The Candy Makers!!

We had the funnest time with all the kids making candy. I found these cute aprons for all the kids. It made the cooking experience more fun. Our niece Noelle also came.

The recipe I had called for vinegar and Sasha thought it smelt yucky LOL.

Then we all played restaurant and Kee'Onu was taking Don's difficult order.

Then the kids all did skits for us they made up. They were soo cute. I love all of their ages.

Then we had to do makeup Even thou we usually only do it with the girls Kee'Onu and Ke'Lao wanted to do it also. As you can see it was more like a horror film on some of us. The best part is there was no fighting and all 7 kids went right to bed when it was time:-) I am so grateful for a wonderful husband that enjoys this time as much as I do.

Beautiful San Diego!!

This beach was beautiful, it was called Jolla beach. It had seals on the rocks and in the water.

I think I will put Don in dance lessons LOL!!

Keo is so cool and cute:-)

What a cute family, well they have to be, they belong to me LOL.

Kee'Onu and Papa on the pier.

Going to San Diego!!

I know I haven't posted for awhile, but I have been really busy. I will post as soon as I get home from San Diego. We are going to a beach condo with Kevin, Stacie, and the kids and will be doing only one thing, playing at the beach:-) I'm kind of sad because we are leaving Branson on his birthday, so if you see him wish him Happy Birthday November 10Th. Love Ya, Cindy

Kaili's New Hat!!

Kaili just learned how to make a hat with a loom. Kaili has always picked up things so fast.

My mom taught her how to make the hat, I have never met anyone as sweet and loving as my mom:-)

Don had to try the hat on, great fit!!

This is the finished product. I love how she put the flowers on it.

Sweet Little Aja :-)

"I'm ready to start my pumpkin nana"

Aja really doesn't like to get dirty, so this was a yucky job for her LOL. She went to get a towel inside so she could keep wiping her hands.

Aja wanted her pumkin to be happy not scary,so we made it happy!!

Grandbaby # 7

Grand baby #7 is on the way:-) I'm sooo excited and sooo scared at the same time. As most of you know Stacie's oven shuts off about 6 to 10 weeks early. She also has to give herself Lovenox shots twice a day to make sure she doesn't get a blood clot. This will be a time for a lot of faith and prayer.
I really don't like odd numbers so there has to be 1 more somewhere LOL.
