so much fun:-)

We first go to dinner and it was so good, Texas Roadhouse!!!

My beautiful Stacie, she has been through so much but still tries to think positive through it all. Stac is such a wonderful mother. I am so blessed to have you in my life you teach me so much:-)

Then there's my sassy Brittnie. She also hasn't been doing well with her health but she also keeps a smile. She also is a wonderful mother and has taught me to let loose a little.

I am so blessed to have my girls and son they are what keeps me going. I love being a mother it is the best calling my heavenly father has given me.

Decorating the Tree

My mom loves to decorate for Christmas. This year the older kids helped.

My mom is really picky so she used a ruler to show them where she wanted things. Me and Don thought it was funny:-)

Cute Noelle helping with the tree.

Cute Ipo and Kaili helping:-) I'm so thankful my mom is so involved in their lives. She is one of the sweetest people I know. I love her so much:-)

Misc. Pics:-)

Thanksgiving Day and my 50th birthday. It will be 11 years before it will fall on my birthday again because of leap year, I will be 61 that is weird to me I use to think of this age as ready to die...LOL

Keo with his cheesecake he made. I love him so much:-)

I had Stacie's card and found the last 3 pics on it. Aja ready for school, she is beautiful!!!

Stac & Kaili, not sure where they are but I thought it was a cute pic.

Love this pic, again not sure where they are but I love how Kaili has the diaper bag and walking with Kya. I love pictures.

Mt. Evans Gone!!!

On Dec 10th it will be a year since Don's Gastric Bypass. The time has gone so quickly. He now weighs 201 lbs the doctor says he is doing great. I know this has added years to his life along with happiness. The grand kids have no more Mt. Evans to climb but they would rather have their papa around longer:-)

Birthdays, Sleepovers & Tired!!!

It's Kaili's turn this year for me to do her birthday party. I love to do this because the kids know this is their time with Nana:-) This is her invitations, front, back, and inside the box is 2 little cupcakes. The theme she choose is "Kaili's Cakes". They will be decorating their own cakes or large cupcake and making cake pops. The cake pops are so fun to make.

I love how cute and little they are:-)

Girls birthday dinner

They are so cute together

Sasha & Aja had a sleepover. I guess it's so much more fun to make us look crazy...LOL

We had a fun time:-) So thankful for my family!!!

Happy Birthday Kaili!!!!

Happy Birthday Kaili!!! She is 10 and so beautiful, smart, bold and loves to be involved in everything. I love this age:-)

Happy Halloween!!!

Cute Noelle our niece. We had Sunday dinner and Noelle and her brother Ben came. It is so busy from Sept. 28th to Nov. 25th we have 8 birthdays. By the time it hits my birthday which is Nov. 25th, I don't want to see another cake...LOL

Ben being funny:-)

Sash and Ben the kids seem to have a lot of fun together. Kaili, Ku'uipo & Noelle are 12 days apart and they love being together:-)

What a cute cowgirl.

2 cute witches:-)

Brans buys all the candy every year and he is not cheap...LOL...Keo and Sash are so close, I'm so thankful for that:-)

I didn't know Keo pointed the gun at Kya. I love how cute they are.

Brittnie's friends came with them and this is their cute little boy Colton he is 10 months. This was a great Halloween. I love to be with my family and friends:-)

"Sweetheart"

I love these pics of Ipo. Ku'uipo was so cute she said "I felt just like a princess". The photo shoot lasted for 6 hours. She will be doing some acting and modeling. She had her first audition on Friday.

Sooo cute:-)

Growing up way too fast:-(

She reminds me so much of Stacie, not afraid of anything. Ku'uipo loved doing the play "Annie" and wants to do a lot more with acting. I'm so proud of her:-)

Kev I know where all your money is going to go. Just as well give her the credit card now...LOL

Dinner with a Birthday Theme!!!

All the cute ladies 72-94 years, all of you look great:)

My mom is 74 almost 75 and I think she is so beautiful, inside and out. We have her invite all her friends and treat them like queens. We started this last year. Last year we did a really elegant dinner but this year I wanted it to be a birthday party for everyone.

Carefree smile:-)

Make a wish mom

Cherished moments:-)

We had everyone make a wish and sang "Happy Birthday"

You can't have a birthday without presents. They each received cake pops, loaf of carrot bread, hand embroidered (cupcake) dish towels, bracelets made by Stac & Ipo :-)

The dinner was yummy!!! We had Cesar salad, zuppa toscana soup, bread sticks, fruit bowl, lasagna, and pumpkin spice cheesecake. It was really fun for me and Don, we made everything from scratch except the noodles...LOL

Look how much they look alike... It was a blessing Stacie brought Ipo to help out. She helped fan the oven smoke away from all 13 ladies. We forgot to put foil under the pans of lasagna, thank goodness we caught it early. I think the ladies have lost their sense of smell because they didn't say a word...LOL... The dinner was a lot of planning and work but the joy it gave to my mom was worth it:-)
